[12 piece bucket]

I thouhgt if anyone on the site would appreciate the number, you would. By the way, I thought 2006 was the year of the 13 piece bucket.

Back when pagers were the rave. We had a buddy that we would page with ole Jenny's number. That idiot never figured it out . . . "Dude somebody keeps blowing up my pager. Who the hell is 867-5309???" We had about half of the people in the bar in on it.

But Luke . . . man you can't get no 13 pieces of chicken in a bucket . . . unless you have an in at the drive thru. I'd have to be 10 piece box plus a three wing snack to get to 13. Doesn't have quite the same ring to it. Did somebody say ring? Who in the world is calling me from 867-5309???

When that song came out, this poor woman in Saratoga, CA had to have her number changed because kids were dialing 867-5309 around the clock.

I'm not sure there's a better Right Forearm Flying Wedge on Tour and it's there at set up to boot.


This is impressive

Did you get that number off the wall? I'm not sure there's a better Right Forearm Flying Wedge on Tour and it's there at set up to boot.

Indeed - the 'model' swinger IMO - nice contrast to Appleby

Now if he would only get his left arm flying wedge(lefty swing) more in line at setup.....................

EXACTLY! Appleby has "pure" alignments.

For the 'lefty' that would be the Left Forearm Flying Wedge.

Remember, the Left Hander's entire Right Arm lies within the plane of the perpendicular Right Wristcock Motion. Hence, the Right Arm Flying Wedge. However, only the Left Forearm -- not the upper Left Arm -- lies in the plane of the Clubshaft / Sweetspot. Hence, the Left Forearm Flying Wedge.

And there you have an interesting observation.

For Wier, who is a true swinger, there is not really a 'significant' issue with the trail arm wedge not being set properly at address, because he, like a good true swinger, does not 'add' through impact. Meaining he is all 'lead wedge' (in his case, right wedge).

This, in contrast to Tiger, who despite his attempts at becoming a true swinger, still has the urge of the hitter, to add right (trail) arm at impact - hence the fact that his trail arm wedge is off at address IS a big problem.

If anyone has access to shot link patterns for Weir, I'd suspect that his misses, especially under pressure, are to the left.


In either case, yes, both of them would, in the long run, be best served by correcting this issue at address.

EdZ,
Weir does not set up as with the left forearm in line with the shaft. At impact it is inline. Does he not have to make some sort of club face manipulation to be correct at impact?
