for once kostis didn't mess with jb's swing... textbook..did anyone notice that the clubhead didn't twist through impact just on an angle down through impact loved that shaft lean..160ydpw must be nice..hope he makes the masters this year off the money list
Let's hear it then Vandal. If it's not pure, then it's a swit. Otherwise it's a pure swing. There are a ton of switters on tour that get some pretty good distance. But not many that are in JB's league.
A swit can produce compression leakage and everyone is bound to have that happen, even the best of the swingers and hitters. But switters are particularly challenged with never experiencing the kind of distance and ball flight that each individual procedure has the potential to produce. So what is the primary procedure then? Is he driving, dragging, or both?
He's more of a switter than anything...i'm sure he uses active right arm thrust but he is not a text book hitter.
Reasons why below:
- His left arm turns to the plane very early
- His hands go pretty much to the end. Don't be "faked out" by how little wrist cock there is
- On the 16th tee on the CBS Swing Vision he executed a horizontal hinge. I watched for it specifically because he has the "look" of a hitter.
I say he's a hybrid....

I have no idea what he is doing Bagger; I'm way too much of a n00b to know what is what. All I know is that he does not look like a pure hitter as described here, there and other TGM sites. At first, he does. But look again. Closer. In slo-mo.

No problem, I'm just curious like everyone else. I haven't seen enough of his swing to know for certain.
Jim,
Does swivel, or plane shifts, or pivot action define hitting vs swinging? If not what...?
