Nick Price Driver Swing Analysis
Published June 21st, 2008 in Nick Price, Swing Tips, swing analysis.
I remember seeing Nick Price for the first time on TV, his hair used to stick up all the time a lot more than most other tour pros. Anyways, I have always been a big fan of Nick Price since the 90s, let’s look at how his swing is.
Btw, he’s a student of David Leadbetter, so he swings on the yellow plane. (We will have to term the yellow plane swingers as 90s swingers. I also have been guilty of practicing the yellow plane for about 10 years of my life but that’s the 90s, let’s focus on the true swing plane here)
At halfway back, Nick does the perfect match with the yellow plane. I’d rather see him more outside near the red plane.
At the top, Nick does get back on to the plane.
Surprisingly, Nick does come back to the yellow plane before impact. This is actually harder to do and its only because Nick’s really good at it. Most tour pros would come down the red plane line.
At impact, Nick is somewhat neat the red plane.
Now, a lot of pro golfers and teachers still rely on the 2-plane swing, which is combination of the yellow and the red plane. This is too confusing and there’s too many moving parts.
If you want to swing on 1-plane swing like Tiger or Moe Norman, you will need to concentrate on getting your clubhead on one plane only.
