I think the "downstroke blackout" is a lack of focus. When we lose focus we lose the preparation and we lose our rythem.

When this happens i imagine a drill i do at the range, but on the course:

When i am really working on my accuracy and ball striking i put two clubs down on either side of the ball and leave very little room, think 1". This drill has done wonders for my ballstriking and can create quite a crowd around you too when you are striking them well.

Anyway, imagine those two clubs on either side of your ball when you're on the course, PICTURE THEM THERE.

Focus.

Then hit them.
