It’s amazing how much I need these reminders after I go out to play and start tightening up halfway through the round. I even feel I am chicken winging it as I’m swinging and watching the ball bounces in just a few yards away. That’s when I really start the correct swing in slow motion practice swings saying yes to key points.
I really like the visual of keeping the grip and away from you as you go thru the swing, this really feels right in my practice swings.
My question is: just to clarify, exactly what point in time does the lead arm start to bend? Is it when the club is parallel to the ground or the trail arm parallel to the ground?

Paul WilsonJohn,
Yes, the club would be around parallel to the ground as I start to bend/fold. I did a tip on it here:
