Bobby Clampett
 
Clampett at his best?

6bmike 07-24-2005 09:34 PM

Quite a quill he pulled out from.

Legolas ain't got nothing on Bobby, aye Smeagol?

birdie_man 07-25-2005 12:23 AM

Holy CRAP.

That's nuts.

Are you sure that isn't Hogan with a perm???

Where'd u get that?

birdie_man 07-25-2005 12:24 AM

That might be even more extreme than Hogan...

Yoda posted a great Homer Kelley analysis of Clampett's swing on Brian's site.

annikan skywalker 07-25-2005 12:57 PM

BamBam,

Thanks...I have a copy of the unedited version that was submitted to the magazine...It's really COOL!!! I played 18 holes with Bobby and have had a few conversations with him...He's got great insight and stories of the game.

My post in Bambam's link above includes both the edited and the original version (beneath each photo).

annikan skywalker 07-25-2005 03:47 PM

Master Yoda,

Awesome...The guys will really appreciate it...I'll try to post more...I have down the plane sequences as well...I'll see if I can get the pictures smaller.

bambam 07-25-2005 03:55 PM

After reading the edited version on another site, seeing the unedited version was very cool. I'd love to see down the line shots.

Zoinks!!!!!

Posterboy for #2 Lag. Dr. Skywalker is that something you would try to teach? Big trigger delay? Advantage/Disadvantages? Or is that just something you got or ain't got?

I eat way too much BBQ and Fried Okra to look like that. But I bet I can lag a fork better than him!!!!!!!!!!

annikan skywalker 07-25-2005 10:24 PM

Bucket,
The secret is in the Top Arc/Straight line or in this case TopArc /Angled Line....to set up Lonitudinal Acceleration of the sweetspot plane and a wrist throw trigger type and snap release...And yes , I can drag like this ...I'm still waitin for you in the Creek...learn to drag/lag all your silverware...right forearm tracing done best with a knife!!!

annikan skywalker 07-25-2005 10:53 PM

Notice the "Slightly Closed Stance Line as recommended by the 3rd Editon for a Full Pivot Stroke Pattern in Chapter 12-4-0!! #4 Power accumulator - Left Arm Parallel to the hips and knees and the Delivery Line( 4th edition, 2-J-3-D). Check out Right Elbow Location to Right Hip!!! Personally, I think camera is slightly out of position

I plan to get the full immersion in the Creek soon . . . barring child #2. Do Top Arc and Straight Line 10-23-C and Top Arc and Angled Line require a Backstroke that is completed at End vs. Top? Also, is the Longitudinal Acceleration like drawing an arrow form a quiver horizontally and then getting the right shoulder going down plane via tilt?

What kinda Q do y'all eat down east?

birdie_man 07-26-2005 12:59 AM

Another great picture man...the DTL (down the line) view

Again, looks like The Hawk.

Love it...that's the way to do it if you ask me. If he had a similar clubface control technique to Hogan then man...he basically is Hogan.

I absolutely love the hands to chest relationship here

THIS is "keeping the spoke straight" - the hands and chest moving through together - "connection" - a "synchronized" motion.

Great photo of a great motion - Thanks annikan

annikan skywalker 07-26-2005 02:11 PM

wanole...my friend 8)

Just using the language of TGM...

Read 10-19-C, 10-23-C/D, 10-20-E, 4-D-0

Perhaps that might explain better!

Cheers!

PS The Silverware comment was intentionally for the Bucket!!! :lol:

Well said Skywalker. I am a huge fan of 7-23. Homer was a wise man.

annikan skywalker 07-26-2005 10:00 PM

It's gonna happen really soon!!!! Stay tuned!!!!

Trigger Delay
 
Per 10-20-E WRIST THROW Here the Right Hand remains palm up to the Plane during the Uncocking of the Left Wrist to produce a Sequenced Release per 2-G and 4-D-0. Especially compatible with Swinging.

Interesting that his Right Elbow seems to be in more a 10-3-A PUNCH position. A "down-and-at-the-side" position. I would have expected more of a 10-3-B position - a more "down-and-in-the-front" Elbow Position.

He wouldn't necessarily have Maximum Trigger Delay in #1 but would in #2 right? Since the elbow doesn't look like it would pass the line of site.

Could this be Hitting? Or is it Swinging from Punch Elbow?

6bmike 07-27-2005 12:16 AM

And still he hasn't rotated his shoulders. Most of us would be looking deep down the fairway by now. :D - Well the old days, anyway




btw- I got the bench- i want the guid

Jimmy 08-04-2005 02:23 AM

Anyone have any video clips of Clampett's swing that they could post? :)

densikat 08-05-2005 06:42 AM

Post removed, really cant be bothered arguing

brianmanzella 08-05-2005 10:58 AM

What a joke....

