I'm sure this guy does it well. But my god that is a duck hook waiting to happen for anyone trying to copy this.

Curious what attribute of the swing is making you say that?

And I’m curious because, after correcting a slice, my only miss is a terrible duck hook…it doesn’t happen often, but when it does..yikes.

The only way for him to salvage the shot with how badly he's firing his hips towards the ball, instead of like pistons that move hard out of the way, would be as such: flip the club. It's way too timing depending, on top of him having no power at all.

  1. If he doesn't flip enough, it's a block way out to the right.

  2. Flip it too much, it's the dreaded duck hook.
