Brandt Snedeker in Slo-Mo

There's a whole lot of interest in Brandt Snedeker's swing... And with exact cause. Brandt's move is quite simple and very well-balanced. I've dug up more than one slo-mo films that will help you pick out some of the keys to do the equal.

This first video comes from 2010 -- an evaluation by means of Peter Kostis:

I want you to notice that A-shape Kostis has drawn along Brandt's sides at address. See how he stays within them throughout his swing? He's turning his hips, not sliding them. The consistency of his body over the ball is a big part of his consistent contact with the ball.

He makes a one-piece takeaway and his right knee (aka his trailing knee) stays reasonably stable. It doesn't slide sideways away from the target because he isn't pushing his hips sideways. No, his hips are turning and moving farther away from us, back away from the ball.

When Kostis talks about his hips "bumping" in the direction of the front line on the downswing, I want you to be aware of his crotch. (OK, forestall wondering grimy out there!) The top of the A-form formed by way of his legs doesn't surely circulate ahead that tons. Rather, maximum of that "bump" is resulting from his hips turning. When he simply hits the ball, his legs are only barely closer to the goal than they were at address.

Here's a much newer slo-mo from 2012:

I assume the maximum interesting component about this newer video is that Brandt's driver not gets to parallel at the pinnacle of his backswing. And in case you watch closely, you'll see wherein he loses a number of his membership head pace -- while he changes course on the pinnacle, his wrists definitely uncock slightly as he starts his downswing.

But I wouldn't allow that little problem stop you from copying Sneds's swing. After all, he is already were given three Top3s this year and he is only 2 photographs off the lead at Pebble after the primary spherical.
