Camilo Villegas Iron Swing Analysis!

Monday, September 8th, 2008

Camil Villegas has one of the simplest swings as he never swings beyond 3/4 point and accelerates nicely through the ball while keeping his rhythm super-smooth.

Today we will analyze Camilo’s iron swing and just see how he is able to come up with wins such as the BMW Championships where he beat the top players of the world including Vijay Singh, Phil Mickelson, Anthony Kim, and others.

At takeaway, you can clearly tell that Camil’s clubface is shut (or closed). But this isn’t too big a problem as long as he gets it open at the top of his swing.

end of the line divx

At half-way, you can tell that Camilo has nicely rotated his forearms so the clubface is square in relation to his swing plane. He’s slightly inside the plane but that’s not a big deal here.

At the top of his swing, Camilo looks very poised and everything stretched out nicely. Note that his hands and club are not actually back on-plane, a perfect backswing.

At impact, Camilo dips his head down a little (which most players do) but his impact is perfect.

After impact, Camilo looks pretty good. cats prednisone stroke

At finish, Camilo does a great job of standing up straight.

Overall, I am impressed with this young Camilo’s swing as he never over-swings yet his retains his smooth rhythm.

What’s impressive is that this young man is capable of hitting every shot in the bag although he has a tendency to miss his drives to the right. (probably due to his short backswing when he’s tempo gets too quick) But with a swing like this, Camilo will never miss left, mostly to the right.

David Duval Swing Analysis!

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

If you are new to golf, you’ve probably never heard of David Duval. But for me, he’s the #1 or #2 golfer of all-time in the 90s.

foot fist way the download

michael clayton online

For whatever reason that David Duval has not been winning again, let’s take a look at his swing from Doral in 1997 to see what made him “tick”. toprol xl cause heart block

One thing I really like about David Duval is the way he finishes his swing with his back straight. This is really good for painless-back golf.

On the takeaway, David Duval looks pretty good.

At top of his swing, David is in perfect plane.

Between his backswing and downswing, you can clearly tell that David is really transferring his weight back to the left.

Also notice that his head is actually turning towards the target at impact. David Duval is the only other professional golfer I know who lets his head move freely during impact other than Annika Sorenstam.

I believe this head move can actually help the golfer hit the ball better if done right. But if you simply move your head at impact, it will probably make you chop the ball more times than not. To do it right, try following the golf ball as it takes off.

Watch David Duval’s wonderful wind-up finish. He’s almost wind-up too much but you get the idea here.

chill online Hopefully David Duval does recover from his long-term winning draught. I have seen signs of him playing better lately at the British Open where he finishes Top 10 for the first 2 days. Time will tell whether David Duval is able to come back to competitive golf or not but he’s still a British Open champ.

Chez Reavie Driver Swing Analysis!

Chez Reavie Driver Swing Analysis!

Here’s a driver swing analysis of today’s Canadian Open winner, Chez Reavie.

At address, Chez really stands tall, almost falling backwards but this is preferable way to swing than “crouching” over the ball.

At takeaway, Chez gets a little too inside but not too bad.

Chez gets really flat at this point due to his upright address but this is fine.

At the top, Chez gets back on-plane as seen here.

Half-way down, you can tell, Chez is in great position to hit the ball with the club inside the plane. miscarriage clomid pcos

Nick Faldo Downhill Iron Swing Analysis

Monday, July 14th, 2008

Nick Faldo Downhill Iron Swing Analysis

For most of 90s, my two favorite golfers were Nick Faldo and Greg Norman. They always seemed to win tournaments more than others during that time and also shared number one and two of the world back and forth.

Although Nick Faldo may be a sportscaster right now, he may be the best pro golfer to be a sportscaster.

You look at some of the other guys but no one else has an extensive resume like the Masters winner Nick Faldo.

I’ve even bought every book he wrote and although they were all too technical and confusing for most hackers, Nick is really good at details of the golf swing.

free closing the ring movie download

Let’s take a look at his downhill iron swing here.

free super troopers movie download

For the downhill iron shot, Nick Faldo sets up with his weight favoring his right and his ball about center of his stance to make up for the hill.

At takeaway, Nick sets his wrists slightly early but looks very good.

At top of Nick’s swing, he has a perfect 90 degree angle between the arm and the club while not swinging more than 3/4 of his full backswing.

On half-way down, notice the 90 degree of lag Nick has. A lot of tour pros go beyond the 90 degrees which is not necessary and Nick proves the point here. Too much lag can actually produce a smaller swing arc.

