There seem to be a least two styles of Finishes.

1. The Aggressive Finishers-- Greg Norman, Arnold Palmer, Rory Sabbatini, Phil Mickelson, etc, where the club is really moving into the Finish, and often rebounds off the left shoulder.

2. The Smooth Finishers-- Ernie Els, Vijay Singh, Luke Donald, Geoff Ogilvy, etc., where the club just kind of GLIDES to the Finish, and there is no rebound.

Both styles can strike the ball very long. What you think causes this difference?
There are some... like Tiger Woods that can do either. Many, however, of these players seem to be only one way on this. What do you think?

Tour players can manufacture any type of finish that they deem appropriate at the time.

Bearing in mind that the ball is long gone, most finishes are posed for effect, I suspect, rather than reflections of what preceded them.
