The Hitter's stress is at the back of the Shaft and does not vary.

Thanks Lynn! Great addition to this thread!
Just for my curiosity can you or someone else reference where he says the "wallop of centrifugal force" in the book- I believe it's there but am blanking out where to look.
Actually, never mind- I found it in 6-F-1 "Right" Timing...."Acceleration ceases when the speed it has produced equals that of the Thrust, and though the thrust is still present and able to maintain Velocity, it loses the flexed, stressed Clubshaft (Hitters) and the wallop of the Centrifugal Force (Swingers)."
