... stumbled upon this video last night and had to post it. damn, these are some hideous swings. its a wonder how they all can hit the ball straight. one thing i noticed though, is pretty much all the players today follow the same swing pattern from downswing to follow through.

warning: this video is not for the faint of heart.

enjoy!

Trevino? A fantastic looking swing. Great ball striker.

I'm down to a 10 handicap. At this rate, I'll get to scratch at 90 years old!

My vote for the ugliest swing is Jeev Milkha Singh...it's a little nutty.

But honestly as ugly as it is, Jeev can really golf his ball and I bet he has taken quite a few bets from players who think his move on the ball is an indicator of how he scores.

The ugliest is definitely Earmonn Darcy.

Without a doubt, imo.

I just spent 10 minutes of my life ruining any semblance of a swing I may have posessed.

Just took 10 minutes to convince me i can make my ugly swing work

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
