i think jim furyk is a great player and appreciate what he brings to the game of golf. i am leaning toward making my swing look like his. i have watched great swings like tiger woods and adam scott but none of those are as interesting as furyks. so off to the local pro for some instruction.

JUST KIDDING !!!! i think furyk is amazing but wow, what a swing. the thing that amazes me is how he repeats it so perfectly each time. cheers to jim furyk!!!

in all honesty i try to model the swings of adam scott, luke donald, tiger woods, stuart appleby, and geoff ogilvy (sp).

yeah, he does that "C" shaped thing when he switches planes at the top. he's such a deadly short game player. awesome golfer,one of the most consistent guys out there. when i try a new swing, i never completely abandon my natural swing, i just sorta incorporate something new into it. if i try a totally new swing, i'm screwed and its very frustrating.

Worth noting: Jim Furyk has ranked as high as #2 in the world, despite ranking like 175th (just looked it up: eerie how I was right) in driving distance. There's something to be said about that.

And I say it whenever anyone tells me that I need more distance to play better. Yes, more distance will help, and I want it, but not at the expense of my putting and chipping practice!

    • Day 58: night putting session for about an hour. Started with lag putting and ended with putts inside 9’. I need to work on putts from 6-12’, but in a solid spot overall. 
    • Birdied a different #6 today (incidentally, also a par-5, but not the same one on which I previously birdied).  Here's the funny thing though:  it's the par-5 that caused me to post my "how do I avoid bogeys?" on par-5s recently.  So I guess I still haven't parred that hole.
    • Day 20, May 24.  Played 18 today, very poor ball driving.  One GIR, and it was a 4-wood from the rough.  Several other instances of hitting a green on a full swing (and at least one full swing motion -- a 50% UW) that wasn't for GIR.   Still shot an 87 and even had a birdie (chip-in).
    • Welcome to TST.  I spent a bit of time in the UK but I had to look up Wagon Wheels.  Don't think I ever saw them.  Had to Google to see.  Couple similar items in US but Google says they are different. 😁
    • Day 264 5-24 Worked on getting chest through and arms down infront of chest. Contact isn't great yet but on video looking better.
