There is a lot of merit to the 'drag back' approach IMO. A lot of the old timers used it when I was growing up, and I wish I hadn't dismissed it as 'old style' back then. There are still a lot of good players using it at my old 'home course' of Harding Park. I recall Brian mentioning a mentor of his using this approach back in his earlier days of teaching. A sure fire way to load the power package and make sure you can 'deliver' it. Certainly worth experimenting with if you tend to come inside too quickly, or if you 'roll' too much on takeaway. Mid body hands make at least a bit of 'drag' a built in procedure.
