For Tiger and Jordan, way more power than Furyk.

If I was 30 years younger I'd want Tiger's swing when he was being instructed by Harmon.  Today at age 48, I'll take Freddy Couples too.

I finally can say that I have Phil Mickelson's swing!!!

Phil Mickelson didn't hold back in describing his struggles in the first round of the CIMB Classic on Thursday.

"I can't remember swinging this bad in a long time," Mickelson told Golf Channel after opening his 2013-14 PGA TOUR season with a 1-under 71 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. "I can't find the middle of the club face. And I'm not sure if the ball is going to go dead left or snap hook right and it's a frustrating time tee to green."

Mickelson said he's been struggling since taking a week off following his victory at The Open Championship. He's worked with his instructor Butch Harmon but hasn't been able to solve the issues.

"It's way off right now," he said. "It's as far off as it's ever been."

Mickelson started on the back nine, making birdies on two of his first three holes. After going out in 2 under, he double-bogeyed the second hole after taking a penalty for a wayward tee shot. He also made double bogey on the ninth, his last hole of the day.

"I'm swinging awful. I'm swinging terribly at the ball," he said. "The lead for me right now is irrelevant. It's so far off that that's the last thing on my mind, because I just don't know where the ball's going."

Afterward, Mickelson said he's trying something different on every swing in an attempt to correct the issue.

"I would go hit balls, but I don't know what to do to try to fix it. I don't even know what to try to do," he said.

I said Dufner, but I really like Bryd's move as well.

D.J..also one of the longest hitters on tour.

For an older pro's swing, Freddy Couples.

A guy who didn't win a lot ( I think 4 or 5) but still had probably the best looking swing on tour during the 80's and early 90's Tom Purtzer. I just love Freddys tempo also.

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • 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.
