What is your downswing key

Just curious what swing keys you all have. I read once that Nicklaus said you can only have a max of three on the course, is all your mind can assimilate. Maybe you just grip-it and rip-it or maybe you are like me and often get paralysis by analysis.

Re: What is your downswing key

hi gman
no downswing as it happens to fast, i thick slow back first 18 inches like i'm sweeping the grass back, that stops me getting to fast and out of my tempo.

Bill Reed great tip, slow and low going back was Jack's motto throughout his career-works great.

Re: What is your downswing key

Just went and tried it and feels much better. This is one of the things I used to do years ago and simply forgot about. I think i've been 'snatching it up', lol.

Look at this pic of Bobby Jones and you can really see how he kept the low takeaway-http://www.golfswing.com/proswings/../Assets/quicktimeproswings/jones.mov
