From 3 barrel to 4 barrel

Yes Thom, it makes sense now you’ve said it:
During the last year, I learned to feel clubhead lag using pressure points in the hands and tracing:
I improved my ball contact and consistency a lot (better compression, divots well after the ball...).

But as my focus was mainly to educate my hands, I paid little attention to the pivot.

Boy! I understand why Homer said the pivot is the Master Accumulator (6-B-4-0):

I have always been a long hitter, and very few people can overdrive me, but putting the emphasis on the pivot provided even much more power (awesome!) and a lot of comfort (a bit less effort)!!!

By consciously adding the #4 accumulator into play (full strokes) everything fell in place: I distinctly felt the Checkrein action (pivot, shoulder, arms, club...) and every ounce of power I can generate was applied to the ball with the clubhead weighting a ton !
