Holla back please sir!

Boooooooo-Kay.
Yep... the basic, the hands are the 'last link' in the chain.

I don't want to get side tracked into a push vs pull discussion, but if the hands are ahead of the ball at impact, with lag pressure, they are pulling (relative to the clubhead).

You can't have lag pressure in the hands if the hands (pressure points) are not leading.

So if the hands are the last part of the body that has control of the club, and they are, by definition, leading the club to have lag pressure, then we should pay a lot of attention to those hands!

The mind is in the hands.

The 'plane' of the hands, as I define it, is a line drawn from the hands at the top/end, through the hands at impact, to a spot on the ground along that line. For all but a zero accumulator #3 motion, that spot is 'inside' the clubhead/sweet spot, inside the ball-target line.

The plane the pressure points travel on in space. More specifically, the plane pressure point #1 travels on during a true 'zero shift' swing.

For a few examples of how to see this more clearly, take a look through the drills section (linked in my signature), specifically at the drill in a pool.

Easy to see and do on a horizontal plane, a bit more confusing for many on the inclined plane.
