Once you learn how to dance, type, play an instrument, etc.... you don't have to think about it much, or at all. Learning golf swing mechanics should be similar.
From when I passed my grade 8 in classical (associated board) and also grade 8 in rock guitar (trinity) and afterwards when practing some very advanced pieces, I can tell you its very much the opposite. I spent hours apon hours practicing with a metronome at varing speeds, listening to the quality of each note... listening hard to each and every note ! Now i've hardly played for the last 5 years and whilst people would still think im pretty good and an advanced player, they are no longer are astounded. Its certainly not a case of that you don't have to think about it because technique, like in golf, deteriorates greatly unless you practice to improve it... such as economy of movement, accenting certain notes, dynamics control, tonal control...etc

If you don't use it, you lose it.... and golf has a small margin of error between whats great and whats poor...

That certainly accounts for VJ and most pros practicing endlessly...muscles don't have that much memory!
