DIRECTION CHANGE

By Best Ball

It is oftentimes hard to dis- cern where the backswing reases and the downswing be- gins in many strokes. Parti- cularly is this true of those golfers who possess a free flowing style of swinging. In other cases, such as Lawson Little's, there is a mumentary pause at the top before the direction change is initiated. In a style in which the total movement seems apparen ly one motion, it sometimes looks as if the downswing has start- ed before the backswing has been completed. Such of course is not the case, The shift to the left only starts after the backswing has been completed.

Dobby Jones' waving plumelike stroke was pattern- ed along this streamline, one piece style. Yet Jones de- Anitely finished his backward windup before he started his downstroke, Jones started swinging down by moving out from under his hands, leaving them momentarily at the top of the stroke while he started the downswing mechanics un- derway. The result was that the right urm was brought down into its proper place at the right side and a tendency to preserve the wrist cock un- til needed.
