I find it interesting that two years ago Phil decided to dial it back and hit more fairways....and he finally won a major.

This year he shows up and he's back to wanting to hit it farther. He's doing this by lifting his heel and turning his hips a lot more than last year. He's creating a lot more wrist cock and cluhead lag. Rick Smith was talking about it a few weeks ago and said - "only a pro should try this".

Phil's made the determination that distance is more important than accuracy off the tee. And the PGA stats seem to support this. Of course, this strategy will not work at the US Open. It will probably work just fine at Augusta.....as long as he doesn't get too wild.
