Faster Hips or Smarter Starter Hips?

New research is showing that golf swing power is not necessarily boosted by unwinding the hips faster during the downswing, but rather by unwinding the hips in the downswing BEFORE arms complete the backswing.  All the top pros do it, and very few of even scratch tournament amateurs can pull it off.  But of course in Bobby Jone's swing, it is very evident that is what is going on.  There is a good drill called the "washing machine" drill that can build that move into your swing.
