They just showed Kevin Stadler and you could clearly see the closing AND laying back of the clubface (driver) through impact of the angled hinge.

Funny, Kosits said the face opened a little during impact....i wonder if he really knows why it did
The commentators are usually the WORST. They say so many stupid things, you'd think they were asleep at the wheel or at least had a couple of stiff drinks in the VIP tent. On the seldom occation that I get to see an event (lots of lessons on weekends), I get a kick out of listening to their analysis. It's a good thing they can make a living commentating; giving lessons with that info would have them collecting a government check.
I remember when Elk was doing the Doyle waggle and Curtis Strange says- ‘he wants to get more left forearm into the swing.’ Yikes !

And the worst was a few weeks back when Brandel Chamblee says that an Over the Top move isn’t bad if you shift your weight first. <puke> I have to think Brandel got tongue tied and couldn’t recover from start of his sentence. Or....
The great news for any TGM instructor is that the general public is so confused that we'll never run out of clients. I'm going to keep sending Christmas cards to the Golf Channel, Golf Digest, and all of the golf commentators. They keep me in business.
I still remember the time as a child when I realized that everything that was written in the library and everything that I saw or heard on TV was not gospel, but someone's opinion. It was one of those moments that you never forget. I had always thought adults knew what they were talking about. That childish belief has since been DESTROYED.
