According to Theodore P. Jorgensen: "The Physics of Golf", more wrist cock translates to more clubhead speed.

And ... he seems to have restored the power advantage he had a few years ago.

Yes I meant longer swing.

As for longer distance, the length of the swing is only one of many factors in determining the results.

It will be interesting to see in another six months what evolves in this swing and compare those pictures to a new one.

His face is shut in that picture because that is how he hits a cut....

closed clubface and angled hinge.

Interesting comment. Could you explain the logic and what evidence there is that

a. He is using angled hinging (normally a hitter's choice)?

b. That he was hitting a cut shot?

c. Closed aligment in reference to plane or wrists/hands or to ground?

I am asking to get a better understanding, I really can't tell what type of shot or if he is hitting or swinging (actually my guess based on several factors is that he is swinging, not hitting but then we are only looking at one frame of the swing)

Thanks (always interested in gaining a better understanding)

Ya man...I dunno...he must be holding it off more and kind of swinging more to right field...that's prolly why he's getting those pushes too.

All I know is if I look like that at the top I have to really swing out to the right with angled hinging or I will hook the hell out of it. I can hit it well like this but I do get straight pushes quite a bit.

Who is this anyway? That forearm is on plane perfectly.

The 2000-2001 swing of Tiger is better than his new swing, why would he take lessons from a guy who had the yips with a driver. :shock: 460 cc how can you not keep it some were on the golf course.

That would be Trig tongue firmly in his cheek. What you don't see is the massive clubhead throwaway from his bent left wrist... :D Just kidding.

Just kidding. Trig comes down through the ball better than anyone I've seen. He is a consumate tinkerer, but always looks like this coming down.

O lol I see I see. Looks pretty good at impact for sure.

Re: 2000-2001 TW
 

That could be a concern...or maybe it's good that he's found a guy who knows where he's coming from. I think Haney cured his yips (it was with that freaky weird swing- but w/e)...I'd think that would be an asset rather than a pitfall.

Tiger hits it solid pretty much everytime...he just pushes it like crazy...you can still be unaccurate with a big driver, you just aren't gonna miss the sweetspot. I just think the guy swings too hard...since when should you be lazer accurarate hitting it 350 or w/e?
