I like photo 6 in the sequence on :-http://www.hickorygolfers.com/swings/bobbyjones/index.htm

Looks really balanced, great leg action, and no extreme axis tilt. I think that once i discovered concept of axis tilt...I started to overdo it...and then you feel the strain !

Bobby looks great!no need to overdo it!

I like Bobby's knee action. Standard, right? I think straightening the knee helps get your right glute behind, el squatto helps the "down." Similar to the sweetest of them all...the Slammer!

Jones
Because of his emphatic hip turn going back, he learned to "come over the top" just a bit to get back on plane.

Now how in the blue blazes does someone learn to do that?

That level of learning and mastery of all it entails is stunning. No Swingvison. Hickories. Plus fours.

Bobby Jones..........you were something else!

Get over it
To clarify, when I see the distance between the right shoulder and the stance line closing prior to the club swinging through, I define that as starting to come over the top. As I tried to say before, Jones hip and shoulder turn were so large, that he had to come over it a little to get his swing back to an effective path.

Did I say effective? Devastating would be more like it.

In his era, he was clearly one of a kind. What kind? The finest kind!

Grip type
10-2-C V/R/T is my vote for Grip -Type. Let the component checklist continue, it could be a great lesson for us all.
