Back on topic - check this video out I never would have guessed he was a deep pitch snap releaser. Just look at those positions starting at :35 with his elbow past the right hip and leading the hands with the shaft well above horizontal, at :37 with his hands ahead of the ball(line of sight) and the shaft just a little below horizontal, and then impact at :39 with perfect alignments. What great camera work catching those 3 critical positions. This is about as good as it gets! He is 12 yards behind the PGA Tour Average in driving distance 277 vs. 289 T12 in % of drives that go 240 to 260 but to his credit t15 in ak-er-it . . . 5 from the bottom in ball speed 4 from the bottom in carry distance 106 clubhead speed . . . I know that he would stomp a mudhole in me as far as ball striking goes . . . BUT . . . I'm not convinced that this is the most "efficient" "powerful" swing model. Looks like he is moving back and hanging back to me . . . great player . . . but just sayin' . . . Way more dynamic ways to move the club . . . Verplank's club never encounters the pulley wheel . . . One club is getting drug and one club is getting THROWN . . . One pivot is live . . . one pivot is hanging back . . . One has hips going forward one had head tilting backward . . . Not saying that Verplank ain't an awesome player . . . just not sure his swing is the model . . Pictures tell a story here . . . can see why Doyle would like it though. __________________ Aloha Mr. Hand Behold my hands; reach hither thy hand Last edited by 12 piece bucket : 08-03-2011 at 03:53 PM. 12 piece bucket View Public Profile Send a private message to 12 piece bucket Find all posts by 12 piece bucket
