Charles Howell

Any chance we could get an analysis of his swing? I am the same kind of build as him so i'v tried to use him as a model for my swing. Thanks!

His swing looks different.

 

[Mr Inconsistent]

He straightens his right leg at the top of his backswing I noticed, not exactly typical on tour.

Lets not forget that he is recovering from a bout of Leadbetter.

More Lead Poisoning

From what the TV announcers said yesterday, CHIII is back for another dose.

Man has got some lag - whew!!

If that is true...

....and I have no reason to believe it isn't, that means he has run back to David Leadbetter from Plummer/Bennent.

There was a quote in GolfWorld a while back where Howell said his leaving Leadbetter was "like leaving a girlfriend, seeing what was out there, not liking it, and then going back to the original girlfriend".

So obviously whatever he was getting wasn't as good as what he had!

Yeah but he was working with Mogg after leadbetter.

 

[ChrisSorenson]

The issue between Howell and Leadbetter was mainly about money...

NEWSFLASH!!!

You will never really be the BIG DOG (teacher) for long, if all you've got is one or two patterns.

But, since NONE of the POP teachers of the moment are not "MULTIPLE PATTERN/MUTIPLE STYLE/SCIENCE AND PRACTICAL APPLICATION BASED" guys (like me ), then they will just go back and forth like Hollywood stars who can date one supermodel today and another tommorrow.

They have it all set up perfectly for me (or someone like me).

Didn't Charles Howell go to Leadbetter constantly from the time he was 10 years old until a couple years ago. Seemed to work pretty well for him. He was also one of the best junior golfers of all time.

 

[blehnhard]

I believe that CHIII was a student at one time of George Klenhofer (sp?) who is an AI

 

[dumazz]

He played for Mike Holder (I think that's his name) who is a GSED at Oklahoma State.

I read that George Kelnhofer was Howell's instructor in his junior days. Mike Holder , GSED was his college coach at Oklahoma State University.

A lot of the Georgia Tech Boys and top high school player's went to George Kehlnhofer during the time when Howell was growing up, and yes I have heard that Howell went to him as well. Other Kehlnhofer students included Stewart Cink, David Duval, and Ted Fort. George had a program called Accelerized Golf that was based on TGM principles while teaching a swinging pattern from what I have been told.

George is now teaching at Bridgemill Golf Club with another TGM instructor Tom Ness. I have never been to George or met him, but you do hear a lot about him (he's respected) in the Georgia Section where I teach.
