Snead Toski Observations
Per Yoda's request, my impressions of the video.

What jumped right out at me was the impressive
sound of compression Snead was creating.

WHOMP WHOMP WHOMP

And that was with a pitching wedge with the petal
nowhere close to the metal.


Next was Snead saying he set up with an open clubface,
and kept his hands ahead of the clubhead through impact.
Got LAG?

The third thing that struck me was Snead saying multiple
times about returning the club to near- address postion
through impact. PLANE.....

The fourth most striking impression was Snead's emphasis
on letting the ball get in the way of a good swing. His action is
the epitome of smooth unhurried acceleration.
There is certainly nothing dainty or hurried in Snead's
motiion. Precise, deliberate, and heavy.

I look forward to hearing more from y'all.