Ahahahahhahahahahahahahaha.

Ahahahahhahahahha.

Ahahahahahhahaha.

annikan skywalker 08-06-2005 08:34 AM

Yeah, I agree.... what a joke...Clampett as a Freshman at BYU was one of the best ball stikers in the world...not to mention one of the best players....It was all that "lag pressure" that allowed a liittle guy to be the longest player pound per pound in his era!!!

Can someone up with Bobby's stats during this period (late 70's early 80's)....I use to be a member of "PGA TOUR PARTNERS" during the mid-90's and the driving stat on Bobby (Received stats cards on tour players from the TOUR PARTNERS) was average driving distance with something like 256 yds (it was a weak power stat like Pavin).....I was pretty disappointed seeing that stat....I wasn't a golf fan during the late 70s and early 80s but would be interested in reading articles on Bobby's accomplishments during this period (late 70s and early 80s).

DG

1980 266.6
1981 265
1982 261.3
1983 257.6
1984 259
1985 263.1


As for the pound for pound, he may, may, like he is current 171 lbs, don't know what he was in 80, be in the top 10, but he was by no way the number 1. Chi Chi at a 130 was averaging over 250 and he was no college kid...

annikan skywalker 08-06-2005 02:14 PM

Again...I am wrong...

You guys are good!!! ....With the Stats and Critiques

But remember ...those "stats" are with the old ball and persimmon woods....

BTW .... Just curious any of you guys played with Clampett?

..... I HAVE!!!

drewitgolf 08-06-2005 02:53 PM

He was no Jed Clampett
 
I played in back of him in a tournament back in 1987. He would take the club to the Top of his swing and appear to hold it there for a few seconds before Start Down. Kind of strange I thought at the time. I remember he had a white staff bag endorsed with a Nestles (chocolate) logo on the side of his bag. His hosels rotated arround his sweet spot :lol: .

Martee 08-06-2005 03:03 PM

I followed him for 18 grueling holes in 82 at the Open. After the day before seeing only a few holes and his commanding lead to the next day was painful.

John Allan May did an article on him and followed it up with a series on The Golfing Machine, he had talked with Mr. Kelley a number of times. The article were good, show a comparison of others and TGM, different names, but same type of techniques advocated by the lesser knowns.

That is where and when I got my first copy of TGM...

Regarding the Stats, BC was not a leader in any of the areas, that was a surprise to me, I thought he would have been in the top 10 in most, he wasn't. Guess only seeing him a few times wasn't as representative as I thought of his game. Still he had potential.....

annikan skywalker 08-06-2005 04:42 PM

When I played with Bobby...he used both hitting and swinging

...and yes Bobby was just a twitchin & adjustin...

Looked like a machine...

.Played like a player...

He didn't share much info but the facts are the facts ...I DID play with him !!!... He bought my lunch .... Talked about the Lord.....I owe him for that!!!

Too bad I couldn't putt or chip worth a durn....woulda , coulda , shoulda...BUT DIDN"T

Since I don't know the book....What am I doing here?


v

I showed you mine........Now let's see yours!!!!

BTW ...Med Low cut ....Window 4 ...oh yeah that's the MORAD Stuff ....

I forgot for just a moment.... You see ...I'm not real bright as you've gathered from my previous posts...you are always so quick to remind me of my ignorance..

Thank you once again...

I am wearing a bullet proof vest....no head shots ...Please!!!

That's UNFAIR!!!

annikan skywalker 08-06-2005 05:26 PM

Yup!!!!

You're right again.....

Scared to show yours....

Or are you really a 12 HNCP posing as an expert!!!

You see..it's one thing to know the book...it's another to be able to do it!!!!

Momma says I cannot play anymore!!!

Happy Golfing!

DG,

I removed your tagged posts.
I've had a busy weekend and somehow missed the exchange here, so keep posting...civily please. :wink:

JohnThomas1 08-07-2005 08:35 AM

I think Annikan deserves a bit of consideration here to. He hasn't had the chance to see that posts have been deleted and he is left looking worse than he might be with hanging posts and a condescending categorization. I have never seen him involved in any flaming at all in here unless i am vastly mistaken. The ability to edit is close to abused by some.

JohnThomas1 08-07-2005 08:37 AM

And i better clarify that's not you i refer to Bagger. I think you do a wonderful job.

If Annikan would like a little cleanup, I'm happy to oblige. My interest is keeping the subject on track.
