recently with all the matches with master series and now US Open, i have begun to realize that MANY of the pros use a somewhat abbreviated take-back.

meh. and a bit lazy to find a few, but ive seen many that do not do a really circular takeback.
1. why is this?
2. is it better?
3. is it habits or trained to do so?
personally i use a very full take back where the head almost can touch my left pocket.
