The Tube: Indulge in the best slow motion golf videos on the web

July 4, 2010

I’m finally investing some time to properly analyze my golf swing in an attempt to correct some fundamental swing flaws. After seeing my swing on video a few times now, I reckon I’ll need to invest a lot of time! I did come away from the range today with renewed optimism, having successfully applied a [...]

The Tube: Slammin’ Sammy Snead

January 23, 2010

EHM3ST72VA59 I recently read an article on Sam Snead over at ‘Armchair Golf Blog’, which prompted me to go in search of his swing on YouTube. I’m glad I did because I found this fantastic 5 min ’swing collection’.

The Tube: Ben Hogan…if you don’t mind

December 28, 2009

Tiger Woods apparently wants to “own” his golf swing like Moe Norman and Ben Hogan owned theirs.
Check out Hogan’s swing in these short clips. A great reminder about starting the downswing with the legs and clearing the hips…….which I’ll forget before the next round!
There’s also a good bio of Hogan at Wikipedia if you want [...]

The Tube: Do you know Moe Norman?

December 20, 2009

EHM3ST72VA59Check out this ESPN video clip about Moe Norman, described by Sam Snead “as the greatest ever striker of the ball”. I’d heard of Moe Norman, but never really understood what all the fuss was about, so I enjoyed watching this.
