O.B. - Take it easy with the egg nog!

Lag in a common golf speak sense is what we TGM types would describe as float loading but with a degrees of left wrist cock perspective attached.
Lag is the act of trailing. Float loading is one of three methods used as a loading technique - that's separate from the defintion of lag.

Like Kev alluded to, Homers Accumulator Lag refers primarily to Lag Pressure at the #3pp which cant be measured visually really, beyond noting the trailing condition of the clubhead.

Accumulator lag isn't well defined in the golfing machine but I would at least think it is how much the accumulator is out of line - whether it be #1, #2, #3 or #4 i.e. how much the accumulator is trailing an in-line condition. It certainly has it's relationship to lag pressure - but I wouldn't say it primarily refers to Lag Pressure.
6-C Quote: "Accumulator Lag (7-19) and/or Thrust (7-11) determine the amount of Power generated by the Power Package – Zone #2 (9-2)." And from 6-B-0: "Varying the amount of out-of-line and/or the amount of muscular effort will vary the accumulation of Power that can be Released ...."



In terms of degrees of #2, left wrist cock, absent any mechanical arguments against exceeding 90 degrees, Im thinking that you should let the conditions of Release and Impact be your guide.
From a level condition- the most "cocking" you can get is 30 degrees. From an anatomical defintion - 20 degrees.



When it's four degrees out! - there's time for some forum posting!
