I would leave this up to Jim to answer, but I don't think his grip is that weak. I suspect golfers are just too accustomed to all the strong grips in the game today. Also this swing is much more teachable than the PC down the line stuff that's taught these days. If you hand people a club and ask them to swing, they're far more likely to swing like this than they are to contort their bodies to do what the instructor wants--not always a good thing, but useful in this case.

great swing for Bruce ..but sorry that swing would not be teachable even if you wanted to..Much like Furyk's, just not teachable.

One thing worth noting, his grip is somewhat weak, the back of his left hand is pointing to the target. Therefore, even with the bowed wrist, is clubface is only slightly closed.
Combining a bowed left wrist with a strong grip is not such a good combination.

Wasn't Calvin Peete a 9-time driving leader and 7-time GIR leader? Two great swings for sure.

Jim, what did Bruce tell you about the subject of the bowed left wrist at the top?

Thanks, Jim. I have been looking high and low for a Bruce Lietzke swing analysis and finally you have one. I am trying to switch to a fade from a draw as I find a draw too hard to control and my natural swing tendency is more over the top. What golfer wouldn't want a swing that is maintenance free and long.
Bruce said that didn't you want a flat left wrist at impact so it didn't hurt having it flat at the top. Pretty simple for Bruce
