Reputation says Moe was pretty long off the tee when he was young. Most of the tapes and pictures of him is from his old days, and even though his swing was close to a one-planer early on, he looked a lot more conventional back then.

or maybe another "client appreciation" setting, Moe said he hit a 4 wood 225 and a driver 310!

Kevin or Jerry will tell you my swing is slowwww, so I'd settle for 250 yards with anything. A strong cold front is giving us another 55 degree day with very strong winds (gusts past 60 mph), but I'm going to the semi-enclosed range with 10 enclosed wooden bays after school and I will be hitting punch shots with everything I have. I bet I can punch my Adams Speed driver 250 yard (on purpose) and my Titleist Z's seem to like my Moe Norman/S& T imitations so they should love the Punch shot!

I'm having a hard time separating the two (Norman/S&T) in my head with both having a closed stance, TSP and weight forward. In S&T my head stays close to my front leg. Norman kept his head back so?

In any case, my swing works best when my weight stays forward. The big experiment today is whether or not I punch better with my weight forward or back entirely on my longer right leg.

I'd love to compare notes with you guys to help my strategic thinking on this. We all need a consistent Swing or Hit to have a chance to really use our short game so if you are doing something that is working as you play with these TGM variables, please let me know!

Four of Yoda's tapes still blow me away. The Vertically Uncocking Left Wrist, the cold-weather driver and the impact bag all amaze me.

I have questions.

1) Is the Vertically Uncocking Left Wrist shot a "Sweep?"
2) Is Lynn's FBRW really level in his "Yoda busted that ball." Driving Tape? Does that mean that his feeling of take-away is like lifting the club up-pane with a straight arm? WOW, does that feel strange!
3) In the impact bag tape, does Yoda feel like he rolls his back shoulder through the bag with his right arm extended stiffly or does he roll AND extend the right arm like a two-stage booster?
4) In the Barclay's tape of the fella on the TSP, does he feel like he stays on the TSP back and through, or does he feel the elbow plane in the down-stroke? How does a person swing on TSP? Trying it makes me feel like my arms are out of control and then I can kiss my"mind in my hand s" goodbye!


Anyway, that's all I have for now.
