is that a junior's driver?

[ReachingLostSouls]

@FHSqb12 might be a 3 wood, not 100% sure but it looks like one.

@FHSqb12 its a 3 wood

[anderlin2121]

I have the same swing

[AJAmore22]

Very unorthodox swing but hey it works the only problem is I fear is that because the swing requires so much athleticism he will be forced to change and adapt it as he gets older which is hard to do

[chakenfangersaregood]

@AJAmore22 john daly seems to be having no problem making a full turn

[rw5791]

@chakenfangersaregood where?At the buffet table?

[criswelljody]

@chakenfangersaregood if you watch Daly, he has less of a turn. He just compensates by making a full hip turn with left heel off the ground, bent left elbow, and cupped left wrist.

[MrLuigiFercotti]

@AJAmore22

Definitely a young man's action. Though many pros adapt as they get older, Jack changed, Watson changed, Tiger changed, and they all stayed competitive.

0:25 reminds me of hogan

differnt swings however

[fukurokoujikanemitu]

Rate my swing, Thank you from JAPAN

[sharpcheddarful]

@TyKUHN08 I wouldnt say he doesnt have a goood swing, but it is very demanding physically and would pretty much would only work for him,

[TyKUHN08]

I agree. He doesnt have a good swing. Powerful, yes, but inconsistent.

[truffelp]

fantastic athletic motion!

hits it like a whip

[Sagacity833]

UGLY! but i guess it works if your 5'9 150. For the rest of the general public, good luck.

[stackleft]

@Sagacity833 Nothing ugly about this guys swing.

[sharpcheddarful]

@Sagacity833 ya, effective but definitely not a move that most people could pull off, it'll change as he gets older

[vokeySM]

@Sagacity833 who are you to judge his golf swing?

[bubbawatsonisbeast]

i always hit a draw, for almost every shot unless i have to hit a fade. but i hit it a lot differently thatn him. i take my shoulders wayy back, i stand a little more upright, and the big thing is my hips are actually closed not open. should i open them more and if i do would i still hit a draw?

[QuotaPBaby]

@bubbawatsonisbeast make a triangle...

[sharpcheddarful]

@bubbawatsonisbeast stop flirting with thoughts of this or that, trust what u feel..good luck

[rreegg333]

@bubbawatsonisbeast get over yourself!

[bubbawatsonisbeast]

@rreegg333 haha i know i was just really confused

[reflectivegoat]

This is much like Olazabal from the top of the downswing through impact. It would be interesting to know Fowler's driving accuracy vs. the field. I seem to remember the main criticism of Olazabal's game being his poor driving accuracy, but always thought his swing was suited for iron accuracy.

[lilgolfjock]

May try this swing but not sure I'm flexible enough!

[clipboardcrotch]

@lilgolfjock That is like watching a porno and saying your going to try to have sex with a huge dong.

[MrLuigiFercotti]

Take a lesson kids, hips stay in front of the shoulders all the way to impact. Hips more open to the target line than the shoulders untill well into the follow through. Maybe you can't do it like Ricky, but even a few degrees difference is better than none. If you can do that and maintain your angles and posture, you are going somewhere.

[0123kid]

Damn too bad he came second today.

[claytronica23]

Really interesting how his left arm breaks down entering impact. That is a little unusual and more often seen with an amateur swing (uh - like mine...) -- but what do I know, the guy is a hell of a ball striker. I wonder if he gets any grief for this elbow flex from his coach.

[gottabighit1]

@claytronica23 Yeah...I'm 49 and I was taught to keep my left arm as stiff as a board...It seldom breaks down when I swing. I've swung the same for 40 years, not sure I could emulate Rickie's swing if I had to.... I think I'll hit the range and give it a try, however...

[scottyray12]

Wow his knees are bent at almost 90 degrees. Why is he so low to the ground?

[guitaristbiker]

@scottyray12 because he's got a super flat swing, his take away looks real upright but he has like the second flatest swing on tour, so he bends his knees alot and swings real flat around that angle , nice power move, but if your not a pro real hard to get all the way through the ball without blockin it when ur swingin that flat

[scottyray12]

@guitaristbiker  impressive

[guitaristbiker]

@scottyray12 yea he's real impressive, he'll be real real good at this rate,but yea with the bent knees it can alow for a lil more turn and more power, and the lower you are the more balance you have, but if ur not a pro its real easy to not get that front hip out of the way fast enough and ur body is in your arms' way and then you push/block the ball out to the outside and hit it out of the fairway

[scottyray12]

@guitaristbiker I worked on getting that low all weekend. I was hitting more fairways, but had a some scuffs as well. I just have to get adjusted to new level to keep from grounding out the club.

[guitaristbiker]

@scottyray12 yea, i mean for someone his size that needs to hit it a mile on tour its good cause it gives him more of that rubber band effect, but i mean just a good happy medium where ur not super low like him but not standin up straight, just kinda like that short stop position, thats great, and then you just gotta make sure you get that front hip out of the way so everything can swing through, how ever you don't wanna have ur weight hangin back though cause you'll push it right too

[m4ttdj4]

How about the extention in his arms through and after impact ... soo good
