What about golfer B compared to golfer A? What does HK mean when he envisages a swing radius extending from the feet to the clubhead, and what effect does this "mental construct" have on ball velocity and clubhead slowing as a result of ball collision?

Jeff.
That quote is about pivot lag not really about the release sequence or power accumulators . . . . each pivot segment lagging and getting in line. I'm quite sure that Mandrin is aware of "snapping the chain" or whatever they call that deal. I think that's what Homer was on to there. Again . . . . the longest hitters tend to have spines that are very extended.

Swinging from the feet and pivot lag is what he's talking about there.

6-M-1 DOWNSTROKE SEQUENCE The Downstroke sequence of the Stroke Components is dictated essentially by Centrifugal Force; acceleration of a lagging Componet will cease at the instant it achieves an “In-Line” position with its immediately preceding Component.

Centers and Accumulators can be sequenced, overlapped, omitted, emphasized, triggered, and timed as the players understanding and skill permit. But the Club’s Swing Radius (6-B-0) ends at the “non-lagging” Component nearest to the Clubhead. The “Centers” of the Stroke start with the Feet or the employeed Component nearest to the feet in the following order: Knees, Hips, Shoulders, arms, Right Elbow, Left Wristcock and/or Left Hand Rotation. For maximum Power, the position of must be taken with that will allow Delay of the Release until all Components, except the Right Foot and Right Shoulder, have reached, or passed the Line-of-Site-to-the-Ball per 6-B-1-C. Then the Accumulators must move very rapidly toward their “In-Line” Position. But none should actually arrive (lose all their Lag and Drag until well after Impact. Also see 6-H-0.
