Tiger Woods | Swing Theory | Driver, iron, wedge 

It's not about the swing it's about scoring. Look at Scheffler

You gotta love tigers swing. Scott has basically used tigers 2000 swing as a model for his own. Everything is so nice neutral & balanced which allows them to play all the shots with little manipulation. I’ve always tried to copy Scott’s and tigers positions and the way they play the game. Of course the game is played between the ears but having a technically sounds swing certainly helps hitting the ball flush and consistently.

@@method341 Scottie’s swing is pretty close to the same positions as tiger and Scott, similar swing planes, square club and wrist at the top, similar posture, similar turn & lateral moves through the ball. The 1 big difference is he lets his trail foot move back and in at/after impact. Very similar in most aspects. Many ams could learn from all 3 of their foot movements, a huge mistake many make is letting their trail foot/leg come up and out towards the ball before impact, good ball strikers have their trail foot pressure moving back& in before impact then it comes up and around. Scottie just let’s his foot slide with the momentum but all 3 of them’s trail foot is shifting pressure in the same direction not allowing early extension, a high handle at impact, that trail leg getting out towards the ball will usually cause heels/shanks for players that do the opposite and let that foot come up and out before impact. Same with other guys like Justin Thomas who raise their foot early, it’s moving back & in 1st then comes up and out after the ball is gone. JT and sheffler are 2 players I’ve heard people use to justify claiming foot work is irrelevant, but it certainly is not irrelevant, you can lift early if your doing the correct way but no good strikers allow that trail foot/leg to come up & out towards the ball before impact, that’s a recipe for poor strikes and probably shanks. All 3 have extremely similar swings.

@@TheWedgeWizard you are a genius I was always wondering why I would hit occasional shanks, I think this mixed with a little bad alignment definitely caused it. I play of a 2 handicap and it’s crazy cause it will come out of nowhere

@@alexgraham2235 that trail foot/leg every time. 🤙

brilliant, I hit an 84 on a 9-hole. Cheers PGA Tour 👍

Sure, but this is not Trevor, it’s Mark

There aren’t many tour pros who haven’t consistently tinkered with their swings. John daily, bubba Watson are 2 I can think of, but most players are constantly tinkering and trying to improve. Tigers swing really hasn’t changed that much, it got a little longer and more square in the late 90’s, a little flatter and fanned open around 05-15, now it’s a little higher at the top similar to 2000. everyone’s swing is going to evolve over years and years, especially when they get older and your body changes. I’d say guys like Ricky Fowler have made way bigger changes to their swings. Jordan sleuth just made some changes, Sergio’s swing has changed a lot, Justin rose, ect. They’re all consistently tinkering and trying to ingrain changes for the better. It’s ingraining the changes to become instinctive that’s the hard part, it’s easy to consciously change different aspects but to get to the point where you don’t have to think about it is the hard part.

I agree...that's the greatest golf swing ever created. He turned pebble Beach in us open conditions into a par 68 muni from the red tees with that swing...

​@TheWedgeWizard but why tinker when you're winning 30% of your tournaments if not more...he was humiliating the rest of the tour with his 2000 swing. Nobody else has played like that ever. Other players never won at that rate so tinkering is understandable. I agree too about daly and Watson...they have home made swings and pure talent to use them with perfect timing...

@@TheWedgeWizard I guess I shouldn't have used the word "tinker." What I meant was - Woods made MAJOR swing changes with different coaches and swing theories over the course of his career, and was still able to win consistently. I agree that everyone makes small adjustments on a day-to-day basis. But few pros, once they undertake big changes, can return to their top form.

Has nothing to do with god

Wrong but u have a right to your opinion

@@JYO2023 still has nothing to do with god

Mike Austin was way better. Tiger had major problems and kept changing it

Mike Austin???? Really??? 82 wins, 15 majors and you go with Mike Austin? It’s like knowingly choosing the horse that’s only fast off the line but can’t get to the 1/4 mile, instead of the one that wins the race over and over and over.

Mike Austin! Dear lord…

Mike F’in Austin

You could’ve picked Jones, Snead, Hogan, Byron Nelson, Nicklaus, Miller, Rory, Couples but you went with Mike Austin… Jesus.
