Solid Irons

Had quite a good striking with the irons.

In a recent golf forum discussion, the topic was "do you hit with your left or right arm?" A similar question/thread was, "do you push or pull in your backswing and downswing?"

What works for me is that I push with my left arm/shoulder in my backswing, then I pull with my left arm in the downswing -- until impact -- then the right arm takes over on the release just after impact and then the follow through. The finish is a natural turn of the body as the right arm follows the swing plane towards the left shoulder.

An early wrist cock in the backswing is critical for me, with this "lag" maintained on the downswing.

I hope this holds up...
