Chris Como Named Tiger's New Coach

[iacas]

He could be talking about a lateral shift of center of mass, not the head. In order to transfer your weight forwards your center of mass well also move forward, even if your head does not.

Your CoP might move 2 and 8 inches, but I doubt your CoM would in most good golf swings (unless you measure at the end of the swing when you're just standing there on your left foot, but that seems like a silly time to measure that).

Range swing, Tiger, range swing. That's all you need. I see a lot of Rory in that swing.

Actually, just saw the swing on Golf Central, holy crap it looks like Harmon era Tiger.

I put the swings up on YT. I'd slow it down for y'all, but not using my primary computer.

@nevets88 , awesome. Thanks dood.

One thing I noticed a bit is that his right heel is coming off the ground again before/during impact as opposed to being completely flat/rolling like it was before.

I'd love to see a true face on shot and see how far forward his hands are at impact on that driver.

Couple swings from earlier this year, looks pretty similar.

Just wait a few days, you'll see plenty of Tiger swings this week

I just hope for him that he found somebody who he can stick with and continue to work with for a long and successful partnership, similar to how he was with Butch Harmon (minus the ugly split at the end).

Golf Channel had a segment yesterday where Tiger was doing some kind of clinic at a range, presumably from Isleworth. Tiger pronounced he was fit and healthy, pain free, and had his club head speed back. Said he was hitting the shots now that he should be able to hit. He said something to the effect that he was trying to get himself back to just being more athletic and not over thinking things, like when he first came on tour.

FWIW and from my casual observation, his swing actually looked pretty good. Looked a little more upright to me, and also more fluid and more relaxed. Not nearly as violent as in the past, which imo is a very good thing.

This swing looks excellent.  He really looks like he's emphasizing on getting to his left side through impact....

Can't wait to see him play on the weekend.

I hate to say it, but it looks fluid, effortless, oh dear, fluid like young Rory.

I would love to read a technical annalysis from MvMac

Honestly guys it looks pretty similar, not much to analyze. He hasn't been working with Chris for that long and I don't think you're going to see any big picture changes like you saw when he went from Butch to Haney and Haney to Foley. There isn't any need for a big overhaul.

It's also a range swing and Tiger always does a good job with his sequencing on the range.

'12 US Open, only difference is the camera angle

From the Honda this year, closest camera angle I could find.
