His problems with vertigo certainly didn't help anything and he said once he had the health problems (and back problems) he started to make compensations and pretty soon could no longer find the golf swing that brought him all the glory.

At his prime, I think DD had one of the best swings in the history of the game, not a swing built on power and compensations. It isn't as though he's this marvelous compensator now when he doesn't have it.

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
