@triadhoops ok first off steve stricker's setup is no where near moe normans setup i mean seriously have u ever seen moe swing? also moe has a lot of wrist action in his swing to strickers quiet wrists i mean honestly think before you comment cuze moe's swing is near the opposite of steves.

@triadhoops Good observations. One advantage Steve has to implement a swing like this is his physical size. He's 6 foot and a slim 190-200. He can swing 75% in control and still achieve great distance.

In case you guys don't see the resemblance, Steve Stricker has very similar setup fundamentals as MOE NORMAN. Notice in his swing he has very few moving parts, most notably his wrists and feet. He figured something out a few years ago and it reseructed his career.

How simple is that swing ! Brilliant.

He stays in position and keeps posture so well that it looks like a practice swing when he swings.

For those guys wondering about distance, he has been slinging it out close to 300 the last few weeks. The fact that he can do that with a swing that quiet is just a lesson in reality that some folks can do things that others can't. The rest of us will have to live with our limitations.

Just checked it out 14 Tournaments in the past 3 years have been won by the current top 10 in Driving Distance. 14 out of 120 tournaments is 11% so 89% of tournaments have been won by the short knocker ie 290 or less. Tour avg is 287 rt now.

@blackkow87 Take accuracy and consistency over length any day bud, Just 1 more club that's it

Such a simple swing, not a whole lot that can go wrong and very little timing to worry about.

Always suprising that he can move it in the 280-285 range consistently. Not a super fast rotation, no massive turns, minimal hands, etc, but the dude just gets perfect synchonization and good impact so he can still move it some.

i wanna agree widdat, but I drive 260 so i hold my 4 iron a lot

i think being able to hit it far means u git good contact and so get more accurate too

@triflobialglopex i agree
