First time I've filmed my swing in a few weeks and have been playing well. Figured I'd see what you guys thought

Thats just a great golf swing, you must me amazingly flexible as you really can turn that left shoulder down in the backswing, so much so it maybe inside of the ball......it hards my back just looking at it. I love your COG transfer though from the top, top notch stuff there.

DC: We are lucky to have you on this forum and posting your swings. Watch that fade swing or you're going to have to think about changing your screen name to "Macjunior"

From Today, last swings I'll be filming for a while at the very least until after Open Qualifying.

Richie or anyone, don't you think it looks like BM's soft draw patten.

I don't think it looks much like BMs SD pattern actually. The club never crosses the line at the top. Deeper back swing without "high hands." Low and left finish...
I could be missing something, but other than the results (soft draw) I don't see any resemblance.

Very different over all.

i think i said it because of the ways your hands gets deep on the turn back and don't "pop out" down the line. The hands come inside and then go up on plane. I think it was just the take away that had me thinking about it. I don't think it looks much like BMs SD pattern actually. The club never crosses the line at the top.

Dan, I can see that you are using a S&T swing style, which is usually associated with AH. Consider these two swings - from your video sequence. I can readily accept that you are using AH, rather than HH, in image 1. However, do you also believe that you are using AH, rather than HH, in image 2? Jeff.

What does it matter Jeff? All I care about is the rate of closure which is very low in my swing so I hit the ball without a ton of curve. Don't really understand why you try to come after me. Where is your swing? Who do you teach? All I care about is rate of closure through impact Attachments:

Dan,
You wrote-: "What does it matter Jeff? All I care about is the rate of closure which is very low in my swing so I hit the ball without a ton of curve."
I actually believe that whether a golfer uses HH, rather than AH, does influence ball flight. However, I don't believe that it necessarily affects the rate of clubface closure during the 1/4,000 second time-period of impact. Most of the slow-motion impact photos that I have seen show that there is < 1 degree of clubface closure through impact, and I am not convinced that it is greater when a golfer uses HH, rather than AH. However, I do believe that the choice of HH, rather than AH, does influence ball flight - even though I have never discovered a satisfactory explanation for the phenomenon.
You wrote-: "Don't really understand why you try to come after me. Where is your swing? Who do you teach?"
I am passionately interested in being more precise about golf swing mechanics/biomechanics, and I am simply targeting my comments at certain golf swing elements - where we have previously "agreed to disagree".
By the way, I do not teach golf, and you would learn nothing useful from my imperfect swing (other than the fact that an inflexible golfer has to use many compensatory moves to execute a reasonably decent swing).
Jeff.
