Here are my current thoughts on Lag Loading.

1. Drive Loading(less experience)- Carry back(liked that)Deliberate resistance compared to drag, feels considerably shorter than drag, clubface feels aligned.

2. Float Loading (No Idea)- Doesn't sound anything like Drive Loading. I might be float loading for less than full power.

3. Drag Loading (that's me, requires a different mental state than my norm, nice reality break) - Your exlanation was great, momentum created(swung/thrown). I'm trying to be pliable AND let the weight stretch me while maintaing alignments, feels long/delayed, clubface feels rotated/laid off?. The bad swings/days I feel like I am catching the club with a misaligned stiff glove, like poor power transfer from the club to all 3 zones( a glancing blow), no slot.

All I feel young sir, is my left thumb while Swinging or RFT tracing the baseline of the plane while Hitting. My point is that the downswing happens so fast it is hard for me to do anything but see the ball leave.

"Left thumb/ Address/Drag or Trace takeaway/ Step Left or Elbow Plane Push to Both Arms Straight," is my list now. I am working towards "Right Forearm on Plane, Pincher Action, Quiet Hands, Quiet Feet....same as the last, same as the last."

I can't get the video link now but will provide it later.
