tiger and that strange follow through

Jerry1967-

Annikan may be an acquired taste on this forum, but you will be VERY hard pressed to find two people on any forum that knows more about the golf swing then AS. Skywalker doesn’t spoon feed you information but allows one to think about the answer and the question. And he has fun- I mean how many times can someone answer the same questions with the same answer. Enjoy what he presents- you may like what YOU discover.

peace


btw- I wish everyone could have seen or heard AS's presentation of how the spine works in a golf swing. Those who did understand the relationship between the back swing, axis tilt and why the stationary head exists. (because the spine is not a constant set tilted angle but adjusts itself throughout the stroke-oops) AS Rocks!

i am at peace with everbody on here. sorry, maybe someday i will stop and try to figure out what annikan is saying.

We could uncock it from level to uncocked.

i thought in the golf swing we do not cock the right wrist. so how do we uncock the rt wrist if we do not cock?

[jerry1967]

i believe you when you say skywalker knows the golf swing and i thank him for looking at my thread. i quess i am not smart enough to figure his answers.

Hi Jerry,

TGM defines three possible wrist states: uncocked, level and cocked. The right wrist should ideally remain level - this can be defined as a straight line from the second knuckle on your thumb (counting from thumb tip) to the wrist bone and feels slightly uncocked as compared to how most hands naturally sit. (As an aside, I actually prefer the alternative definition which I think I saw Mike O offer somewhere for a level (right) wrist - which is where the #3 pressure point is in line with the middle of the forearm).

Anyway, if your wrist is cocked it can uncock to level and then further uncock to uncocked. If it is level, it could still theoretically uncock to uncocked, even if the semantics sound kind of funny. But forget that, because you don't actually want to uncock your level right wrist, you just could if you wanted to!!!!!!

You don't ideally cock the right wrist because there is no need to... it stays level throughout. Its not actually that particularly hard, when expertly handled, to violate this principle when using a swinging procedure and get away with it but that doesn't make it right.

Tiger is trying to not swivel and is also trying to swing down the target line more instead of swinging more left.

That is why he looks the way he does.

Did Tiger tell you that or are you guessing from what you can observe?

Thanks.

Although NOT the follow -through...definitley Tiger imitating Ben Hogan... EA Sports....Get in the Game!!!

[birdie_man]

Hogan vs. Woods

• PGA Victories- 64 vs 50
• Majors- 9 vs 11
• Yearly Win Leader, yrs- 5 vs 7 (5 consecutive)
• Scoring Avg Leader,yrs- 3* vs 6

*includes 2yrs Vardon Trophy Point winner


In 3 years it will be a clean sweep on all these stats.
Not bad for 10 years of work.

Hogan didn't play much tho. (I've read)

And also only really started playing good in his 30s....and also almost lost his legs.....and would lose to Tiger in a putting contest....(although it IS part of the game...I'm not gonna try to put that out there as a real bigtime excuse)...

Truly can't take anything away from Tiger though. Just not Hogan either.

[birdie_man]

Have you ever studied Hogan's Swing?

Start with Pics from the Hogan Mystique?

Then some footage?

The read some of the nice posts made by other posters...

Do you think the wrsits need stay "uncocked" for that long..creating a follow-through arc that is that long....

Does the Finish swivel need to occur that late?

Does the re-cocking of the wrists need to be delayed that long?

Does the refolding of the elbows need to be articically created?

Does all the above really matter? you've already hit the ball!!!

Or does it affect other variables that occured in the impact to follow-through interval?

Gee ...if I have a high finish does the ball behave the same if I have a low left finish?

No...why is that?..i've already hit the ball..But for some unknown reason is does affect ball flight...Doesn't it!!!!!

What's this?

Can we get some elaboration up in here???

Or is this top-secret for authorized personnel only? (how does one become authorized....?...I can handle it.....)
