Are you?

You've not even provided a video to back up your assertions.


lol I have no video. If you read my earlier posts, I stated from what I have read, but mainly from 2 instructors I took lessons with, was advised to limit the head dipping.

Dear Colin Montgomerie:

Think of it this way: Rory isn't trying to win three straight events, he's trying to win the PGA. And given how well he's played lately, he's got as good a chance to do that as anyone. To think that i

I can always find an illegal stream I guess. If I come to Amsterdam, it will be for perhaps these:

If you watch Rory, you will see the same dip.  Some players use this to generate power.  They push hard off the ground just before impact.  If you want in slow motion, you will see the head return to the setup position.

@nevets88 just posted this video in the link below.  Look at the drop in Rory's head.

And Garcia's. I see a big head drop in my own swing recently and it doesn't bother me.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Chance of Heavy Thunderstorms Friday has been bumped up to 100%. Last time I saw a weather forecast like that was at Bethpage Black during the first round (and we know how that turned out).

We need a new rule in golf broadcasting:  Anybody who picks Jim Furyk to win a major (happens every major) gets a horse whipping.

I guess you're an instructor.


I am not, but I have discussed this topic before. I'm not saying you should try to let your head dip or that it's not a potential problem for you, just that it may not be an issue for Tiger. It's not like everyone has to swing the same way.

      U.S. Open Qualifying - How Would Your Course Hold up?

      By pganapathy ·

      Our home course would be very interesting.  It is short from the black tees (around 6000 yards) and very few holes are considered not reachable in GIR for golfers who drive max 250 off the tee.  But there are two difficulties.  Only 3 holes don't have an OB though admittedly in some cases it is just behind the green.  The harder part is almost all the fairways slope away on both sides from the centre meaning if you hit a draw or fade, you are likely to wind up at the edge of the fairway or off into the rough if you bounce in the wrong place.

      I assume the 3 iron in your iron set would do the job.  If you don't have the club, you should be able to buy it as a single club

      Day 45 (16 Jun 24) -  Happy Father's Day all - got in a few swings with the clubs, focused on alignment for chipping and pitching.  For me if the target it 12noon, I need to have my feet somewhere around 11 for a solid dead on line pitch/chip.  Worked from about 5yds out to 25yds.  Worked through a series of clubs - 54, PW, 8i and 6i - noting flight patterns of each.

      day 94. Realized I’m getting a little too handsy. Worked on getting the club into good places and much shorter, slower swings to learn the movement.
