Then you bring it down a little, and then the crossover move happens to get

                 the club in front of you and through your impact positions, utilizing the
                 pressure on both sides of your thumbs on the left side and then inside and up
                 to your follow through. It is a inside figure 8 shaped swing.


                 You do not have to pull hard with the last 3 fingers of your left hand, which
                 would block you coming down into the ball. The reminder grip and the left
                 side thumb pressure aides you in achieving the famous arched left wrist look
                 that Mr. Hogan had in his golf swing.


                 You do not have to force this position, it occurs do to a proper grip and
                 pressure with both of your thumbs. The pronation move is how your left arm
                 and shoulder moves going back in your swing. You need to have your inside
                 upper left arm firmly attached to your left rib cage, just under and left of your

                 left nipple.

                 The roundness to your your left side going back will allow the natural rotation
                 of the left shoulder coming out towards the ball and the rotation naturally of

                 the left forearm, left hand and left wrist.
