Interesting webpage, especially the 1969 golf swing. Damn! I’d break clean in half if I tried to swing like that 
. Read the highlights page too. Note to self: never play Newman for money. —

- Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Bruce Are these pics sequential for a single shot? Looks like right foot moves a lot from set-up to impact. My wife snapped them with a basic camera so they must each from separate swings. We’ve never owned a movie camera or anything.

Response:
It’s hard to discuss the swing in text. All I can say is to stick with fundamentals, regardless of your skill level. Don’t fall for those band-aids or tips-of-the-week but, instead, work on your grip, posture, alignment, swing plane and balance. Keep it simple; the fewer moving parts, the better! Bruce Why is it that good players * always * say this and high handicappers never listen to this?
Because high handicappers tried this last week and it didn’t work, at least on the front 9 before trying something else instead.

*laughing* I have hundreds of old balls and would whck them into the woods in the winter and pick them up in the spring…as many as I could find, at least. Oh, the good old days. Bruce Bruce E.

Bruce, I’d be a happy golfer with your swing. Any swing thoughts you’d like to share? Besides swing thoughts while actually playing, can you describe briefly what you consider keys to a good golf swing? Steve

Why is it that good players * always * say this and high handicappers never listen to this? Grip, posture, alignment, swing plane, balance, ( and ball position). 90% of the whole deal right there. The remaining 10% just happens. It’ll put Golf Tips magazine out of business.

To be fair to some tips, a lot of them are in fact about grip, posture, alignment, swing plane and balance. It’s just that a lot of them are given in isolation, and many golfers don’t understand the big picture that each tip is just a small part of. — Cheers Colin Wilson RSG Roll Call: http://rec-sport-golf.com/members/?rollcall=wilsonc Trentham Golf Club: http://www.trenthamgolf.com