At impact, Nick looks really good. fermenting ephedra soma

After impact, Nick chases down the slope with his arms, fully releasing his club.

At finish, Nick looks very good, standing super tall.

Nick Faldo has one of the best swings in golf with one of the best rhythms to go with it.

If he kept playing competitively, he would have won couple more majors but I am surprised he decided to retire from competitive golf.

Eric Axley Driver Swing Analysis

Eric Axley Driver Swing Analysis

out of time divx movie online

Eric Axley is one of those lefty PGA tour pros who has a great potential and it looks like he’s tied for the lead at this week’s John Deer Classic.

Let’s take a look at his swing.

At takeaway, Eric gets very inside, which might be a problem if he doesn’t re-route his club but he does on the next position. hgh creram clomid ovulation day

At top of his swing, Eric gets back on perfect plane.

At impact, Eric looks pretty good, maybe his head dips a little too much and his left foot could be down a little more.

After impact, Eric is in really good position with his hands and club outside the plane, meaning he swung inside-out.

timber falls dvdrip download

Finish looks okay, he could stand up little straighter.

In conclusion, Eric Axley has a pretty good swing but could be improved a lot more. He swings a little too much inside-out as seen on his takeaway and followthrough. I imagine his misses are to his left under a lot of pressure.

He probably won win this week but watch out for this young man in the future.

Woody Austin Iron Swing Analysis

Woody Austin is one of those players I like because of his personality, not his swing. He cracks me up with some of the things he has achieved free man on fire movie download .

Let’s look at his swing. His setup looks pretty good.

Takeaway looks good too. Woody doesn’t transfer much weight to the right but that’s okay. (I don’t either because I end up swaying) cipro ear cats

At half-way down, take a look at how well Woody has transferred his weight to the left. This reminds me of Ben Hogan.

At impact, notice how far his hips have transferred and how straight his left arm and the club is.

Charlie Wi Driver Swing Analysis

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

Charlie Wi is one of the Korean golfers who have been coming up in the last couple years. I guess he is using Stack and Tilt swing now but let’s take a look.

To me, Stack and Tilt isn’t a new way of swinging, it’s simply teachers re-making golf swing.

At takeaway, Charlie gets way too inside. Look at his hands, it’s almost inside his body.

At half-way up, Charlie looks pretty good.

At half-way down, Charlie looks really good and also standing VERY TALL.

Fred Funk Driver Swing Analysis

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

For many years, Fred Funk has always been one of the straightest drivers on the PGA Tour and his swing has never changed. (probably because of that)

Let’s look at what makes his swing “tick”.

At setup, Fred looks pretty good. Notice that his sets with his ball outside the ball. Kinda unusual but some pros do this to hit inside-out.

At takeaway, Fred is doing pretty good, maybe slightly inside the plane. (Plane is a little off here because the camera angle is slightly closed)

At half-way, Fred looks pretty good.

At top of Fred’s swing, his in perfect plane except that his clubface is really shut. This isn’t great for hooking the ball but let’s find out how he manages to hit the ball straight with this backswing.

At half-way down, Fred is lookin’ good.

At impact, notice how much his hips have turned (maybe 45 degrees) and his shoulders.

Fred must really drive his hips in order to hit the ball straight but he hits straight alrighty.

After impact, Fred is in good shpae.

Fred’s swing requires a lot of hand-eye coordination and lots of lower body movement to hit it well. Fred might need a hip surgery when he gets older due to the fact he must really drive his hips.

Don’t swing like Fred if you want to play golf for a long time but Fred is still one of the straightest drivers on the tour.

Robert Allenby Driver Swing Analysis

Robert Allenby is one of those guys who don’t win often but ALWAYS finishes up at Top 10 at most PGA tournaments.

Let’s look at the Aussie’s swing.

At address, Robert looks pretty good with a textbook setup.

At takeaway, Robert is in perfect plane.

At half-way, Robert goes slightly upright but it’s okay.

At top os Robert’s swing, he is slightly upright again but it’s acceptable.

Half-way down, Robert is poised nicely for an inside-out hit.

At impact, Robert looks perfect. I love this position where hips and shoulders are just slightly open while the left arm and the club are very straight with the right elbow bent slightly. viagra 9.99

After impact, Robert’s club is on perfect plane, standing very tall. All great stuff, no wonder this guy’s always on the leaderboard.

Finish looks great. Now, Robert Allenby’s swing really reminds me of Stuart Appleby’s swing. Is that because they are both Aussies and the fact that both of their last names end in “by”?

Lol… we never know but Robert Allenby must be a distant cousin of Stuart Appleby for sheezy.
