Se GRADUAL GAN IN CLUBHEAD ED IN THE Tp TO TURN Bc + The reason the back swing must be reasonably slow is because the club must be kept under control. The glow back swing does not mean that laborious, stiff, paralizing back swing we now and then see, yet it must be slow enough for you to keep an absolute control of the club. That is the whole guide to the speed of the back swing--keep the club in your control. This cannot be done when the back swing is quick and Jerky. Let the clubhead be thrown back, largely, if not wholly, with the left arm and hand. You catch it up at the top. The club gradually gains speed as it goes back, but let it have time enough for a natural rhythmic action going back. { Denies All Charges.
