Davis Love III: Perfect Execution of TGM 1-L 5,6

[lia41985]

TGM: "There are some very simple but very accurate checks for being 'On Plane.' Whenever the Clubshaft is parallel to the ground, it must also be parallel to the base line of the Inclined Plane, which is usually (but not always) the Line of Flight also. Otherwise, the end of the Club that is closest to the ground must be pointing at the base line of the Inclined Plane - or extensions of that line, even if they must be extended to the horizon."

I'm not sure what year this is from, but I don't know why you'd change THAT swing.

This is from an issue of Golf Digest in 1992 (note the Tommy Armour 845 visor). It doesn't look like his swing has changed much since then, he is still as pure as could be.

Persimmon with a steel shaft?

Persimmon with a steel shaft?

Davis Love was one of the last players to switch to a metal driver. I think the 975 D might have been the first metal driver he used.

Ouch..

My back hurts just looking at the middle frame.

My back hurts just looking at the middle frame.

Why does that make your back hurt?

 

[flogger]

Why that make your back hurt?

Oh, just because I don't have the flexibility to marry a 20° hip turn to a 100° shoulder turn.

Great Swing!

I thought "cross the line" was supposed to be bad.

I thought "early pivot" was supposed to be bad.

I thought an "upright backswings" was supposed to be bad.

Early pivot?
