A look at my TrackMan influenced Swing Changes

[Brian Manzella]

This is from January 2010.

The camera angle is inside the target line and the Plane line.

But, you can see...

Wow. I can see why Damon said it looks smoother.

Nice work B-Man.

Good move. Looks like you could do that all day.

I think you're doing something different at impact, but I'd like to see if others notice it.

 

[Matt Bryda]

Brian,

It looks more like that 1988 double shift swing of yours on your youtube page.
Awesome!

Matt

 

[Kevin Shields]

Totally different motion. Im gonna put some new and improved Trackman swings up as well.

You should play a few section events this year.

 

[birdie_man]

Nice swing. Reminds me of Tom Watson.

 

[Matt 4-L]

Looking good for an old man! Post up some more swings.

 

[birdie_man]

Ya Brian...face on...

 

[Steve Khatib]

A lot better swing Brian.

If you move the cammera Charlie Rose could use your swing in his show also to S&T parallax.

 

[tennisdu]

Look pretty darn good, love the carry. By the way what changed in your swing since Trackman?

 

[niblick1]

Less of a lift at end of the backswing and more efficient/compact backswing?

How is distance compared with before?

Looks and sounds like very crisp contact. Doing anything different to control low point?

Any elements you intentionally eliminated from swing because it produced worse numbers than expected?

 

[Damon Lucas]

I'd like to the face on as well.

I suspect there is a little more float loading along with the carry.

Less lift in the backswing - as a result it looks flatter and maybe a little laid off. Are these contrary to your personal swing preferences, Brian?

Overall, very nice motion.

 

[Matt 4-L]

The less lift was the first thing I noticed. I mentioned the lift on his swing last time he posted at pebble and got drilled. I would really like to know what he did to eliminate it.

 

[Chip Putterman]

It's very reminiscent of Craig Stadler's swing.

 

[bcoak]

can you explain what you are feeling? Ball flight different? It is much smoother

 

[Kevin Shields]

It's very reminiscent of Craig Stadler's swing.

He'll love this comment.

 

[gmbtempe]

Interesting motion

So I have no idea if there is proper terminology for this but it looks like what Jim McLean would call a reverse slotted swing, the backswing is flatter followed by a slightly steeper transition.....opposed to a vertical lift and drop which is so popular among say tour players.

 

[mgranato]

Describing it with my VERY limited terminology, I'd say it looks SD going back and NHA going down and through.
