Note how much secondary axis tilt he has at impact. I think that he needs that much secondary axis tilt to stay in balance - considering the force of forward momentum of his arms/clubshaft that are swinging towards the target.

The other other way at looking at this is that he is managing his low point for the shot at hand. The ball forward of low point, his head back in an effort to launch a sky high ball for extreme distance. An artificial uphill type shot. The ball struck on the upswing, the ball teed high and inside the base of the plane. Hes probably is trying to minimize spin with a low lofted club.

This is a special procedure as per Yodas post #16 , a compensated swing, as described by Homer.

What sort of machine would this make for? In my opinion one that was designed to hit the ball on the upswing, at red lined rpms, with a wobble at the top and the bottom. A special purposes machine subject to a lot of strain , breakdowns , inconsistency etc. More of a dragster than a Mercedes. When it doesnt blow up or crash its fast and long for sure.

By the way, Im no doctor but would not recommend that you set your machine up like this if you have a bad back, Jeff.
