Hi Oliver. Can see you are working well, just as you did with myself. You explained and showed me my issues, which I am still working on. Keep up the good work.
Much happier golfer indeed. Played on Monday. All par 3's green in regulation. Strike hugely improved and a beautiful 240 yard drive down the centre of the fairway (not expected but a nice gift). Thank you!!!
As in counter balance? Mostly a feel thing for me but I have found players that tend to get “stuck” (think Sergio) really like lighter swing weights as they can get the club back out in front of them easier.
Depends Mr D. General trends I’ve found is that early loaders (peak grip speed early in the downswing) get on with stiff & heavy and late loaders (peak grip speed late in the downswing aka casters) prefer lighter and stiffer. Softer flexes are more about release pattern/dispersion (shaft twist/face to path) but some get launch benefit with softer mid sections tips + they like the feel of softer butt sections. As always, got to try and see what’s best.
I had this vision of hitting the ball first and then the turf. That's what they say. It's causing me to hit the ball thin and make the tops. On this video we can see how the irons really hit the ball.
One further comment, I left out the greatest swing of them all, the fabulous Ben Hogan. Like his great contemporary Sam Snead, Hogan owned the golf swing. In a wonderful comment by the golf channel's Brandel Chamblee he stated Hogans swing had zero compensating moves. It was in his words euclidean precision. Gear meshing precision from start to finish. Argue the greatest overall player, the greatest ball striker was a fraternity of one, Ben Hogan.
Many great swings and Arnold Palmer's! It's a tribute to his competitive fire that Arnie won as many times as he did with that butt ugly swing of his. I love the comment from the great sportswriter Jim Murray that Arnie's swing looked like a drunk at a driving range at midnight. For the average player lacking the physical attributes of these champions a swing like that would never work. The real trick is to put as many of the fundamentals of the great swings into your game that you possibly can. The more unorthodox the movement the more athletic a player must be to perform it. Copy these champions grip, stance, posture and alignment and at least you can play your best game. Look at Sam Snead and Jack Nicklaus and try and clone those moves. Then your scores will plummet.
Thanks for the scientific evidence: gear effect is complete BS. It's supposed to make the ball spin sideways and it never does. We always see clearly the backward spin in nearly all cases.
Wish there was no background music. A pure impact sound will be a better music to my ears. If you create that sound then you know you have a sound swing
Its not obvious for people how a golf ball should be struck. This helps with striking so much, I think it is very odd that videos like this are so hard to find.
What I find most interesting: (1) how high up on the driver head they hit the ball (2) how little time the ball spends on the wedge. Almost looks like half the club head is redundant.
