It tickles me to hear the TV announcers gush about Matsuyama’s “great tempo”. The young Japanese star, winner of the Memorial Tournament, is about as unconventional when it comes to rhythm and tempo as you will ever see. Matsuyama’s rhythm is 5:1, which in a world where the vast majority of players use a 3:1 rhythm is like slow motion in the backswing. Not only that, Matsuyama has no “catch” at the top of his swing, preferring to come to almost a complete stop before driving with the hips. It’s not surprising that he is regarded as having great tempo…

Sometimes I analyze a swing for the first time and am fascinated by things I didn’t expect to see. That is the case with JB Holmes, who does a bunch of cool stuff in his swing that allows him to be one of the game’s longest hitters even with what appears to be a less than full swing.

So, what we get to do is a standard Wayne D. analysis without the problem of camera angles and moving cameras, and we can really see just how good this is and how he has improved from the last time I analyzed his swing. The big thing here is that he has fixed the upper…

Here is an email from Matthew Latham. As you will see, he has an excellent swing that would pretty much defy naked eye analysis. In other words, it looks good at full speed, and I’m sure Matthew has people telling him that he shouldn’t be so “mechanical” and that it is “all in his head”. Of course, Matthew knows that his swing is not producing consistent results, and that what casual observers note about the swing is usually general at best and not worth much when it comes to offering anything constructive to make it work better. As you will…
