And tell Foley to quit video taping him, and giving Tiger immediate feedback. It must be driving him crazy. I would tell Foley to STFU.

You've got to think that if Tiger thought that way he'd have fired Foley a long time ago. That's kind of the Foley package.

See this is the thing here. Tiger believes in Foley when he shows him the videos. This is what's messing with his head. Tiger doesn't realize it's not good for him, that's why he's out there trying to perfect every part of his swing.

This leads to a mumblejumbled head full of swing thoughts. Which is not good for Tiger, or anybody including me. I would tear my eyes out if my swing coach filled me with that much crazy stuff.

Speak for yourself. I've found video and swing thoughts extremely helpful, and I imagine Tiger does as well (or he would have, like I said, left Foley months ago).

I was referring to the barrage of information loaded into Tigers brain.

One or Two swing thoughts, sure, and an occasional video to show you what you're doing, great.

But Foley is over-doing it. After every single swing at the range he's showing Tiger videos. I mean it's hilarious.

Sez you. I like to practice that way. I get better faster. You can play with different feelings or variations and see which produces the desired results.

Tiger Woods is not coachable by his recent choices.  He has had Foley and Haney and has not really improved.  Possibly he has worsened.  He burned the bridge to Harmon.  He is not the analyzer but plays by feel.  He needs his old swing with a tweek here or there and not a whole new swing.  all the swing thoughts just ruin his natural talent.  When he was 6 years old hitting balls on TV, his swing was better than now.  He'll win when left alone by coaches who coach by the number and gets a caddy like Williams that encourages and pushes him along.

Especially the ones who say he just has to go back to the 2000 swing.  You have to wonder where they have been, as Tiger has had to fight through the injuries to his knee that the 2000 swing exacerbated.  Sure, keep the 2000 swing and shred your knee.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

      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.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      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?
