Sounds like a "zero pivot" or "static" pivot (shoulder) action, which provides the reactive/bouncing force to the power accumulators (active arms, wrists and hands). I also actively turning/rotating my "launching pad" (dynamic pivot action), which serves as the "gear train" pulling the power accumulators in "swinging", for "hitting". In other words, my "launching pad" provides not only the reactive force, but also momentum to the power accumulators in bending/stiffening/stressing the shaft (or sustaining the clubhead lag) during "hitting". __________________ Yani Tseng, Go! Go! Go! Yani Tseng Did It Again! YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the "LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact. "Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一). The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command". "Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life. Think as a golfer, execute like a robot. Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft. bts View Public Profile Send a private message to bts Find all posts by bts
