well said. You should watch the round 1 or 2 etc of him on here at Augusta at like 55 or 60 years old-it's ridiculous. Like a quiet walk in the park for a smooth 74 or something like that, which is just insane factoring his age and the course set up and distance etc-and-he aint thrilled with the rounds.@@browningbelgium2326

Boom Boom has the most beautiful swing I've ever seen in my life. Smooth, syrupy and effortless. It doesn't look any different today on the Champions Tour either. I could sit on a chair at a driving range and watch Fred hit balls all day.

What makes Fred’s swing a joy to watch is his tempo, timing and rhythm. That’s what should be emulated, not particular club positions.

@mrbigolnuts30416 жыл бұрын
brett fruin swings today are not about longevity, they're about aggressive attack angles and violent body movements to maximize distance heralded in by Tiger Woods, and that's what PGA PROs teach. Freddie has all the distance required yet he hasn't had to change a thing about his swing, it'd be a much more popular game if his swing was taught.

He and Louis Oosthuizen have the best swings in golf in our view. Elegant, rhythmic and powerful. Efficient. I remember watching Fred live at the Masters in 1984 with the old persimmon heads and when he hit the ball it looked like it came out of a cannon and the sound of the ball being smashed within an inch of it's life was truly remarkable.
@jr-xs9tf4 жыл бұрын
Saw him hit a persimmon driver 300+ into the wind at an old tour stop in Abilene TX about 1984. The swing looked like he was just warming up. Everything looks almost slo-mo until right before impact. Pure butter.

I really like the arms first, then shoulders and hips in the backswing, and that he completes the backswing before starting down. Followed him for a round at the Mitsubishi some years ago. What a talent!

He releases the hands so hard through the hitting area. His right hand just about comes off the club. When you fully release the hands you get effortless speed especially when you can crank that right shoulder that far back. My favorite swing of all.

@axnjxn916 жыл бұрын
Joseph Gibbons if by quiet you mean balanced, that’s true. But his hip turn is pretty drastic, he just looks so relaxed overall because his upper body is so loose. Watch his leg pushing into the ground just before he hits the ball. That move is built up through the violent hip turn just before that. Raw power disguised by relaxed arms and shoulders. That’s where the whip is coming from.

A swing representative of one of the coolest, classiest human beings to ever grace the emerald, green fairways that mankind has had the privilege to witness, PERIOD!
