Could a swing analysis get any more non-descriptive?

First item on Golf Central

"Charlie Hoffman drives the ball so far and straight because he transfers his weight and rotates through it".............genius

Can you break 100 if you do not?

Theres worse, what about when theres somelike Butch Harmon who says, "hes got great rhythm thats why hes so powerful/accurate/consistent"

The problem is, we can't really tell if these guys are "dumbing it down" to their perceived audience, or simply don't know what they're talking about.

Today the Tiger analysis on "pre-game" with his driver swing that went left and his 2 iron swing that was a rope hook was beyond ridiculous. So the best way to determine mechanics is to use a swing where you are playing a specialty shot.

They don't know what they are talking about.

And from my experience, almost all method teachers are very ambiguous and then the golfing public just gets more confused. So IMO, even if they are 'dumbing it down', they are not doing the golfing public much good. There's ways to explain this stuff, without dumbing it down so it's so ambiguous and still get people to understand it.

Brandel is articulate. Many people confuse this with knowledge and intelligence.
