Page 93 - "Initiating the downswing with the hips is of
such critical importance that many to-rung golfers, sensing
that their timing will be better accommodated, start to
turn their hips to the left a fraction of a second before
the club reaches the top of the backswing. There's
nothing wrong with this. It amounts to a permissible
personal modification and it underline, if anything, the
salient fact that that under no conditions should the
downsing be inaugurated by the hands."

This is a good topic, and often misunderstood.

I believe if you did a study of nearly every good player... they swing from the GROUND-UP, whether they FEEL this or not.
Try to stand on ice, and strike a ball. I saw a good player(pro) try to make a swing on ice once, he thought he could, but he went down.
