"The Secret"

[drewitgolf]

I had a student that just was not able to apply the concept of Clubhead Lag. They understood the The Essence, had studied, 6-C-2-A, but were not able to execute it.

I finally said to him, "Stop trying to take the Clubface at the Ball". The Clubface is for Direction (Purpose) and Accuracy, not Force and Power. He looked at me, like he had just been hit up side the head with a Lagging Clubhead. Instantly, he was able to grasp the concept. I don't like to use negative orders, but sometimes you never know what goes on inside the "Grey Matter".

The player must be able to sense the Stressed Clubshaft through (usually the #3 Pressure Point). What about the shaft itself(flex, frequency, weight, etc.)? How much of a factor do you think this is in being able to produce, sense and sustain CLUBHEAD LAG?

Every freakin' week you flat knock one outtadapahk!!! You are a damn wizard of words, ruler of rap, not soft, not sucker, could never be a sap . . .

The above statement is PURE genius!!!

Tell us how you get people to "dismiss" the clubface please sir. You is one of the greatest Machinist of ALL time . . .

I won't say dismiss the Clubface, just put it in the Zone it was intended to be in. "The Zones are a natural division of the action and their identities must be maintained", said Mr. Kelley. I still like Hinge Action in Zone 3 (my opinion only); Ball Contol and direction. The Clubface makes three Actions, that is it. It isn't meant to be in Zone 2 (again my opinion). But when you are throwing the Clubface at the ball you are putting it there; along with a host of other undesirables. So in this case it wasn't just Clubhead Lag, but "Clubface Lag" (for lack of a better term) executing a Hinge Action; Left Hand Clubface, Right Hand Clubhead.

If your builing a house, do you first worry about puting a roof over your head, or doing the landscaping?

Per Kelley, the SECRET, with knowledge of plane line tracing, is general direction control.

Zone 3 is finesse direction control.

With understanding, a person will realize that it is not logical to first focus on the clubface (obviously NOT talking about the simple act of initially aiming the clubface - certainly you'd want to concern yourself with this). It is likely the person will want to act in a logical fashion.

So zone 2 is the clubhead and zone 3 is the clubface. Even though PP3 is in zone 3 it only senses the clubhead, while the motion of the arms should control the clubhead ? This is cool, thanks Drew.

But you do dismiss the clubHEAD no? via hit the ball with the pressure points?

Do you think a Swinger with all the Swivels using a Snap Release can focus on Hinge Action? Or does he just bring his Left Wrist in FLV and let CF do its thang?

You always hit the ball with the pressure points in your Hands (monitor your hands); that is key to The System. If the Clubhead is monitored directly your game and your wallet will suffer.

As for a Swinger it is their choice. "True Swingers" don't worry about Hinge Action. They let CF have its way with them; there easy.

Great post!

You made sense of Bucket's post when there was little sense to be made...

cf will not produce a hinge action.
