Correct / Best Move to Start the Downswing?

Group,

I’m struggling with my downswing. I feel like I get to the top of my backswing OK but I’m confused about what the correct / best move to start the downswing is.

There are various videos related to the downswing. Tilt and turn. Bump hip. Left arm to left thigh. Roll the back foot.

What have has everyone found to be the correct / best move to start the downswing? And what has your swing thought been?

Thanks, Mike

Thanks Mike for addressing this really important issue. I know my comment is a bit late, I just joined Tom's program last week. I think the most difficult area for most of us regular golfers is the transition from backswing to downswing. I think if you and I can master that move, with Tom's help of course, then we will immediately see great improvement. One thing helping me in this regard is hitting into the net at home. I try to swing as slow as I can to instill the feeling and a great check point (at least for me) is to see if you finish in balance. Anyway, thanks again for bringing up this important issue in the swing. Best of luck to you in your golfing career.

Nice advice, Cal!

Today's YT lesson speaks somewhat to this topic, and the LagShot training aid that I utilize again in this episode is a great one for ingraining a good transition.
