Little Homer
 

I don't know. But if Homer said it, Yoda would know. Homer was a tiny man.

I remember reading it . . . something to the effect that lag pressure could be so strong that he could raise himself up off the ground.

Collards!

Sounds like hovering to me.
 

While Mr. kelley did not differentiate between hitting and swinging when communicating the following, he did say that sometimes he felt the LAG PRESSURE was so strong, that if he were stronger, he could lift himself right off the ground!

Standin' On the Clubhead Lag
 

Eddie's got it right.

Swingers Drag the Lag. Hitters Drive the Lag. And the Clubhead Inertia (Clubhead Lag) can handle all the Pressure any human being is able to generate.

Bobby Jones wrote about the Pulling Pressure he felt during his Swinging Start Down. He said there was nothing to pull against except his own muscles, but he was wrong...

He was Pulling against the Clubhead Lag.

The Physical Homer Kelley
 

I would not describe Homer Kelley as being 'tiny.' He certainly was not a large man, but neither was he much smaller than average. And as a young man, he was strong enough to climb hand-over-hand up and down on a rope suspended from the gym ceiling. All in all, a pretty good specimen.

You gotta love these little random facts about Homer.
