It is curious that you are posting in a "Golf" forum and referencing cricket. Now if this was a Cricket forum and I didn't know who Suchin Tedulkar was, well then I should be ashamed. But this is a golf forum and you were posting about top ten golfers and left off arguable the best there ever was as if no one knows who he is outside Jupiter, Florida. You are being astoundingly provincial. If you are a golfer anywhere in the World, you should know who Tiger Woods is.

Please stick to posting about golfers in this thread. Cricket is off topic.

Quoting you earlier "If you hadn't heard of Tiger Woods, even outside of the world of golf, you must have been living in a cave." .. I could reference you about living in a cave not knowing that about a top cricket player .. YOUR arrogance opened that can of worms.

I was going to add more, but since you continue to ignore the points made by others and continue to post off-topic stuff, I'm restricting you from the thread.

Should have known you were a bit of a fool when you left Arnold Palmer off your list of top influencers…

Amazing that even after a post that shows (and verifies) Cricket as the #2 sport in the world, Tiger still is the third most popular sports figure in the world.  And yet, there are people who will still argue that Woods is a non entity.  Facts mean nothing when it comes to some people's opinions.

Personally I think that golf is so unpopular on a global scale, coupled with Tigers popularity on that same scale shows an enormous amount of popularity and influence, more so than say Virat and Sachin who have such a larger population base of adoration.  Amazing the influence Tiger has, love him or hate him, people know him.

    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
