The Float Load, or Down Cocking Action seems to be seldom used or recommended anymore. Do most of you see this as a less desirable procedure? It does seem to cause some timing problems, and may tend to make some STEEP.
However, Mr. Nicklaus did quite well with this action.
What do you think is the proper, and improper way to execute this procedure?
It's the most advanced procedure, which demands tremendous talent to handle the "timing" issue.

"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.
A little "float loading" fixed my student right up. Main issue was an over rolling of the left forearm during the takeaway which would cause all HEAPS of issues.
Once i introduced a lagging clubhead takeaway and a little float loading his swing speed increased from 102-105 to 115-118 in our 2 hours lesson.
It also fixed his over rolling motion and allowed him to swing ON PLANE and also get the right shoulder downplane.
This stuff works!
