But

One club has no golfer attached!

Difference?
Absolutely.

That difference is 'support', which is indeed additional mass of the player. The difference is less slowdown due to impact and therefore faster separation speed.

I think EdZ is correct on this one. I think Pivot Lag is also related to this momentum(mass in motion) transfer. Pivot Lag..."operates like a "gear train" to extend the Swing Radius of the Primary Lever to any point from the Shoulder turn on down to the Feet(Zone #1)."

Now... maybe Mr. Yoda can go on with his Rocky Thompson story... relating to ARC size.
