Sweetspot Lag Creates Clubshaft Stress . . . In Several Directions

There obviously can be exceptions, but in the sense I know you mean it, the answer is yes.

But more correctly, it is the Sweetspot that lags, not Clubhead as a whole. The Sweetspot can be well up the Clubface, particularly in the deeper-faced Short Irons, and that Lag supercedes the overall Clubhead.
