I don't believe a specific swing thought is right or wrong! Whatever works for YOU and helps YOU play consistant solid rounds. But I will say SIMPLER is probably better.

I try to stay away from telling a part of my body to do something. I remember Jack Nicklaus saying never to do that. Easier said then done, though. It's amazing how hard it is to just clear your mind and focus your eyes on the task at hand. As they say, "trust your hands, not your eyes".

Golf is a eye and hand coordination sport, so the "trust your hands, not your eyes" notion can be chucked out of the window. With that said, understanding the golfer's illusions are sort of key to help with eye and hand skills. Plus last time I checked if you are thinking about hands that is a part of the body. You have to have a swing thought. Listen to players on tour after a solid round, it seems common for them to have had a very simple swing thought (ex. Tempo, balance etc.) whatever you do don't have a downswing blackout!
