Actually listening to him and some of his tips and comments were how many would say TGMish...

Practices one arm left pitch shots. His reasoning was that this was good for the full swing, if you can make crisp contact then you are doing stuff right.

This one arm is not just limited to the pitching wedge but also with the putter.

Talked about it is where the clubface is aimed, not your feet in his opinion.

There were some others. If you haven't watch it, not a bad 30 minutes if I have to say so.

Funny you say that - I actually thought the opposite. Goes to show how perceptions can be sooo different.

My take. Lead arm swings - never to a straight arm (though he does seem to focus on uncocking the wrists). Strong double action (assuming he continued with the same grip, which he does). Mostly, by his own admission (I think), he relies on feel in itself (versus feel from mechanics).

I'd like to see it again to take your perspective. I havent seen it in a long time....who knows, maybe he's a GSEB.

Bucket is 10-2-D but should not be mentioned in such high company! The only thing I got in common with 3 out of the 4 is being overweight! I may be short and fat . . . but I'm slow.

I watched the Daly thing tonight . . .

Daly hitting those Left Hand shots illustrates the following to me:

1. Throwing the Clubface at the ball
2. Left Hand Paddlewheel Motion
3. Left Arm Flying Wedge
4. Law of the Flail
5. Loading the #4 Pressure Point
6. Full Lever Extension

How many beers do you think it would take to get JD to listen to an explanation of those?

Love that dude! He needs one more Major. Wonder what size jack that dude would wear . . . something in green.
