You just wait for what old Norrin Rad Silver Surfer comes up with on this one . . .

Drew Chapman speaks PAY ATTENTION . . . one of the best Machinists to crack a Yellow Book is never to be taken lightly.

Not drewitgolf . . . but I'll take a stab.

1. Misunderstanding of the amount of Loading required to generate a sustainable amount of Lag Pressure.

2. Steering

3. No patience at Top

4. Downstroke Blackout

5. Mind on clubhead not on Hands

6. Attempt to add acceleration rather than allowing CF to travel at the speed it demands

Yes my bucket full of chicken ... all good points.. but how bout for good players or maybe what do good players do to avoid over acceleration? like they will let certain things happen etc.

Experiment with the amount of loading you place on your pressure points. Load max then back off and see what amount you can sustain . . . It surprised me anyway what amount of loading produced the most CONSISTENT results with regards to compression and direction.

Monkey with it . . . I found less was more . . . but may not be that way for you.

for me.. swinging .... light pressure and tight lag is the best word i can describe. but would love to hear more

Thats the thing bucket, in TMG we are constantly told HEAVY is good, that theres a tendancy to strive for too much heavyness that you just can't get it to impact. It's like everything in life it's only good for you in moderation.

Also i think the quick start down for swingers can be misleading, For me anyway when i'm playing well my transition seems to take for ever, my hands feel like their hanging in the air. It requires patience and discipline. I think Fred Couples used to call it 'letting the air out', I like that.

Great post!

So, what is in your opinion the cause for overacceleration?

Essentially it starts with the hypnotic affects of the golf ball that baits you into making the shot, rather than making the motion. It should be the other way arround. Let the Motion make the Shot.

I'll add more later, but Mr. Bucket has hit the nail on the head relating to the effects of that little, white, motionless sphere.

A truly 'swung' set of educted hands can, in my view, feel both heavy, and light during the motion, especially with higher amounts of float loading.

As soon as you are 'loaded', you should feel heavy all the way to both arms straight, at the very least, in the pressure points - ultimately, feeling impact through the entire chain from feet to pressure point #3.

Begin learning the feels of each pressure point with a putter, left hand only, right hand only, both.

Thats probably the best word I heard this year !

Don't leave us hangin'! We'll be here waiting with baited breasts . . . I mean breath . . . always get that wrong for some reason.

Jeeze.. there are young kids here...

Good post EdZ. Something tells me you can play a bit.

I think my hands still have some way to go in their education.
