He needs to lose the obsession with firing his hips. This leads to him having his hips too face on to the target on full out shots, before his shoulders and arms reach their preordained destination. Hence the blocks right.
When he does slow the hips down his shoulders and arms, which usually struggle to keep pace with the Driver, often outrun the hips in his Iron play.
You gonna' tell him, or will I?
After you fix his pivot, get him to stop cocking his right wrist. And tell him not to whine about it.

One thing I've noticed about Tiger...when he is playing bad he takes full responsibility for it....doesn't blame the course, the weather, the photographers, the fans, his opponents. When he sucks he is the first to point it out. When he was a young punk growing up in our area, he would throw fits on the course ....his parents straightened him out quickly on that crap. Tiger is probably the last guy to leave the range after a poor outing.
I just left him a message . . . He called back and said for you to show up at his place in Florida. Said to bang on the door as hard as you can. He really likes to hear Free Bird sung really loud about 3:30 in the morning. He said to let you know if he doesn't come to the door immeadiately just keep singing really loud to the guards. They love to be entertained. Also he said something about making sure that you show up just in your tighty whiteez. He said give him a few minutes and he'll be right down to greet you. You may as well book the flight. He wants you there ASAP.
Get to steppin'!!!
Now wacha go and do that fer? You know I can't sang!

True, he very often is out of sequence, both because of his active hips, and as attempts to 'save' shots. It really is telling just how high his right shoulder comes through on those blocked shots.
Yesterday, the little bit of coverage I saw, he really looked in much better sequence on his good shots. Very 'connected'. The hands and chest moving through together. (hence swinging the entire power package as a unit - 'in synch').
Perhaps the best player to watch for that is Ken Venturi, who appeared to always have the proper Rhythm and hands to chest relationship. One of the best 'swings' ever IMO.
uppndownn - the right forearm flying wedge - the right forearm 'supporting' the shaft, in line with it from a down the line view at impact with a bent right wrist. Watch some of the video clips of Brian Gay setting up to a shot in the gallery for a great example. A big key to obtaining that in line support is that the right wrist is 'level'. See the photo's in chapter 5. Tiger often has the right forearm 'over' that line (pulls) or under it (pushes), both caused in large part from not having the level right wrist/in line relationship understanding of impact fix.

Inside out draws with a bunch of clubface rotation make me ill. The ball can go anywhere: Push, Draw, Big Hook

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)
