    Default Usage

    I know that there is a Idiom "hands down". But today I heard someone saying "hands down the way". what's the correct usage?

    I have never heard 'hands down the way'

    Unless it means 'put your hands down the way' which would mean to put your hands flat on a surface with the palms down.
