Swing thoughts from Nissan Open

Watching on Sunday I saw 2 bits of information that were interesting:

1. Peter Kostis in describing Rich Beem, said to the amatuers in the audience: "I you are going to error on the grip, make sure you error on the strong side please" I laffed.

2. They also did a swing vision of Ernie Els after he had just pushed his 5th or 6th shot in a row. At the top of his backswing, he had the clubhead toe down! It was apparent he wasn't getting the face closed. I was shocked at the analysis. I thought for sure they would say something like "his grip is too weak" or "his balance is bad" or "his cap is on crooked"

Kostis used to go to Valhalla in Louisville, every year. He doesn't anymore.

I teach a mile from the club, I raised the bar. Kostis looked silly next to me.

Now lots of the guys go to other big names all over the country, and the staff does a much better job than they did years ago, but...

Once they saw TEACHING, all of that Kotis and Flick (he used to come there too) stuff looked pretty silly.
