The Amazing Moe Norman! Full Version Unedited With Bag Pipes  

I couldn’t agree more. So much time has gone by since I filmed that video and I am still in awe and watch it again and again. You are very very welcome.

@@tomkowalsky I it's in my favorites so I also watch it again and again.

AWESOME

Thanks. I rewatch it again and again

Thanks for watching

Agreed

You could feel his joyfulness with every shot. He LOVED to hit balls. Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching. It was an absolute honour and a privilege to be there with him that day.

I felt the same way while I was recording it as a much younger man. Next round I tried that flatter funny looking swing and BOOM. Down the middle. Thank you Moe. thanks for watching and commenting.

The dead rule

Do you not see the people whine him? And a film crew ?

It almost makes me want to cry, I cringe inside because of when he was on the PGA Tour they made fun of him and bullied him and he was so shy and insecure, he quit and went back to Canada, people suck!!!

He was the best ball striker, not the best golfer.

To stand and watch in person was really something

@@charliepastrami2813 Ha ha! AWESOME clip. Sliced AND cussed. real quick.

🤣🤣

That’s hysterical 😂

I Totally Agree. I was in awe watching it live and you can see the looks on the faces. LOL. Amazement.

Thanks for sharing your Moe story. He was incredible.

What incredibly wise words and observations. I could not agree more. When I try to focus and hit it good I never do. The nonchalant I don’t really care but I do attitude is what really works. No matter how easy I swing the ball still goes. Thank you for watching and for such inspiring comments.

@@tomkowalsky thank you for such a kind response! The thoughts I expressed are easier for me to say than they are for me to follow while out on the course…but I do try! 😅

GREAT SWING GREAT MAN

Very Welcome

I know right?!

So glad you enjoyed it

there's a video on here "Amazing unseen footage of Moe Norman, Nick Faldo , Matt Lane and others" Moe starts around the 10 minute mark . starts hitting out of the sand and then driver out of a divot ...CRACK CRACK no dirt flying . the sound is absolute magic !!

Absolutely My Pleasure

Thanks for watching

@@tomkowalsky It’s my pleasure.

EVERY TIME

I know right? The knee's have been the big focus for me. Moe was very specific when I asked him about the role of your knee's. Look at my knee's he would say...

AGREED!

Thanks so much for the kind words. I assure you he was excited when I asked him. I still look back on this as one of my greatest golf experiences ever.

@@tomkowalsky2X drove over from Orlando in mid 90's to Titusville to film Moe but sadly lost the videos. Even in his 60's, he hit it so pure!

so gifted thanks for watching

So Well said my Friend.

Yeah I agree with you. You take feelings and characterists of good ball strikers and find your swing.

100% true you also have to have some foundation and dedication to find your successful swing

Find the swing that suits your body 100% -not the PGA school of hard knocks

such a machine

I could not agree more. Well said. Thanks for watching and commenting

It was an HONOUR to meet Moe

Indeed! Nailed it!

"He's an excellent driver"! Oh yeah, an excellent driver!

He SCORED

Hell ya

Yeah lol he was loving it

Such a honour to meet him

Was great to be there

Same

Thanks Moe Indeed

Simple is GOOD!

Well said. Thanks for watching

Agreed.

You said it

Thank you for watching.

NAILED It

Moe three putted 6 times in the opening round of the masters and never had a good short game (his putting was terrible). He also averaged about 255 yards with his driver. You are making shit up

He said he 3 putted 17 times at the masters.

No problem 👍glad you enjoyed it

Actually, he said the best striker of the ball that’s ever lived. But he’s just repeating what Nicolas Faldo, Garry player and many other said. He never made that up himself. That’s what they said about him. I believe he’s so full of himself because Golf is the only opportunity he has to feel the feeling of greatness. Clearly, in every day life he’s an oddball living in his car and not fitting in. It’s not unusual for people to find the one thing that they are better than anyone else in the world and experience that feeling of greatness. Whatever you wanna call it it’s valid and he’s earned it and that’s all that matters.

