On Tour, expecially now with Trackman, I think the small pulley type swing will diminish some. I agree....it looks sexy as hell, but...to hold the ball on rock hard greens, you gotta hit it high...which requires a more random release.

I agree with the above. I hate the full sweep, but a more random release is preferable for being able to hit all the shots.

Also, Boo don't do the finish swivel, he kind of holds it off, like Mr. O'Grady....and Hogan

Blackburn, Blackjack Mulligan, Blackberry Bob . . . who-the-heck-ever would a HUGE MONUMENTAL MISTAKE to de-lag Boo in my humble marginally retarded opinion.

If you want to get Boo to hit the ball up . .. get him to move his hips forward and up quicker . . . which will also get the club releasing sooner.

Don't touch his power package (uh huh) . . .

Boo does swivel but it's way late due to the trigger delay and related motions.
