I have read past references to 'continuous Lag' in your circle theory.
With my attention diverted to other areas of your theory, I didn't do my
homework on this one. So, I really don't know how you apply this concept to
an actual Golf Stroke.

That said, what you have described above is Accumulator Lag -- as
opposed to Pivot Lag or Clubhead Lag -- the out-of-line
condition of the Flail's Swingle and Handle. And this Loaded Accumulated
Power must be Released in order to convert its potential energy
(energy of position) into kinetic energy (energy of motion).

Similarly, with Pivot Lag, the Lagging Components of the Pivot Train must
gradually overtake the Leading Components. This is the Sequenced Overtaking
of the multiple Pivot 'Centers,' i.e., the Feet, Knees, Hips and Shoulders
(6-C-0 and 6-M-1).

Only the Clubhead Lag -- the inertia of the orbiting Clubhead as
sensed through the #3 Pressure Point -- properly could be considered a
'continuous Lag around the Circle.' That is because, unlike its two
counterparts, only the Clubhead Lag has no Release Point (6-C-2-A). But...


This is not the Lag of the trailing Flail Swingle.
