No he isn't. Hasn't been accurate for a few years now. Your swing is not like Tiger's.

To be fair, I don't think TMAC was basing it on one video.  In fact, I don't think he needed a video at all.  I believe he was basing it on the fact that the kid is 14 and said he had only been playin

I am not sure what you all are so surprised about....On Tuesday, I shot over 73 for the first time in a month! If you saw my swing that would surprise you. PS....on a side note (and maybe no

You must be freaking Butch Harmons teacher if you can tell that. But once again, my swing is very consistent.

There's a big difference between a 4-5 handicap and a scratch player. And a player that shoots even par every round isn't necessarily a scratch player.

And please utilize the "multi-quote" feature instead of posting 10 straight times.

It was required.. IDK why it is, but i was. I just put down a number that I've been averaging for the past week. N/A fits better IMO

Oh, I get it now. You were playing an executive par 3 course of where the par is 54, and you shot 73, which is +19. Makes sense now, thank you.

I know that it's required. I had to register too.

I'm just not sure how you figure that you're a scratch golfer if you have been shooting 4-5 over par since you started back up three weeks ago.

I see similarities between you and Tiger - you are both holding a club, and you hit a ball with it, but you have Adam Scott's move covered 100%.

Probably not what you want to hear, given that Tiger is no 1, but there it is.

To add to this, Adam Scott does NOT by any means have a bad swing. I personally love Scott's swing with his irons.

I like his swing more than Tiger's.

Edit: "his" = Adam Scott, not the OP

I guess it's a good thing, but I'll work on all of your guys' advice to make my swing more like Tigers.

Tiger at adres is much more upright. You have way to much knee flex. indeed more like Jim's swing.

Than the first part of the take away tiger takes back the club back with club face well outside his hands

yours seems to be inside your hands. This is the same in the follow trough. Only the other way around.

tiger comes back to the inside and you are outside.

I think you should focus on making a swing that works for you, not the swing off the most powerfull player

( bodywise ) on tour. Comparing your body shape to tiger's body shape your way off trying to copy his swing.

And claiming you got excellent results. As for that you might look more at Justin Rose or something.

      Favorite Las Vegas Course

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.

      Day 283: Putted on my mat for a while watching an NLU video. Worked on keeping my head still primarily, and then making sure my bead is okay.
