I think that's a fair statement, no?
Yes Sir...my only point (playing Devil's Advocate) is...perhaps, at times, he may be swinging.

Additionally, I have followed S.A. around Augusta's hilly terrain on more than one occassion, and I can tell you that his predominate pattern is hitting, whether he knows it or not. The components do not lie.

EC,
I believe you mean J. (as in Judge) Alito. And I understand your point - and do not oppose it.


Gentlemen - please do not let my opposition stop this thread - there is much to be learned and gained from it.

Yoda's swing vs. hit
Take a look at some of the vid's of Yoda swinging vs. hiting. It's really hard to tell the difference UNLESS you know what to look for.

The only difference I see in Yoda's video's is when he's swinging his clubhead lags a bit during the startup. Other than that, I have a hard time telling the difference in his motion.

...it would be interesting to know whether he is Swinging or Hitting.....but the fact is that we may never know.

I think Homer said it's too tough to study playing professionals for this very reason...

...

How about we just settle on the fact that we don't know...

.....but we CAN learn from the mechanics (Geometry I mean) of his stroke....because they are sound (prolly moreso for a Hitter than a Swinger).
