Both these guys are crazy long and bit it pure pure pure. Both would willing trade me some of their longitudinal for " the nice width" they like in my Startdown. Still trying to figure out how to do this. I'd make the trade in a heart beat. My point is that we all admire that super late look but only a few can really achieve it maybe. I dunno.but regardless you have options in terms of Release and it's probably best to pursue one that you are capable of achieving. That said there is a mEchanical advantage .... That of the smaller pulley wheel, endless belt. Practically for the golfer the Hands do speed up ( otherwise there wouldn't be any lag pressure for instance). And slow down upon lever ExtEnsion. I guess we are talking swinging in his discussion and so ruling out q muscular Effort to add hand speed during release. I'm typing on my phone can somebody please post The paragra I'm not so sure that your position on "mechanical advantage" isn't circular argument . . . . but anyways . . . what specifically are the mechanical advantages of a "smaller pulley wheel"? What defines the pulley wheel? The assumptions are that a small wheel is some how better . . . are there any disadvantages? Is there a distinction and/or relationship to handpath and the pulley wheel? Or is it all about "delaying the release" of #1/#2? __________________ Aloha Mr. Hand Behold my hands; reach hither thy hand 12 piece bucket View Public Profile Send a private message to 12 piece bucket Find all posts by 12 piece bucket
