Ha ha, this is where I got it from, probably the guy who took the video.

:offtopic:

FB used to have a straight up url of the video in its page source, you could easily download the video just by opening the vid url. Now, the whole url is encoded. If anyone knows of a way around this (w/o doing any fancy perl/sed/awk tricks), let me know!

Swing looks pretty good.  Not too much difference from the Foley swing but his hands are certainly higher at the top and it "looks like" he is hinging his wrists later in the back swing to allow, I guess, the back swing to be wider / longer.  That's what it looks like but I could be wrong plus, the camera angle isn't the greatest.

Maybe it is the clothes, but he looks like he's dropped some weight.

He said in the presser he lost weight due to a flu or bug or something. The guy is always getting sick. The pants are not his usual MO - baggy-ish. Maybe he lost a bet with Vonn. :-)

Looks pretty similar with a higher left arm and slightly longer swing. Arms also seem less deep at A2-3 which I think is a good thing. Almost a hybrid between the Foley and Harmon swings. Look forward to seeing it with better camera angles ;-)

Cadillac Championship on the left from last year, not exact camera angles. Slightly wider stance, some right foot flare, longer arm swing, less "handle dragging" on the downswing.

    • Day 5: did a stack session. Did some slow swings between sets, working on hands down. 
    • So, I might have to get out of the C-Taper golf shaft. I have an older Mizuno with a KBS Tour shaft in. I was messing around with closing my eyes and feeling where the weight of the club is being felt at. The C-Taper was all in my fingers. I didn't feel much of anything of the club head or shaft of the club. It felt super heavy in my hands. The KBS Tour I could feel a weight further away from my hands, out in space.  The Mizuno weights 2 grams more, but is about 2-3 swing weights lighter than my current irons.  So, yea. I am thinking I might sense the club better with maybe a less stout golf shaft and maybe a lighter swing weight. Probably more to do with the golf shaft. I am thinking the feeling of the weight out in space is more of the shaft loading more easily. 
    • Day 25 (2 Apr 26) - Worked on green side chips at the course before helping with the school golf tournament today.  Worked on low flighted spinners to get solid hop and stops.  
    • Day 227 4-2 Chest and hip turn with flow drill. Trying to get a rhythm to the hip movement/less segmented feeling. 
    • A bit back at it tonight. I just wanted to add in the feel of a softer left arm through out the backswing. This helps me hinge the club. I make sure I am not bending it a ton, but not straightening it. It helps feel like I can keep the club in front of me more and lift the club up sooner.
