I have recently been paying attention to the new Stack and Tilt method, more particularly, Aaron Baddeley's swing. I have always thought he had the best swing in golf, and could not believe he wasn't playing better on tour.

I just downloaded his old swing on VH1 and I still think his leadbetter style swing was darn good.

Personally, I think the Stack and Tilt is too complicated. If you watch Aarons swing now, his body positions do not match the photos in the golf digest article.

Pause it at the top and you will see that his weight is "stacked" and centered in the front view, not tilted over his front leg like in the picture of an article, which I have attached.

I have a video on VHS tape of my swing when I was about 16 with a four iron from a front view and my head never moves from address to the top to the finish. I don't know how I used to do it but I wish I did. One thing I know for sure: yes my weight and head never moved off the ball, but my weight stayed centered and swung to a balanced finish.

Which of his swings to you like best?
