Tiger was only young back when he was using the old swing, experience has more to do with his added majors, to say he would have continued at that pace is pretty silly if you ask me.
I didnt state that he was going to carry on at the rate of winning majors like he had done, he has been working with Haney since mid 2004 and although it took just under a year for him to win a major, he would readily admit that he isnt 100% happy with his swing, if you look at his actual rate of winning majors since moving to haney it has not been a bad haul so far and is close to his rate circa 2000-2001
Less spin would signal that but it hasn't been the case, I don't think Tigers distance control is as good as it was with the steeper swing, maybe his wedge play but he always needed work on his wedge play and probably put the extra time into it.
Are you kidding me? he regularly used to bale through greens with short irons with the Harmon era swing
There is no way you can say Tigers driving accuracy has droped only due to 10-15 yards added. Tiger is missing fairways but a country mile, he can't get the club square (main purpose of the one plane) and he is getting through late on the ball. He is too fast for a 1 plane.
Since 2004 as well Tiger has used a graphite shaft and larger headed driver, whereas previous to Micklesons comments about inferior equipment he was a more accurate driver with steel and less technology.
Can you explain how he is too fast for a one swing plane?
