I think you were trapped in a push/pull universe:-) I was not pulling with the left arm (it was actually extending). What I described was not really ringing the church bell though I did post before that adding this element to the levering produced a bit of downcock and plane flattening that is charecteristic of Moe's swing.

You do want to pull the tray down. I would advise to be careful about 'activating' the right hand. I make every effort to apply force to hold the tray position.

Sounds like you may be feeling what I've been describing. If you are then you are maintaining the angle longer. When I achieve pro levels of lag it feels as though the club head is snapping out 'horizontally' as opposed to in plane. It's this component that rotates the arms so strongly. Are you getting this sensation?

For me not only different than I thought but unlike anything I had imagined.
