As Seen on TV: Kratzert on Woods: Head Steady? I Don’t Think So

By Wayne | Videos: As Seen On TV and Extras

I find it hard to believe that a guy who fancies himself as a golf “expert” would put such wrongheaded nonsense out for public consumption. Bill Kratzert is proving himself to right in there with Johnny Miller, Nick Faldo, Brandel Chamblee, and the rest of the bunch when he steadfastly maintains that Tiger’s head is “steady”, not moving to the right or up and down when in fact the very video he is analyzing proves him to be totally wrong. I mean, the video is playing, Kratzert is commentating, and what he is saying has nothing to do with what…

Tiger at Bay Hill: Back to #1

By Wayne | Videos: Swing Analysis

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 trust on the golf course. This one has taken a few years to really kick in, and now it would seem that he is back to his dominating self. It’s pretty amazing that the guy can continually reinvent himself with different techniques, and we get…

Chamblee Changes his Tune on Tiger

By Wayne | Videos: As Seen On TV and Extras

If it wasn’t obvious before, it certainly should be now: Brandel Chamblee, like the finest politicians, will say whatever fits the situation, paying no mind to anything he has said in the past. I suppose that is the nature of television. You are required to fill up space and do it in an interesting fashion in order to keep your job. If you can make it look like you are an authority and can conjure up a little controversy as well you might even become a star. Chamblee has smartly chosen Tiger Woods as the main subject for his analysis,…

Chamblee on Tiger’s Hand Path: Borrowing from a Great Source

By Wayne | Videos: As Seen On TV and Extras

There is very little original thought on display in golf instruction, and the truth is that every morsel of such originality is eventually taken by those who are looking for ideas and used for their own benefit. In some cases the ideas are paraphrased to make it seem that they weren’t borrowed, and in other cases the owner of the original thought is credited for the information, which is, of course, the more honest way to do things. There are other instances in which information is blatantly plagiarized and no credit is given, which is what I believe is on…

Swing Analysis: Tiger Woods Wins at Torrey Pines 2013

By Wayne | Videos: Swing Analysis

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 “on”. It would appear that his short game, putting, and shot making abilities have returned full force, and his swing is better than ever, and I include any of the years that people will bring up, including 2000. I realize that he played better in…

Swing Analysis: Tiger and Rory at the Barclays

By Wayne | Videos: Swing Analysis

With Tiger and Rory playing together at the Barclays there were a number of holes where they hit similar shots on camera. Here we look at an iron shot on the par 5 7th, after hitting drives of 330 (Tiger) and 335 (Rory). The camera angles are quite similar, so we get a nice chance to compare their swings. What we see are two very different methods to hit the ball long and straight, while noting some similarities as well. They are the two most charismatic and interesting players alive, and being able to study their swings in detail is…

Tiger at Congressional: Hah – I Told You So

By Wayne | Videos: Swing Analysis

This is for all the knuckleheads who questioned the greatest player of our generation on his golfing judgment, most notably his choice of coaches and the swing technique that they have been working on for about a year and a half, not coincidentally about the exact amount of time Tiger said it would take for the changes to feel comfortable. I can see where people rightly questioned his ability to overcome his knee and Achilles injuries, because when physical problems become too pronounced any kind of high level golf swing is nearly impossible. Luckily he has been able to get…

Swing Analysis: Tiger at the Memorial 2012

By Wayne | Videos: As Seen On TV and Extras

So you tell me: how cool is it to hear Peter Kostis and Gary McCord talking about “compressing into the ground” during both the backswing and the forward swing? I have to think that there’s no way they are not watching my videos. I know Peter is for sure, because my head pro told me Peter was pissed at me for calling him out in a few of my previous videos. If that’s the case then I say OK, because that bit on Tiger on Sunday was the best thing Kostis has done maybe ever. My goal all along is…

As Seen On TV: Once Again TV Announcers Ignore What Is Right In Front Of Them

By Wayne | Videos: As Seen On TV and Extras

Every time Tiger plays the announcers simply have to come up with something. If he’s playing good, they’ll tell you why, and if he’s playing bad, they’ll tell you why. But how often do they actually get it right? Always seems that whenever Tiger is playing good they seem to think he’s not dipping as much.
