Kostis Video Thread ;)

Face On View

Set up actually looks good from this position. I would have her flare her feet for some freebie stuff, center pivot and weight forward.

Her issue right now would be keys number 1 and 2, which makes her struggle to get key 4. Her head shifts back a good 6-8 inches. The she basically keeps it there and gets stuck on her back leg. She tries to save the sht by releasing early.

Down the Line View

Her set up is actually pretty ideal. Unlike Kostis, I think she maintains that knee flex in the back knee to much. Kostis drew us a nice line there. It looks like she just rotated her knee outward to allow that hip to turn a bit, but she mostly shifts laterally over to that back leg.

LOL @saevel25 , thanks for the laugh.

[iacas]

That was horrible. The kid doesn't keep the right knee flexed the same, either…

[Slowcelica]

LOL this was worse than the critique of the pro's swing, and then he also tried to be funny and say Tony's swing was bad, when he is a scratch golfer and up till a few years ago was trying to make it into the US Open.

Watching this live made me so sad.

I am confused about his advice here. She does not regain flexion which is a big issue, but it is not because she lets her right leg straighten. His advice should have been helping to regain flexion and then moving to extension. Anyways.

P.S. The kid shanked it.

Anyone catch this weeks with Clark Kellogg's swing? I actually agree with some of it, his wrist hinge was horrendous!

I saw it. That swing was so bad you could give any generic advice and not be wrong.

I agree, the swing was horrible and Kostis tried hard not to dis him too badly.  Who's next Charles Barkley?

Lol, I wonder what he would say about his.

Watching that made me feel so good about my swing.

Kostis showed his own swing during the tournament this last weekend.  Whose right knee is straighter at A4?

(He was demonstrating a drill keeping a glove between his right arm and chest.  But that's the point--he wasn't thinking about the right knee and showed us what it really does in his own swing.  I.e., it straightens.)

Hope you're not going by the back of his pant leg. Looks to me like both have similar R knee flex in pics and would look so if he were wearing shorts too.

That's the point.

Sorry. Thought you were saying it straightens a whole lot more than his wife's about the same seems right (I haven't seen his address position).

Ha! That's Candace Romo, Kostis can only dream about her being his wife.

Whoops!
