I "okayed" this post only so we can make fun of it once again.

Somax is easily the biggest joke in golf.

#tigerwoods has connected with only 45% of his fairways this year, ranking him #213 in driver accuracy. 

This is ignoring the fact that his driving accuracy has increased each tournament he has played in, going from 30% to 46% to 59%. 

His strokes gained off the tee is -.147, which puts him in 146th in that category, ahead of Phil Mickelson who has 4 top 10 finishes already this year. 

Tiger's average driving distance is also 29th at 306 yds, which is ahead of Dustin Johnson this year. 

He's doing fine.

You're giving these SOMAX jokers WAY too much credit, here, @klineka. Look at the Rory video. Look at their training aids. Etc. :-) They're a joke.

I can't believe someone made that video unironically.

Clearly Tiger is the superior golfer because he can still hit the ball even after increasing his spine angle 267%. Dumb robot Iron Byron can't even make contact at that point. Can it even putt? ;-)

I particularly like how in the video they show Palmer going from 3° to 12°.

Uhm, THAT IS 400%!!!!

But 267% is bad?

Obviously. Round numbers and all.

Here are some better tips that would certainly help Tiger, or even you (can't be any worse than SOMAX

  1. Flat load your feet
  2. Snap load your power package
  3. Amplify lag and drag pressure 
  4. #2 Power accumulator can't break down!
  5. Maximize centripetal force for limited pivotal resistance
  6. Pivot to produce multiple centers
  7. Use centripetal force on adjusted plane to create the two-line delivery path
  8. Use geometric lineal force
  9. Golfer needs physical muscular thrust and the geometry of a circle
  10. Divide into 24 components with 12 to 15 variations
