  1. This is a gif that made me say that.........im not sure http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6tsprOwUN1qf09yvo1_400.gif
  2. If you watch very carefully, Silva tripped Sonned while he slipped the backfist. His subtle counterattacks are really amazing to watch. If you ever get a chance watch the switch he hit on Nate Marquart.
  3. Thats funny, I was watching a clip today of Grant following around Charles Howell.
  4. Looks good beachcomber, I think this is another thread, but what are you working on in your swing?
  5. Ok, I kind of knew about that, but with my gf, its hard to direct her around "when the whole fu&^%ng thing is stupid". I will do a better job in all honesty, I will get a betterdownthe line next weekend. What is better to shoot, a driver or iron?
  6. I think that swing looks pretty good. Maybe some posture corrections, but I dont even know about that.
  7. I do feel kind of weird in my new setup, I will give that a try.
  8. Ok, thanks Beachcomber.
  9. Well, I think the obviousis, you stand too close to the ball. I think this is why you drag it inside and make a loop over the top. Maybe if you bent over more and stood away from the ball, and got the club coming more upright on the way back. I am no pro and somone like iicas's advice is.
  10. A driver from today, my ball flight has become lower with the more rotary swing.
  11. Again, no pro here, but I bet if you stopped your arm swing when your body swing stopped, you would be more consistent.
  12. Last fight Chael was able to set up his takedowns by controlling the distance and boxing. I dont see that again happening, so will that compromise is takedowns if hes already losing the strikiing battle.
  13. Thanks, good find iacas. Good thing he can scramble, I remember years ago he was working with Harmon. Apparently it used to be worse, I just watched some more, even he has done a decent job of getting the head back it impact. Do you guys think V.J. has too many moving parts, or his swing is too loose?
  14. Yeah, I didnt notice that, thats a real good, and necessary compensation move. Would love to see to what frederick jakobson SP? looks like.
  15. When we rolled, it was before his fight with trigg, which should date me, and I think he was only a blue, which I was. It was however a huge learning experience, first just realizing that their was a man who could put me on my back like a baby. Even given my scary regional level high school wrestling lol. Seriously, he cant be taken down or swept by anyone near his size. Have you all noticed a different look in Andersons eyes when he is a little apprehensive of his opponent. Notice Hendo, Franklin 1, or especially Belfort, he really turns focused and kind of animal like.
  16. I was looking at Anthony Kims swing, it looks like he has a fairly significant head move off the ball. Maybe that is another reason for his inconsistency.
  17. I read a credible, IMO, article by an olympic coach who says that the best cookie cutter breakfast he has ever put his athletes on is meat and nuts, and possibly dried fruit. Once our glycogen stores are full we will only use what we need. So, starches have a better place after our workout, or strenous activity to refill those stores. So lunch is a good time for rice or sweet potatoes along with vegtables, which can really be eaten at any time, and dinner would be a good time for a steak and salad, some protien and fat to slow its digestion and fruit or greek yougart as desert. While golfing, I think the trail mix, bananas and powerade 0 are the best choices. I really dont like any calorie containing beverage. And as APOCs avatar says, I dont know how to advise vegatarians
  18. Thanks for all of the recomendations, I think I made some changes taking into account everyones input, so I can get a real critique
  19. Yeah, GSP is a John Danahler Black Belt, I think black belt, and John is a balck out of Renzo Gracies, Renzo also has an affiliate named John Rallo, And that is how I got a day at Renzos. Gsp is like a natural ectomorph, who put on a ton of functional muscle, and his x-frame gives an illusion that hes bigger than he is. I also think it is a physical impossibility for GSp to gain fat. Clean or not, the man a superior athlete. I should also say it was more of gsp using me as a grappling dummy, than anything resembling a competive roll, my main concern was not doing something stupid and accidently hurting his knee or something. An accident would be my only path to hurting him.
  20. ok cool
  21. That swing is really nice, what is your disaster shot?
  22. I am now, i cant believe it felt so comfortable.
  23. Does anyone have a swing thought regarding my getting further away from the ball, I cant tell how fars too far.
  24. So everybody is on board with the idea that its way too narrow. think I am to, I cant believe how flawed my setup is.
