Sorry to do this to you Peter, but you are incorrect. Sustaining the lag is a Golfing Machine term. You sustain the lag by driving against the clubs inertia. Maintaining the left arm/clubshaft angle is maximum trigger delay. I started studying the Golfing Machine last year after I read some post from a guy in rec.sport.golf who used to teach it. Pretty impressive stuff. I know for a fact there is a guy at BOM using Golfing Machine terminology and incorrectly I might add. He's getting by with it because no one else is familar with the terminology.

You should never pull in the right arm, it should straighten in the downswing.
