Not exactly answering your question . . . but I think Homer preferred Hitting because he COULD exact effort and lots of it . . . .you may not be actually "non-automatic" but you definitely will be actively releasing #1 . . . .which is a whole different feel than spinning the fly wheel. monebak.

spinning the flywheel
 

Please elaborate on "spinning the flywheel

Thanks

Thanks Bucket.

Good notes. I do feel the #1 actively straightening. And loving it. But I also notice my hand speed creeping up a little too. Maybe its just all the range time of late. As you mentioned Mr Kelley did say that hitting can with stand some extra effort. Luke also said once that we should shorten and slow our swings to the point just before we start to lose distance. I like this notion. Somewhere in all of this is the relationship between hand speed , release point and the Endless Belt's small pulley wheel.

Does the extra effort beget increased hand speed which begets a bigger pulley wheel necessarily? Making the hand speed and the effort all for not? Yoda when hitting appears to have a late hit and a punch elbow. Perhaps a grip change is required for this?

Sustaining Lag Pressure
 

Exactly right, Bucket. And I love the way you said it. Good stuff!

Lag Pressure.

Somewhat like that Texas cowboy's tombstone in a long-forgotten 'boot hill':

First I wasn't.

Then I was.

Now I ain't again.

The Lag Pressure is Loaded in Start Down and Delivered into Impact. Then, as the Right Elbow fully straightens in Follow-through and Thrust gives way to Momentum, the Lag Pressure simply ceases to exist.

Taking a line from General Douglas MacArthur:

"Old soldiers never die. They just . . . fade away."
