Here is Jamie Sadlowski

OK Ill bite.

Here is what I think. You keep showing pictures of long drive guys and maintaining that their tilt should represent the norm for a tournament golfers drive technique. I disagree on behalf of anyone who has to hit a second shot. Keep yourself centered and balanced even for the driver*

* unless you have ingrained a compensated but still reliable technique. In the old days many a 9 degree persimmon driver required or even mandated a slight tilt, unbeknownst to the golfer but learned , ingrained over time by the experts.
