besides the obvious mental aspect and can-do attitude, what physical/tech aspects can 2 legged player learn from his swing?

That's awesome!!

You can clearly see the "run up" and "jump".

Is that St. Andrews?

Looks like he almost drove that green!

hello natep, can you define "run up" and "jump" so i can better appreciate what you guys are talking about in your secret society lingo?

i am not a science guy per se, but i think his swing possibly offers a lot for those interested in swing mechanics to verify and validate their own theories,,,kinda like a control or a different arm in an experiment.

in one place, they said his drive was 280. very sick individual imo
