It seems to me that CV is hitting like crazy with most of his shots.

I realize he is in superb shape but how can any person, by merely extending the right arm effectively produce as much force and drive as the same person would if they used their entire body as an effective counter-weight and catapaulted the ball through swinging?


I have come to this problem personally, on the practice tee. I see it and I can't believe it.

I shoot my impact hands (rigidly locked) down from my hitting position (shorter front leg giving me a boost probably)into the back inside quad of the ball and causes a crack like a hit baseball as it shoots straight out from low to high and then drops. No stress on entire body which I love.

When I pivot and twirl as I understand the swing,the hit has more spin,sounds different, has a little less distance and a more sustained carry through the air.

I would expect a "normal" or like CV, a super biomechanical golfer without my limitations to have better success swinging. I have that computer generated book by Davis Love Jr.s coach and they seem to indicate that the swinger wins.

I feel like a person looking at a hummingbird or bumble bee with his physics book open.


I will however keep knocking the stuffing out of the ball until I get within 100 yards. And then mini hits if I don't knock the approach in the hole!

Sure looked like he has a firm grasp of driving the #3 into the ball. Lot of lag pressure. He hit some amazing long iron shots from difficult places on a tough course along with some booming drives. He is strong and fit. Can he challenge Tiger?
