Forget all the measurements and online tools. It's January. Take one of your clubs and get it re-gripped to a larger grip. Go to the driving range and see how you like it.

Ok. I'm not an expert, but I've been spending a lot of time the past two months going through Shawn Clement's videos. Since they represent my new target swing, I have three comments relative to what I learned in those videos. 1. Grip. The thumb on your right hand is right on top of the club. More like a putting grip. I don't see how you can get the club to rest in the crook of your right index finger when you get to the top of your backswing so the stability of the club on the downswing, and the available power, may come into question. Check out Shawn's videos on the grip. 2. Your head is in front of the ball rather than behind it so I don't really see a tilt. You seem pretty upright to me. 3. Hard to tell in the video and i tried to stop it a few times to see for sure, but I think you're not giving full extension toward the hole after hitting the ball. Shawn's videos are amazing. he has about 100 of them on his site. Check out a few of them.

The last time I played was in 1983. I shot a 93.

Depends what you want to include in the characterization. Since both were great golfers, I have to vote for the one that's not a putz.

Used to be a Technology Department Manager for a major financial institution. Worked in the field for 39 years 11 months and 21 years 5 for my last firm. After a year fighting lymphoma, successfully so far, I was riffed with an offer that I couldn't refuse. So being 62 years of age, and having had enough, I don't now do anything for a living.
