Data on those swings:

Brooks-Koepka-winner-of-the-US-Open-2017

 

I've copied over the driver ones for convenience, but there's also 6-iron vids and Trackman data at the link. Good stuff, @nevets88

I'm working on the steep to shallow transition (as you may know from my swing thread), and the driver DTL really shows him doing that. Right as he gets to the top, his club really whips back and around him- no steepness at A5 for him!  There's a point in there around A5 where the club looks even too shallow to my eye. I'm sure he'll be working on that! :-D

I'm also trying to make sure my left wrist doesn't cup- yah, no cupping here on this driver swing.

He's actually super shallow at 4, it's almost parallel (pointing wayyyy outside the ball) for goodness sake and then it's steeper on the way down, relatively, but it's pointing at the ball or outside at 5 I think. So technically he's going from shallow to steep on the way down, but he's so shallow from the top.

I'm just looking at his numbers and thinking (learning) what these numbers translated to. Am I right to think that this swing resulted in a pull draw?

    • Day 233 4-9 flow drill while focusing on better hip/chest rotation. Used mirror. 
    • Comment:  Huh, I practiced regularly until 1/31, got busy in Feb-Mar (as I knew I would), and got reinspired today.  I have done some intermittent practice in the past two months, but let's get back on the daily practice wagon. Day 1, April 9 2026.  I worked on some pelvis turn limiting drills, doing one for several iterations before context switching to hit a few balls slowly (trying to retain that feeling), and repeating.
    • I’m thinking maybe Jason Day read my post. He’s sitting a -3 two off Rory and Burns.
    • Is it only the weekend broadcasts that have a low commercial count?  I feel like it has been a long while since I last watched a Thursday of the Masters, so maybe my recollection is off.  I feel today has a lot more than four minutes per hour of commercials, and far fewer of the fun stories they tell during the Sunday broadcast. 
    • I mean, I do slide my hips like 7 inches towards the target before impact. PGA Tour average is like 3 inches. I’m not Scottie Scheffler who can get away with it. 🤣 He slides a ton.  For me, I have to feel like I basically just turn. Though, I’m probably over exaggerating a bit with that one video because I’m really trying to push off with the left leg which sends the hip backwards. Ideally, I would be able to get my weight over to the outside of my left foot at impact and into the finish. It’s probably OK that I can slide about 7 inches as long as it’s like only three by impact.
