    Wider stance, less violent swing. Interesting.

    Yeah, I got it as a gift a couple years ago. They are good. Very smart. Give you video of your swing, analyze it, give you tips and drills.

    They also put on a very hard sell for clubs.

    Previous post was a goof post, stir the pot a little, but I started thinking. Less violent swing....say he gets himself in contention and sprays a shot. Needs par to win and is sitting in 6 inch rough. I don't know if he's smart enough upstairs to lay off. I see him trying to muscle one up there and ripping himself up again.

    Most guys lay up, hope to get the next one close and 1 putt par. I can't see him ever doing that. Even "old man" Tiger

    2 minutes into this press conference it sounds like he knows he can't do certain things physically anymore that he used to be able to do. Both about how long he hits it and how Sean Foley wanted him to do things with his swing that he couldn't physically couldn't do.

    Tiger used to keep his head so still when hitting driver.. Now it seems that upon releasing from the top of his swing he dips his head and the rest of his upper body. I've noticed this the past few years. Maybe it's his back causing this not sure but his hip transition used to be so smooth.

    Pretty good interview. Sounds pretty realistic. Says the new swing is an old swing. Less violence, not as hard on his body but the ball is coming off the face faster.

    Needs to see this week where his misses are (channeling Haney), and how long it takes him to correct the misses.

    Good stuff

    Have to be encouraged with tiger, even if his short game was putrid. Long game looks great.

    Funny to see him commentating.

    "are we going to see you in Hawaii."

    That's not fair. Spieth is the new Tiger
    Spieth is real good and real young. Rory is still a beast when he is playing well. Spieth seems to be more consistent but needs to start winning some majors.

    Oh gotcha. Spieth has a chance to be pretty remarkable.

    I have a feeling Speith is going to win a major or two.
