Do you consciously think about it during your downswing?

Gosh I hope not as I have enough on my mind just trying to hit the ball.

You shouldn't think about any of those swing thoughts before you swing Bill. Just practice swing with good tempo and keep the ball an inch or 2 back in your stance if you feel you are not getting your hands ahead of the ball at impact. Short game should probably make you think a bit more because the shaft lean and forward press of the club is what is needed for solid contact on those shots. The smooth swing and good tempo is what you need. Good Luck.

Only on my practice swings. On all of my actual shots, I try to have no swing thoughts going on in my head. To me, thats the whole reason for having a pre-shot routine.

I'm sure they don't care if it's leaning forward, backward, or sideways they simply want to give me the shaft. |

This is the way it's supposed to be. Honestly, swing thoughts will kill your game. Too many technical guys will go thru a zillion thoughts and they don't do any of it. A good pre-shot routine is the ONLY needed to make a solid stroke because it should be rote. Don't over think. |

Yeah, quite honestly the only things I think about during my swing are good tempo, taking note of when I see the club in my left eye (because that's when I start my downswing), and simply making contact with the ball. Shaft lean's the last thing I think about.
