Takeaway 'feeling' | Golf Monthly

Absolutely not Baz. For me it's a movement that is unnecessary, you roll it open, you have to roll it back square.

My irons swing start with the shaft well forward at address, the trail hand cocked back and my lead hand just straight and I just hold it through the back swing and the downswing. I just feel my trail hand facing the ground a little before impact and it releases through impact.

It's a strong hit as the shaft is still ahead of the club head at impact. The only problem I get is, if I take the club a more than "just a little " on the inside as it gives a pull left. I concentrate on my hand always staying in front of my body, and NOT getting stuck behind it. At 69 I still can hit a 7 iron 160 yards and a 5 iron 190 with a slight draw as the irons are all delofted at impact.

I think Mike Malaska explains it better than I do!
