I finally got around to going through my DVR of this year’s Masters, and what follows here are some random observations. I thought it was an exciting and fascinating tournament with lots of different techniques and personalities battling it out throughout the week. There is still a bunch of interesting stuff still to go over […]

I don’t usually watch the videos I do once I finish and send them off to be processed and eventually posted, but I watched this one over again and I have to say that the information here is new and different and very cool. In a rant against Tiger Woods and Sean Foley a couple […]

Watching Matt Kuchar swing should be enough evidence for anyone paying attention to prove that just about any combination of backswing arm, hand and wrist positions can be utilized to play great golf. Just compare Kuchar with Steve Marino, for example. Could there possibly be a greater discrepancy between left arm angles at the top […]

I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the changes Tiger has made in the last 3 or so years. People seem disbelieving when Tiger proclaims that a serious swing change or what turns out to be a whole pattern change takes a relatively huge amount of time to implement and then […]

It is a fascination among golfers to choose the player or players who would be considered to have the “best” swing on the Tour at any particular time. Back in the 40’s and 50’s the argument would have been between Hogan and Snead. In the 60’s both Palmer and Nicklaus had somewhat different looking moves […]

It’s almost comical how I try to prepare for a tournament by practicing more than usual, then get out on the course when it counts to find my back stiff and my body unwilling to move the way I want it to, and start thinking about retiring from competitive golf so I don’t have to […]

Not much to say here except that this is the best golf swing I have seen (of course, this is my opinion: that’s what you get here at WDGLC) since Hogan. I can’t imagine how the rest of the competitors, and that includes Rory McIlroy, are going to beat him if he is even somewhat […]

There aren’t very many available swing videos of Venturi, but the ones I present here are some of my all- time favorites, not surprising when you consider that his swing was about the closest to Hogan that you will find. The startling difference in the takeaways of the two iron swings shown here show a conscious swing change that I would love to ask Venturi about.

We all know that Calvin Peete was one of the most accurate drivers of the golf ball who ever played the game. We probably have some memory of Peete’s swing, a bit odd looking due to a poorly set broken arm as a youth, but the main memory is of a ball rolling down the […]
