If you want to see how much Tiger has changed his approach to his golf swing over the past decade just watch here and note the change in his pre-swing rehearsal. In 2010 at his winter event in California he is seen starting his downswing rehearsal with his hands moving behind him, his left arm […]

It’s not often that we get a TV view of any shot with a stable camera and a perfect camera angle, but here on the second hole at Augusta we get just that, and I take advantage of the opportunity to put Tiger inside the Wayne D. lines to see what his pivot is up […]

I should put a warning label on this video that says “Caution: Quite Physically Difficult to Accomplish”, although if you can get a bit closer to what Koepka does your swing will definitely improve. Staying bent over during the golf swing (not to mention getting even more bent over like Brooks does here) is possibly […]

In this video I look at Honda winner Keith Mitchell hitting a 91- yard wedge shot with a technique designed to control trajectory and spin. The shot can be interchangeably called a “knock-down”, a “3/4”, or a “cut off”, and the idea is by reducing the length of both the backswing and the follow through […]

Adam Scott has had one of the best swings in golf for a long time. I played with him the first two rounds of the 2001 PGA at Atlanta Athletic Club and it was fun to watch to say the least even though he didn’t play particularly well and missed the cut. It is not […]

This is a nice shot of Rickie Fowler pulling off a difficult pitch from a tight lie to a tucked pin. He needs to land the ball just over a bunker well left of the pin with medium-high trajectory as it will hit firmly and kick hard right. He chooses a leading- edge pitch where […]

Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson put on an awesome driving exhibition at the recent WGC tournament in Mexico. Here we see them on the same tee box filmed with the same camera, so we can watch and compare how they manage to hit it out there 370 to over 400 yards (it was at 8000 […]

As we know, the reports of Tiger Woods having irreversible pitching yips have been greatly exaggerated (Brandel and Hank). He has always had one of the best short games in history, and he is still getting it up and down from everywhere. Here we see a standard tight lie pitch shot where he chooses to […]

In comparing Rory’s swing over the past 9 years we see some differences in the backswing, namely the takeaway and the position of the club at the top, but in all the swings we see Rory add posture into impact and follow through and get through the shot with an amount of side bend unattainable […]

In this video we see Tiger hitting a couple of mid length (20-30 feet) putts, and there is a lot for everyone to learn from his set up routine, his stance, and his stroke. One key word is “relaxed”: his lack of stress is evident from the moment he starts walking toward the ball to […]
