Thank you. That helped. Where do you get all your information from?

At some point, Air, you might want to try doing it, i.e., use a golf-like motion to actually drag a big, wet heavy mop along a floor, patio, deck or whatever.
Here's how I went about it years ago:
1. Buy or borrow a large, industrial grade mop. Avoid the wimpy, grocery store household models. They just don't cut it.
2. Soak it in water.
3. Assume a golf-like stance, place the mop about three or four feet behind a simulated ball positio, and grip the handle as a simulated golf club.
4. With the mop remaining in contact with the surface at all times, use a golflike motion to 'drag the wet mop' to the end of the 'follow-through (both arms straight). Make sure you use your pivot -- not just your arms and hands -- to help you set up the initial dragging, accelerating motion. Then, use your arms to continue the 'delivery' until the right elbow is straight. Finally, be sure to keep your left wrist flat and right wrist bent at all times.
5. Repeat this exercise as often as necessary to get and retain the correct 'feel' of the totally inert Clubhead Lag Pressure Point Pressure. No verbal or written explanation can possibly teach you what you will learn by actually dragging a big, heavy, wet mop through 'impact'.
Daryl obviously has done this. Hence the excellent comments in his Post #3 above. Thanks, Daryl!

Thank you.
I'll see if I can find one of these - not so many more around (here) I'm afraid....
Time to get creative, Air.
Go to a local grocery store and ask the manager what night they mop. Then, make a deal!
Alternatively, drop a jar of pickles on the floor, and when the Mop & Bucket Brigade arrives, insist that you clean up the mess. The jar of pickles is less expensive than a mop, and you'll be 'dragging' in no time!
I just tried wrapping the handle of my impact bag around the clubhead of an old hybrid I have here and that gives a lot of resistence (maybe too much?) when I try dragging (driving) it along the carpet.

Never hang out with the "Bucket Brigade" when there is loose pickles around .

Somewhere or other I once saw a photo of golf instructor dragging a pit bull around in golf like fashion. He looked like a good guy to get a lesson from actually. Now who was that guy........

My video and the 'swing sequence' capture and comparison is part of our Lynn Blake Certified Instructor Training Curriculum. It would make a good post. I'll add it to the 'To Do' list.

Are there any weight limitations to how heavy this drag/push is supposed to be? The "creative" solution I am trying now is rather heavy (good strengh training?)
