Justin Leonard....Yoda's posterboy??

[Greg Schoenberg]

Anybody have that thought while watching him. Here is what I noticed....

1. Arm waggle
2. No hands downswing
3. Short backswing
4. Upright stance.
5. Right forearm/shaft on similar plane at address
6. Hitter
7. Few moving parts....minimal hip movement
8. Lottsa lag

So....who teaches this guy?

On TGC the other night they had his swing up on an analyzer with plane lines. The downswing has a shift down to the elbow plane.

So it's not really a Yoda style Turned Shoulder Plane stroke. I'm not sure of the other components JL uses.

I think his teacher had been Randy Smith, but he has transitioned to Butch Harmon in the last year or so.
