It’s always nice to get swings from the television broadcasts that employ fixed cameras. As we know, any hand held camera precludes the use of drawing lines to see where the movement occurs in the swing because It is impossible to hold a camera perfectly still while filming. Usually at a Tour event the fixed cameras are on tee boxes for obvious reasons, and in this case we have both Scott and Mcilroy teeing it up on a par 3. The extra good news is that they tee off from almost exactly the same spot, which means we can do a side by side comparison of their swings and have some faith that we are comparing apples to apples. Both of these guys are great players: in looking closely at their swings we are not trying to criticize or find things we think could be improved, but rather we are observing so that we can see why they hit the ball so well. Every player has their own quirks and tendencies, and here we see that both these guys, especially Rory, have some interesting things going on.
