Let me explain what a defensive swing is. You don't PLAN a defensive swing. here's an example of one-
Tiger sees water left. Cool. Doesn't bother him. Sometime during his swing, that water enters his mind and startles him, so he makes a subconcious manipulation and leaves the face wide open, sending it right away from the water. A defensive swing is INSTINCTUAL. NOT planned.
He has plenty of room to hit it straight. PLENTY. The flag is just left of the tower. If he can hit he crowd from where he's aiming, he hit a pretty shitty shot.
yeah, a defensive swing in golf. people often fight each other with the clubs, you have to know how to defend yourself.. sports commentators make shit up to sound smart.
why do the people sit practically right in front of him? if he shanked it or anything they could get seriously injured or even killed.
@ETrain12 Not to be incorrect/offensive like most the other people who replied to you, a defensive swing is when a golfer swings at a golf ball with the sole intent of "not doing something" be it hitting it into a bunker or water. While with most golfers, both pro and amateur this can be done, it usually results in an equally bad outcome. It's rare that you'll hear an announcer describe an "offensive swing" mainly because no one got to that level scared of failure.
just imagine being in that position with all the people there. It looks so easy just to push it right into someones face. Imagine a shank right into that guys camera lens. Tiger has to face that a lot.
He totally chickened out on that one. Held the face open and blocked it right, that's what Miller means by "defensive," didn't want to go left and hit it right.
If I would be hitting that ball surrounded by that crowd, on that rough, I would have definitly hit the face of the guy on the right wearing white polo shirt.
A defensive swing occurs when a golfer, while attempting to hit his/her target, makes a subconscious effort to avoid a specific result, rather than to achieve one, resulting in failure, which more often than not is caused by a lack of familiarity, confidence, concentration, or a combination of all three factors.
@ETrain12 a defensive swing is to play against a downhil/uphill/sidehill lie...all it is is overcompensating for the lie which there really wasn't here but its not made up but no need to use it in this video since there wasnt that bad of a lie....
@ETrain12 i think what they meant is he didnt fully believe in that shot which caused him to mess up. instead of going all the way with it, tiger, in the middle of his swing process second guessed him self thinking he was going to screw it up in the first place causing him to be "defensive". but im just a crappy amature LOL
@ETrain12 What they mean is that he was guarding against pulling it left towards the real trouble. He dropped his hands & shoulders on the downswing and came out of the shot to avoid a hook, and consequently hit a weak push.
@ETrain12 not overswinging the club just trying to catch it in the center of face. Not swinging as hard as possible no draw or fade but high risk because u miss swinging to easy and sending it right like he did
@ETrain12 A defensive sing is when a golfer tries to hard to make a good shot, so they move their lower body too slow trying to protect everything else, which will make the ball go left like that.
@ETrain12 in fact no they don't. A defensive swing is when you pull back on your swing, messing it up. DUMBASS dont comment unless you know what your talking about >:p
@ETrain12 Understand now what a defensive swing is? You must regret ever making that comment. Shame on the 150 Tiger muppets who've given you the thumbs up for it.
Sorry to be harsh, but if you don't understand what a defensive swing is you shouldn't be commenting on golf clips.
@XxChristmanXx04 uhhh not trying to be an ass but that dead grass is clearly where the crowd has been walking and they were forced to be move back because of how far right his shot was..
@Ping94Golf so was i, i punched him in the face and threw him over that cliff into the water....he shagged mermaids while he was down there, then he got dry clothes and played the rest of the holes
