"wristy feelings"
"One more thought about the "Lag Swing":
It feels a bit "wristy" which seems far away to the TGM basics!
Is it a normal feeling or should I have frozen wrists?"


Yodeli - your feeling of wristy-ness are due to the wrists acting as free hinges - allowing you to experience the inertial forces during transition. If you have previously been using forearm muscles to cast from the top then your wrists will have felt "strong" but wrong!

Maybe what you are feeling is some increased wrist cock on transition to downswing - ie. float loading - but this is perfect way of learning lag sensation in pp3.

I think that when you focus on your right index finger sensation at transition - when you feel most wristy - you will notice that lag sensation is felt - as Comdpa says - on top of the shaft And nearer the Metacarpophalangeal joint of your index finger.

Yodas / 6b 's latest video about lag goes into this in perfect detail- great close up of yoda's pp3 at "end" versus "top". So easy to understand - AND it clears up 7-3 loading stuff too - ie. where should the right forearm be at top and end.

Get your pivot to do whatever it needs to do to hold that sensation as long into downswing and you will look like Comdpa, Sergio, Hogan, Yoda...
