Johan Edfors's Hitting Characteristics

I did do a Tivo slow motion of Edfors on the Practice Ground, but it only confirmed what I had already seen (which confirmation is why I stopped it down in the first place):

1. His high, still Clubshaft at the Top;

2. Drive Loading in the Start Down and minimum Accumulator Lag in the Downstroke;

3. Right Arm Throw to PUSH the Club through Impact;

4. All of which combined to produce an Automatic Angled Hinge Action into the Follow-Through.

The Action of an individual Component may be hard to spot in the flash of a given Stroke. However, the important characteristics produce a Motion that is readily identifiable. A Golf Stroke is a combination of its individual Components, their related tendencies and the resulting overall Motion. These are the things that catch the trained eye of the competent instructor.
