Thank you Neil. I hope I'm getting it right. I've read every thread I could find about the #4 pressure point but I'm still a little confused. A few more practice sessions should prove helpful and clear a little more fog.

Don't think you have too much fog mate,it is just the feeling of the left arm against the chest.When the right shoulder drops (due to axis tilt)just FIRE THE FLYWHEEL!(unless your'e one of those "hitty" types)trace the plane line ALL THE WAY and....and with your short game. YOUR SWING TAKES -1.2SECONDS ?how long do you feel pp#4?IMHO H.K. preffered to monitor pp#3 because it was"in play"much longer.Again IMO if you have lag pressure in pp#3 and you are swinging-isn't pp#4already "loaded"?

I agree Neil. #4 Accumulator is almost automatic. I try to take #4 into impact but it releases as the right shoulder slows a little. No release for #3 until after Follow Through. The longer I can hold onto #4, the stronger the #3 lag and the heavier the hit. It feels like #4 and #2 Accumulators release almost simultaneously and #3PP increases as roll begins. This swing feels under control throughout with no throwaway. Overall, a smooth and heavy hit.

Daryl you are not saying you are not releasing acc#3 until after follow through are you?
Perhaps you guys could use an impact bag - I do it against the side of my bed(something I should do more of too). Keep hitting it in a continous motion back and through.
Whilst your hitting the bag you can concentrate on these things...
Do you feel the pressure against pp4?
Did I maintain a stationary head?
Do I feel extensor action on both backstroke and downstroke?
Did I trace a straight plane line with my pp3?
etc
Pg 87 Five Fundamentals: The plane for the downswing is less
steeply inclined and is oriented with the ball quite differently
from the backswing plane. The golfer gets on this second plane-
without thinking he is changing planes- when he turns his hips
back to the left at the start of the downswing. This moves his
body to the left and AUTOMATICALLY LOWERS THE RIGHT SHOULDER.
Pg 93 Five Fundamentals: Inititating the downswing with the
hips is of such critical importance that many top-rung golfers,
sensing that their timing will be better accomodate, START TO
TURN THEIR HIPS TO THE LEFT A FRACTION OF A SECOND BEFORE THE
CLUB REACHES THE TOP OF THE BACKSWING.
Pg 74 Five Fundamentals: When the hips are turned back to the
left, this tightens the muscless between the hips and the
shoulder just a notch more - something like like the way a fellow gives each lug that little extra tightening twist when
he's changing a tire.
