I believe Furyk has been identified as a Hitter previously on one of the tgm boards. Someone mentioned his driver clubface being being set up a few degrees closed.
That'd be me!

Someone on bombsquad worked in a tour van for the weekend and helped with his clubs. All of the driver's were closed and make sense due to his angled hinge action

Furyk is actually nearly in the PUSH position at the 9-2-9 position.

I've noticed that several players appear to be in a Punch or similar position when viewed from down the line, but still have a big #2 Accumulator and good impact conditions when viewed from the face on view. Davis Love and Byron Nelson, for example. What are your views on this?

I still think Furyk is using a Reverse Shift, Angled Hinging, and has a kind of "gravity assisted rotary whip-sling", more a form of a Swing than a Hit, although he does have some characteristics of a Hitter. Sometimes the Hitter vs. Swinger is difficult to identify. Mr. Doyle, I think, calls them "classy hitters".

I think this is an interesting, and hopefully uncontentious topic!!
