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.
