I did some video work this weekend, and tried some experiments for lag. I now believe lag at impact can be achieved by changing what it is I am trying to accomplish. For example, with a boat paddle as a golf club and a basketball as a golf ball, my lag is Sergio scary. If I place a golf balla few feet forward of it's normal placement as an exxagerated drill, I achieve excellent lag. What are some other concepts that can aid in achieving lag, and how do you make a 7 iron swing in a 2 dollar Nassau as if you were hitting a basketball with a boat paddle, or sweeping some dirt off the front porch? Aiming point is like #3 pressure point and flying wedges. I have heard about them, could probably give a decent definition of them, but i don't really understand what they reaaly mean. When is it time to leave the incubation of the 3 imperatives and drill down deeper into their souls?

This might be heresy but I am impervious, I am also umlaut agnostic and ballpark frank-alogical...
I do also have some minor decrepitude...
I only started getting nice lag when I did exactly the opposite... Instead of trying to hold the angle and get my hands ahead of the ball etc... etc... I said screw it... I am going to throw my clubhead at the ball with my right arm. All the training of keeping the right wrist bent etc etc I just forgot about... sometimes I try and keep my right elbow bent a bit longer for some extra lag-onomics but that is it, you can do it as hard as you like makes no difference...
but I am now an EXCAVATOR I take large LARGE divots, thank goodness my irons have some bounce or else I would leave them sticking 6" in the ground. Also I don't hook the ball anymore... tra-la-la-la-la-leee....
One caveat... it feels like you are throwing the clubhead behind you longitudinally... sorry I can't explain it better.
