Interesting lag post

I get it now. In my last lesson, Brian tried every way he could think of to get me to feel like was was hitting a pull. He found a way- "crowding the ball" This was a version of the yellow brick road.

I've incorporated a post of Brian's some time ago where he said. "Make a motion that would throw your arms right off of your body if you had detachable arms like a Mannequin. These arms should hit the ground near the target line just ahead of the ball." That is Shake the Sugar!!!

Thanks.

On another front, lag seems so cool because it may be a way to more explosive distance. I've come to believe developing a great pivot is a surer way, and whatever lag I get naturally, is what I get.

Working on the concepts above and my pivot has made my ball striking much more accurate, and as a by-product, Brian's lessons gave me more distance with less effort too.

Alright....that's it. That post has OFFICIALLY made me want to go out and actually do my video on what REALLLLY produces accumulator lag (the angle).

This weekend might be tight because i'm teaching a little out of town BUT i'm going to try and do my best to get it done. Plus a wonderful member here has given me hosting space on his server.

So give me some time and i'll show you how to REALLY do it. It's so simply you're going to slap yourself in the back of the head and be like, "that's it? Why didn't i think of that!"

any progress on this video?
 
some well known guy in TGM-circles once said that Lag is never Released. ;)

I wonder if that's still true with the like of Mandrin hanging about?

(hmmm...let me guess where this will go...definitions of lag and release...lol)
 
Brian/ Jim do you bother to teach a student how to achieve more accumulator lag?

I use to religiously beat an impact bag, the sofa, and even a tree stump to learn impact. I was almost there! I didn't learn how to truly swing a club like a club until I learned that impact is something you flow through... Before I understood the latter, I was still quite wonderfully potent with an iron in my hand, but now I get a lot more distance throughout the bag with less effort and greater consistency.

IMO understanding impact, plane, and path are the most important things in golfdom. NOT LAG. Educate them darn hands...

I wonder how many golfers have ruin themselves trying to achieve more accumulator lag.
