2006 Champions Clinic

[rosskoss]

featuring Tiger Woods, Mike Weir, Jim Fyurk and Geoff Ogilvy

Does anyone know when this repeats? I've been trying to find information on the Golf Channel's site and cannot find repeat show times. I want to record it.

I don't know when it repeats but I must have backed it up and watched Tiger hit a draw that looked like it was on a rail a dozen times. I honestly thought he shanked it down the line when all of a sudden it seemed to make a U turn and draw back to the target flag. I'm always impressed watching these demo's since I can hit draws and fades myself...just not on demand. They tend to show up whenever they want. But to watch Tiger hit one with that much movement AND hit his target was just unreal.

Yes ... sweet Jesus I saw that today - I am in awe. Tiger hit a draw I swear went to the precisely correct distance, and made a 90* left turn towards the flag he was aiming at. Actually, anyone else would have called it a hook - in fact severe snap hook - but it was delibrate, intentional, and snap hooked directly at the flag.

 

I hit draws and fades all the time - working the ball is a great deal of what the game is. But I think in terms of drawing it around a basic dogleg, or fading it to avoid a trap with a right-hand pin placement. To have the sort of control Tiger's shot had (and he wasn't really even warmed up - they were just fooling around) almost doesn't seem humanly possible.

 

He called it his "boomerang" shot. And it was seriously wind aided. But still, to be able to judge the wind that precisely and make the ball go EXACTLY where he wanted it just blew my mind.

 

EDIT: Here are some videos of the clinic. I have looked at all of them yet, so I don't know if the boomerang shot is included.

EDIT EDIT: If you don't want to mess with the "registration", this is a direct link to the video player, but I don't the quality of the video is as good:

Anybody gonna capture/record this on a DVD? Obviously Germany won't get any footage like this.

Though I'll be in NYC for 4 days from Dec. 6th, I don't think our hotel has a DVD or VHS recorder.

 

SO if anybody in NYC could cap that one for me in best possible quality on a DVD that'd be awesome. Could mail it to my hotel, will pay for postage and disc, of course!!
