A method and circuit are disclosed for controlling the write head of a magnetic disk storage device. The circuit includes a pull-up device coupled to a terminal of the write head, a current sink circuit which is coupled to the write head terminal and a bootstrap circuit coupled to the current sink circuit. When reversing the direction of current flow through the write head so that current is drawn from the write head from the write head terminal, the bootstrap circuit and the current sink circuit are activated. When the current in the write head nears and/or slightly surpasses the desired destination current level, the bootstrap circuit is deactivated and the pull-up device is thereafter immediately activated for a predetermined period of time.
