In general, the Release Component (#24) refers to where in the Downstroke the Accumulators begin to fire. The Trigger Component (#20) refers to how that Release is to be initiated. The term Delay -- within the constraints of the boundaries of the selected Release -- refers to when that Triggering is to occur. Thus, though the three terms are coordinate, they remain independent and not synonomous.

The Snap Releases occur at the end of the Line Delivery Paths and the selected Trigger is Delayed until that point. If the Release is Triggered Automatically (in conjunction with the Aiming Point Procedure consciously or subconciously employed), then there will have been a Maximum Trigger Delay. Though The Golfing Machine does not define the term Minimum Trigger Delay, the student can infer that term to mean the earliest possible Non-Automatic Triggering (while respecting the entry boundary of the Snap Release).

The Random Sweep Releases occur prior to the end of the Delivery Paths -- at the Side -- earlier in the Downstroke than their Snap counterparts. If the selected Trigger is Automatic (again, via the Aiming Point Procedure), then a Maximum Trigger Delay will have been effected. If the Triggering is Non-Automatic and initiated as early as possible after the entry boundary of the Random Release, then there will have been Minimum Trigger Delay.

The Full Sweep Release begins immediately at Start Down. Hence, there is no Trigger Delay and, by definition, no Maximum or Minimum classification.[/quote]


I felt we needed a "sacrificial lamb" for this awesome discussion on:

[b]WHERE[/b} the accumulators begin to release....

[b] WHEN [/b} they are triggered....

HOW they are triggered...

I am a visual learner...the words need to come to life!!!!

BTW way ....notiice the change in the distance of the dots...i "TRACED" the #3 PP all the way down........


I noticed the Top Arc....then some portion of a "line" (straight or angled?) then the relatively small release pulley....

What do you guys see?


The Sacrificial Lamb!!!!
