I had the same question KOC posed, having spent some time with the BG video (and Alignment Golf by the way both are totally awesome, I'm loving the putting dvd).
Do you think his motion in the backswing is a carry-back type of motion or how do you think he stresses the shaft in the backswing? What you see as his default pattern is that he loads the right elbow not the left wrist correct? From tee to green?
welcome to (soggy) New York by the way! hope to see you at Barclays in Aug.

Although I posted somewhere that both Brian and Larry Nelson both employ a lagging takeaway, I'd like to retract that. I talked to Yoda about it recently and discovered I had mistaken a post he wrote on bent left arm at address to mean bent left wrist. My bad.
I now believe that Brian Gay starting from Fix uses a carry-back as opposed to swing back, lagging takeaway.
But, like he did, play around with both to see which you like better. Im still going back and forth. When I get too wooden, I use a lagging takeaway, when I start losing my alignments I go back to Fix and Carry back. Heck sometimes I even resort to swinging, yes I am THAT confused.
Still sorting my way through the golf nuts candy bar.