@@tomkowalsky yea agree, he did pass away a good while ago. It's bound to be good for your ego if the eletes where saying "best stricker of the ball" and "he knew he would always hit it straight " , although I wonder why he never won a major and acctually never played in most of them? Could it be that deep down he himself believed he was good but not quite good enough to be at the very very top of the game?

SO TRUE

Very observant

The right hand not crossing is huge!

That right hand not spinning on top of the left through impact is absolutely a key fundamental that is lost on the modern rotational swing.

100 or so. I was so lucky to be there that day

@@tomkowalsky Thanks so much!

So True

ability???? more like... his "gift" of not fitting in with the social elite. It's a real rare trait to not be compelled to "pander" to whomever or whatever these days.

@@rickdangerous5606 Nailed IT

GENIUS

True Legend

Well Done!

HELL YA

I Know

Indeed. Its been ages since I recorded this and still watching over and over. Can't believe I was there mere feet away from that perfect impact. Over and over again as if it was NOTHING!

@@tomkowalsky wish I could of witnesed that...

Was so good to be there and see him close up. Thanks for watching and commenting

You are very welcome and....OMG! Great question and man I never looked or asked but they were definitely players blades and NOT perimeter weighted.

I know. Moe told it like it was

Sure Was!

Indeed. Thanks for watching

I have to agree. Always loved Ray Floyd

Mr CRISPY

250 to 260 unless he "goes" for it

Nailed It. I always know when my knees take a break because I leave it to the right every time from not DRIVING through with the KNEES

@@tomkowalsky I just focused on staying down and keeping my knees bent and was stripping it.

@@tomkowalsky I agree straightening the legs leads to inconsistent ball striking and loose dispersion and weak contact

No misses that day. Amazing

He said in another video he missed a fairway once seven years ago.And he never has any boggies in his bag. Amazing!

Moe didn't miss a fairway for 6 years....he once used the same tee for 4 years. Moe played a lot with George Knudsen (incredible iron player, 8 PGA wins) and they'd bet on EVERYTHING. $$. One bet was $100. for every pin hit. In one round, Moe hit 6 pins. For fun, in tournaments, Moe would occasionally tee off with a wedge and hit into the green with his driver, for par or birdie. Lee Trevino said it best....'somebody should have taken Moe under his wing, he would have cleaned up on the tour' He wasn't a country club boy, no one helped him, they even chastised him. Golf lost something very special. He returned home. 41 course records, 3@59, 4@61. Hole-in-ones became boring, he lost count.

@@dannyboy6349 yeah and they banned Bobby Locke as well.

Thats for SURE. Man he loved hitting balls

there is NO chipper in that bag. LOL

@@tomkowalsky i love moe . Im on the autistic spectrum also. But that definitely looks like a chipper 🤣 big fat sole at least.

@@keithgrainger8797 It's his ancient sand wedge I'm sure of it

@@tomkowalsky you're probably correct. I was just shocked to see it.

Just a freak show

Yes

I did notice that , but isn’t he actually going from short Clubs to longer Clubs ? So with the wedge 9 8 and seven iron I’m usually a little more open. But as I get to the longer Clubs , I usually close my stance a bit to try and square up the blade. Does that make any sense?

@@tomkowalsky Makes sense, Hogan did the same

And I would LET HIM!

This observation has come up before. There is really very little point in showing the ball flight when the ball goes exactly the same every time and perfectly straight. You could literally walk out into the field and throw a hula hoop around his balls. There’s nothing to be learned by watching the golf ball fly into the same path and landing the same spot every time. The lesson is in watching the man swing the club. Watching his Takeaway. Watching his position at the top. Watching his finish. Watching his balance. You learn how to swing the club by watching the person with the perfect swing swing the club. Not watching where this ball goes as soon as he hits it and never seeing him finish. I mean seriously what is there to be learned by watching the ball travel 195 yards in the straight line every time and land almost in the exact same spot? You want to see the person who hit it and learn how they did it.

@tomkowalsky didn't say show every shot. I know the purpose of a Moe vid. But we don't even see once if it's where it is. And it would be fun to see when he intentionally hooks and slices. All of that can be shown while still mainly showing and focusing his swing.

Indeed! Thanks for watching

Yes,Ted only had a ball mark at the end of his bat.

Yup
