I think Chamblee should become Tiger's next swing coach. He seems to know EXACTLY what is wrong with Tiger's swing.

And the next instructor Woods is hiring is... me!

And you're missing mine. Designating someone as a mechanic or an artist is totally useless because it means nothing. Literally nothing. One mans artist is another mans mechanic. Once again, Ben Hogan

Normally I think things between other people, that I know nothing about, are none of my business...

But I can't help wishing I knew the whole back story in this case. ;-)

I think the two best swings on tour are McIlroy and Scott, neither are coached by Foley. Not that Foley's students aren't successful, they are. I think Tiger just thinks its time for a change. It's obvious that the Foley swing is not holding up for him right now. Maybe it's too hard on his back.

Adam Scotts swing looks remarkably simular to Tiger

Maybe Woods should get Holly Sonders, she's his type and certainly has had the experience playing lessons from the pros.. :-D

So are we taking bets on who coaches him next? Or should we start a new thread for that.

Mine's back a couple of pages. Put me down for none of Paddy Power's picks.

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

Trust me. Florida has taxes. I'm reminded every time I buy anything.


My son lives in Tennessee (a no income tax state) and pays more in total taxes than I do.

I can't wait for Foley's book....

You're going to be waiting for a long time.

New thread.

Yep, I saw. I'd have to agree.

New thread.

Man, that sounds like a lot of work.. hehe.

Of course, now that I think about it, it's very possibly going to be someone the general golfing public isn't all that familiar with.

And just to keep my post nearer to the actual topic, I guess I don't really know enough about what they were working on to have an opinion. But I can venture to guess that Tiger thought four years was a long enough leash to see results in majors, regardless of any injuries or personal life issues that were also going on.

Also, does anyone think it may have been a slight dig at Tiger when Foley said that (paraphrasing) working with Tiger was "one of the highlights of my career." Shouldn't he have said " the highlight?" I know one could argue that Rose winning the US Open was the ultimate highlight, but you'd think getting to work with Tiger exclusively would be tops. Maybe I'm grasping at straws here haha. :-D

      My Favorite Putts

      By bkuehn1952 ·

      #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.

      Finally, wedges getting somewhere. This one a punch gap from 87 yards to about 12 feet. Contact and ball flight absolute restaurant quality. It's nice when grass comes back.

      Tiger on the Today show today. At 3:25 he says he's working on keeping his arms in more and rotating his hips better. Nice.
