Thank God for them. You really can really get a feel for how the swing works when watching the pros, they make it look so easy!Golf Addicthttp://www.birdieblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-34271162955505729792007-07-06T16:45:00.000-07:002007-07-06T16:45:00.000-07:00I should add I also have great video (also SwingVision) of the hitting down action of a driver, which refutes the myth that you are supposed to hit up with a driver. If you would like me to email it to you send me an email (hitdown@telus.net).Clive Scarffwww.hitdowndammit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-5140813703550831362007-03-14T00:18:00.000-07:002007-03-14T00:18:00.000-07:00Hi Golf Grouch,<BR/><BR/>I understand a little more now. I was probably hitting too steeply, will try a shallower angle now.<BR/>Yup, the long iron is much harder to hit than a hybrid, but it looks much better than a hybrid... :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your help.Jonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-8447448853527712812007-03-13T22:19:22.339-07:002007-03-13T22:19:22.339-07:00Jo,<BR/><BR/>Sorry, I don't have any long iron clips.<BR/><BR/>While you still hit the ball with a descending blow with the long iron, it is not as steep as with shorter irons. At most, your long iron should make a very shallow divot after contact with the ball. A deep divot indicates that the club path was too steep.<BR/><BR/>The loft of the long iron combined with the shallow angle of approach will generate the proper launch angle and backspin to get the ball airborne. However, striking a long iron properly takes a lot of precision. It is definitely the hardest club to master.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Golf Grouchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02287652443978965903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-82166983750017015602007-03-12T04:06:00.000-07:002007-03-12T04:06:00.000-07:00Hi, do you have any swing vision videos of Tiger hitting his long irons, like the 2, 3 or 4?<BR/>I don't understand how to hit down with the long irons... Tiger uses a 7 iron in the vid, but the loft is almost perpendicular to the ground. Wouldn't hitting down with the long irons just smack the ball into the ground?

Amazing to watch how much the racquets and bats actually move when they strike the ball.<BR/><BR/>This will help instructors/instruction so much.<BR/><BR/>Hope you don't mind if I link to it.Calhttp://www.theyearingolf.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-77200695372696347542007-02-17T18:03:00.000-08:002007-02-17T18:03:00.000-08:00If you have ideas for SwingVison there something you can do. CBS is asking for your imput of what you would like to see on SwingVision.

You could watch it slice or hook, low or high. It was amazing and great viewing just like watching your buddy hit his tee shot but for some reason they stopped doing it - maybe they shipped that camera down to Cape Canaveral to follow the space shots.JimmyJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-1155437657618741002006-08-12T19:54:00.000-07:002006-08-12T19:54:00.000-07:00thanks for posting that video of tiger.

One telling sequence was of someone who hit a push slice. You could see the face open ever so slightly on impact. Swingvision is great for sand shots too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-1089359333910177952004-07-09T00:48:53.910-07:002004-07-09T00:48:53.910-07:00I tried to find information about swingview on the web but didn't find any.
