It is good stuff...Imagine what it was like when it was "sharpened" when he was healthy and competing as oppossed to injured and tinkering?
Man it was awesome to watch him PLAY(I watched him a few times when I was working with Clearwater)...He played different from anyone I've ever seen...Even though he didn't score well...He played like Picasso or Michaelangelo...But a few sloppy "strokes" with the "brush" made his artwork go unappreciated....
It doesn't take much to turn a 65 into 75...as we all know!!!

Clearwater had/has one of my personal favorite motions. Very 'clean'. No wasted motion, a lot like Purtzer, just not as smooth tempo/transition.
I've only see a few clips of mac in motion, and many stills (was in '85 or so that one of the mags did a sequence?). If anyone has clips of mac during his 'prime' I'd love to see them. These are a real treat. Thanks for posting them.

Do you think people are scared to look at O'Grady...Or do they just don't want to see anything but what they're "trained" to see...I know his set-up is unorthodox.. So wasn't Moe Norman....two of the BEST were NOT orthodox in set-up...BUT in-swing ...SHOW me 2 Better that are still LIVING !!!

People are generally scared of things they do not understand. Thats one of the reasons why TGM has been out of the golfing publics eyes for so long. The golfing machine shows why their stroke functions the way it does and what compensations must result...... like Homer said (paraphrasing) "there is no need to discuss patterns as better or worse as there are many precision patterns except on the basis of ideal mechanical advantage"....
