Add a little flexibility of 'lag and drag' and, on video, Byron Nelson clearly evidences the 'Lagging Clubhead Takeaway' of Homer Kelley's as yet unpublished seventh edition.
As always . . . I took your advice and purchased Byron Nelson's Winning Golf off of e-bay. I agree with the above analysis. I'm not sure that Mr. Nelson's takeaway was a SHOULDER TURN TAKEAWAY based on a review of the pictures. It looks like the Lagging Right Forearm Takeaway to Bucket.

I'll scan and post.

Well, since the original question in 2006 went partly unanswered, I'll jump in. I just was studying chapter 6 this morning and stumbled upon it.

No, using right forearm takeaway DOES NOT destroy the triangle. Per:

Quote:
6-A-1 THE TRIANGLE ASSEMBLY

The Power Package is basically a Triangle and this form puts it under the Law of the Triangle. The Straight Left Arm forms Side One, the Shoulders form the second Side and a line from the Right Shoulder to Hands forms the Third Side – whether the Right Arm is straight or bent.
All the answers are there for us, sometimes it just takes us a few years to find it. :) :hello:

I guess this is related to a one piece takeaway so its a good thread that popped up but it seems like that type of takeaway promotes an increase in the triangle, and increase in the backswing radius from address and then to the 9 oclock position, for me it tends to pull my left shoulder back and then upwards, destroying geometry.

I much prefer a motion that holds the radius tighter and can track some poor striking recently to this very flaw.

Hope that makes sense.

That makes total sense. That's exactly what has always happened to me when trying for more width.

Width means maintaining the triangle (left arm radius) with extensor action.

It does not mean extending the triangle with extensor action.

Many who try for width, or 'low and slow' end up as you have described - incorrectly extending the triangle via the shoulder joint.
