The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
He's got very nice swing and lovely impact aligments...You can see the power in those alignments. But he's not a very good ballstriker by tour standards... I have no idea why.

I would imagine if you are long but not accurate you may be hitting from bad places into greens...I wonder if driving stats are done from Par 4's or Par 5's or a mix of both?
From 2004-2006 he was around 190th in ball striking. In 2007 he was 160th and this year 113-123. Does that appear to be very good and significant improvement in ball striking?
I understood he was using the Stack n Tilt method.
