Hint hint. Lead foot post impact.

Agree.  Maybe its because he's right handed, or because he doesn't have the right knee kick way back either but he doesn't remind me of Bubba all that much.

I definitely expect this kid to be top 5 very soon! :bugout:

The low wide takeaway with the high position at A4 is pretty similar as well.

I don't think he is even looking at the ball at impact.

The foot reminds me of Reed/Bubba Watson.

The head swivel A5-A6 - Annika Sorenstam

And the Zach Johnson stiff straight arms, right arm lining up with shaft:

Golf swings are like snowflakes.

Bubbs

Nah. I don't think Bubba's swing is nearly as "stiff"/mechanical.

Though, I think the young man in the video has a decent swing.

In my bag Driver: Cleveland CG tour black Fairway Woods: Diablo Octane 3 wood; Diablo 5 wood Irons: Mizuno MP53 5-9 Hybrid: Cobra 3, 4 T-Rail Wedge: 46* Cleveland, 50* Cleveland, 54* Titleist, 60* Titleist Putter: Odyssey protype #6 Ball: Maxfli U4/U6... But I'm not really picky about the ball I use.

Immediately after impact I think they all look similar.

It's the posture, backswing, transition, the release, the finish..... that I think are different.

IMO, overall, Bubba's look like home made swing. The young man swing looks much more mechanical, like he was trained to swing like that... but still a nice swing....I'm sure as he matures, so will his swing.

Just pointing out the part I think is pretty similar, also A4 is similar and so is A2-3 with just a bit more hinge.  Other than that they are a bit different.

Sure....

I agree that if you make a frame by frame comparison you will find similarities. But I think you'll find similarities between any two golfers.

Heck, you may even find a few similarities between my swing and Adam Scott's, whom I think has the best swing in the world right now.

But I'm talking about the overall swing from start to finish.

Unfortunately for me, as a whole, my swing doesn't look anything like Adam Scott's, or like anyone else on the tour.  :-)

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
