In on the upswing, hold on the down swing. Easy. If you don't have a lung full of air ready, how are you going to swear at it when it duck hooks.

Breath? Who breaths?
I hold my breath on the first tee and I don't breath again until the ball goes in the hole on the 18th.
At least, I don't remember breathing.

I breathe OUT a few moments before the shot, then hold my breath.....
whilst the ball starts low,
climbs high,
powers it's way through the crisp winter air,
lands and rolls to a point,
oooh,
at least 285 yds down the centre cut of the glorious fairway.
NOT. It's actually easier to hit it at the nearest tree, saves holding my breath for the 35 seconds hang time off my
600cc driver.

MOH has just got big on breathing. Swears you have to breathe out on the down swing (I think)Personally I find I have enough to think about. Would rather let breathing take care of itself, which somehow it usually does.
And I did beat him twice this week! - (Damn that's probably put and end to it!)

Don't know, I've got my eyes closed on the first tee so I can't see if I'm breathing or not.....
If this is a case of paralysis by analysis then it's a dangerous one, if you don't breath during the shot, you'd better not be as slow as..........(insert fav tour pro !)
You might just expire if you take that long!

Have to breath in on the backswing to have enough in my lungs for the inevitable shout of "fore right"

apparently if you try to think about your breathing, it will stop you having too many swing thoughts - hey presto the ball goes down the middle
obviously doesnt work for me though
