The PGA Tour's official YouTube channel put out 4 short videos on Tiger Woods recently. I haven't seen them posted yet, so here they are. [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvP1LUlfAbE&feature;=g-all-u[/video] [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RowXnGKTdjg&feature;=youtu.be[/video] [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xxu6Srn4AC8&feature;=youtu.be[/video] [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_OtPORDeyE&feature;=youtu.be[/video] It seems like the goal was to re-invigorate interest in him (and thus golf) by reminding us of how good he was and the fact that he's picked back up recently while competing against the younger generation of golfers his legacy helped build. But it almost came across with something of a "farewall" vibe, like the homage you pay when a great athlete retires.

I don't take any of it as a retirement homage. All 4 of those come across as a warning shot of watch out for this guy, remember what he used to do? At least that's how I saw them.

I agree that's how they were intended. But I thought it had a [i]subtle[/i] feel of the homage aspect. Regardless, it looks like they're hoping he'll bring some more popularity to the game.

There was a video that I saw on golf channel around december a promo for pga tour 2012 and it was about how tiger showed he could win on a broken leg but not a broken mind. I have looked and looked for that commercial but can not find it. gave me chills and would love for somebody to share it if they could find it.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.

      Width at P4 Has Downstream Effects on P6 and P7

      I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
