Have you seen Haney's driver swing lately? In a word, inspiring. As in, inspiring me to vomit uncontrollably.

Love to see the Green guy swing it.

How would you describe your start of the backswing...there doesn't appear to be any forward press to initiate the backswing. It appears to be more of a hands, arms and shoulder turn (maybe in that sequence) that begins and brings your arms back to parallel to ground at the half way point in your backswing. Although what is difficult to see is that it may actually start from the ground up. Am I close?

we can see constant extensor action in his backswing

I'd be curious to get your opinion. If this was the motion of one of your students, what would you like to see them improve on? Where would you have them add more precision? Looks very dynamic and balanced to me.........

The first three things would be to lose 25 pounds; get stronger and more flexible; and play more. I recently have begun working on all three.



Other than that . . .

I'd narrow the Stance (but not much) and move the ball up a fraction. I still fight a slight tendency to Sway (although the Head position looks pretty good here), and I think that would help. It would also aid the Pivot (clearing the Right Hip) and make getting back to my left side easier.

And I would continue to work on my Impact alignments, specifically Impact Hands Location and Wrist Conditions (Flat Left and Bent Right). I still tend to lose Lag Pressure through impact more than I'd like. As usual, the menace here is overacceleration from the Top, and I'm as guilty as the next guy.

I've been working on keeping my head stationary. I have noticed that when I sway I tend to lose the lag. Can someone articulate how swaying and the loss of lag pressure are connected? Is swaying the initial sign of over accelaration? I am amazed that you (Yoda) are adding more precision with regards to your stationary head...you look like a tether ball pole!

Second question: Other than Stuart Appelby and Brian Gay what other top players are good examples of the tripod?
