re: What is your #1 thought at the top of your backswing as you initiate your downswing?

My entire swing only takes about 1 second.
I don’t process very quickly so I don’t think when swinging in general.
I’m just reacting to a target.
Preshot, I try to get a feel for a true swing.

If you’re thinking at that point, you’re doing it wrong.
Takeaway and tempo are everything. After you’ve been playing a few years, and especially if you’re any good at all the body knows what to do. Get your head out of the way and let it.

Sounds like you could use CPG’s 747 swing thought system

Step forward, put butt of club in my right pocket.

It’s practical, but you will never get to an elite level without “stack and jilt” chipping technique.

I think about getting my belt buckle moving first then taking my trail elbow towards the spot I want my swing to bottom. If I think about those things too much I look like Sir Charles though.

In practice at the range I go slow and think through my swing. In play, I think a lot before I start my backswing. As soon I start to swing I try to empty my brain of everything and just let physics and muscle memory handle it.

flush it
I try to install swing thoughts on the range with drills and practice and then just swing it and play golf, not golf swing, on the course.

Have you ever been fitted for “top of the backswing” swing thoughts? If not, head down to your nearest Edwin Watts Golf Dealership and get fitted.
I got fitted for swing thoughts a few years ago and I’m in the low 70s consistently.

Acceleration and hitting down on the ball. Iron swing. Driving it is easy for me these days.
