Got these pics off a video an instructor who did an analysis of his swing so P8 is a little off.

Definitely a good one to use as a good example of an efficient motion.  Dynamics are great, all the pieces moving in relation to one anther which gives it flow and makes it look good.  Things that stand out to me is how close he keeps his elbows together compared to other players and really squeezes the elbows together from P4-5.  Just looks like he could make the entire motion with a ball between his arms.  Keeps his head very centered.  Can see he does this losing flexion in his rear leg, shoulders and hips turn on an incline plane.  Returns to P1 knee flexion at P5, which is ideal.  Using a strong attachment (grip) and has the hands raised higher at P1 than "average".

Here's some Trackman data that Erik shared a couple months ago.

Thanks, much better DTL than I could find. He looks like a beer bellied Robert Rock at P4. Amazed at how close Boo gets his elbows, considering his broad upper torso.

Would you say his shoulder turn would fits Flat or Rotated?

Is it flatter than you would like?

If it is flatter, how does he keep his head so centered?

I was stunned by the stats you quoted, because Boo had a terrible year. No top tens, only one top 25, missed ten cuts. Drive for show, put for dough.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      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.
