I don't really understand the concept of a "heavy hit" in a swinger's action.

Here is a link to a golfer performing a left arm swing.



This is presumably drag loading at its purest. Does he have a "heavy hit"? What would a swinger need to do in order to have a "heavy hit" if PA#2 releases passively/automatically according to the principle of the endless belt?

Jeff.
He was discussing the "feel" of moving a club head that "feels" heavy. Flippy, handsy, over-acceleration through impact makes the club feel light but maintaining the lag through the strike causes the club to feel heavier.
