Excerpt from Present-Day Golf
The difference in method as regards the disposition of weight at the top of the swing comes to this, that Braid being heavy on the left foot at the top of the swing hits the ball down, whereas Ray and Mitchell, having less pressure on the left at the top, hit it up. For this reason Braid will outdrive Ray against a wind, and vice versa. One Often sees in front Of the spot where Braid's ball lay the roots of the grass laid bare by his club, but you will never see this done by Ray. Unfortunately for him Ray cannot success fully apply this extra pressure on the left that he wants when he is battling against a wind, nor can Braid get any lighter on the left when he wants to get height. This is really the ideal to be aimed at heavy on the left when you want to keep or hit the ball down, and light on the left when you wish to get height.
