to be perfectly clear no matter how many pros drop their head in the downswing, and no matter how many so-called golf swing experts think it is an asset and will tell you 'it's ok look the pros do it!' it is ALWAYS a fault!!! You will hit the ball better by keeping your head in the same place guaranteed, nuff said. Sorry brianid you are very mistaken, tiger has anything but an uncocked left wrist at setup in reality he has the complete opposite, his wrists In a cocked position because of his low hands setup has both Wrists in a cocked position and both arms straight another common fault seen on the PGA tour, common as the head drop neither of these things are helping there golf swings, rather they play well despite these faults because of RAW TALENT AND BALL- HITTING SKILL just as players in previous eras were sliding the knees all around trying to get "leg Drive" this wasn't helping them, they were playing well despite it.

Are we sure it's in c0cked state at setup, or is it just that the grip/shaft is more across his left hand (more PA3 angle)? IMO, its unc0cked at setup, but he has huge acute angle between his left arm and shaft. That's what I call "built-in lag". At impact, his left wrist is level, so he has to make his left hand lower; hence the head drop.

Plus, isn't the head drop just a consequence of starting the DS with a lower body/hips move, which moves the left hip nearer the target, weight more on left foot/leg, and with intention of keeping the upper body cog or head somewhat fixed, your head has to move down or spine tilt away from target, hence move your head down?
