Re: Whose swing do you emulate?

I have a slight Arnold Palmer'ish high helicopter finish that keeps me from pulling and coming across the ball with the driver. Lately I've gone to a Boo Weekly type of iron finish with a controlled abbreviated follow through. Thats helped me control my ball flight much more off of the irons.

Re: Whose swing do you emulate?

I got a hold of a Nick Faldo instructional dvd...his swing thoughts and movements make sense to me and have translated well...do I look like Nick? Not a chance, but his swing has been in my mind's eye lately...

Re: Whose swing do you emulate?

[quote=bump-n-run;407489]You gotta work on that four handicap then my friend because obvioulsy it isn't the swing's fault...

Ha ha ... just reading this when the thread updated.

Swing is only ~50% of the game My putting stroke is horrid and short game just isn't what it was and will limit me to no end until some point when I would have time enough to dedicate to it .... probably by then I won't have much of a swing. gotta love this game.

Yea those are the things that I like about his swing also. It seems like he keeps that same tempo for every shot he does. His putting stroke has that tempo also.

Re: Whose swing do you emulate?

I would be lying if I said my swing looks like any of the ladies on the tour, but I really like the swing that Christie Kerr has.
