Connection -- Real and Artificial

The true idea of "connected" is Lag and Drag. That is, in an efficient Golf Stroke, each lagging Component puts a drag on its preceding, or leading, Component -- in both directions. In other words, from Address (and its Pre-Shot Routine) to the Finish and at all points in between (from Feet to Clubhead), you feel the Drag of the Lagging Clubhead.

Connection is all about Sequencing the various Components of the Total Motion to create the mandatory Lag Pressures.

It most assuredly is not about creating static and artificial pressures of one body part against another. In fact . . .

That way lies sorrow.
