He's a guy who regularly plays at our club. He comes everyday from the very early morning and never leaves before sunset. He has one of the strangest swings you can ever see. I am sure you've never seen this before and will never see it anywhere!!

it's a facebook video, so I am not sure if non-facebook users will be able to see it. If you can't, contact me on PM, I can give you the email and password for an extra fb account I have, you can login and watch it. IT'S WORTH IT!

I used to play regularly with a man in his 80s. He was very good and would regularly score better than his age (he is truly inspirational) I have since moved, and should call him to see if he can play a round. He had lost a lot of flexibility and opens the clubface way open at address on every full swing. He would also align the club out side of the ball (similarly to the video). I think he does this because he doesn't have the flexibility to strike the ball from the inside. He has the swing grooved and strikes it down the middle just about every time. However, he doesn't do that crazy side step.

Is this really a bad swing just because he tries to hit a POWERfade...........



The swing itself isnt that exceptional, but his "preshot routine" really is awesome...
