    The most gifted golfer of all time. For some people it is a shame that they have to get old and even more of a shame that they have to die. Seve is one of those people. Greg Norman said once of Seve, “Of all the golfers that I saw, I never saw anyone like Seve.” “We will never see the likes of him ever again.” Is there any more that can be said from a legend about a legend?

  • @jeremydavidson9194

    It seems like Seve used a modern pitching and chipping technique before anyone else. But I never here him get credit for him. He is not chopping down on the ball with the ball far back in the stance. He is using bounce and keeping the club face open throughout.

      Honestly I think it's all pretty relative! Maybe Jack or tiger couldn't do certain things he could but there's also many things they could do that he can't or couldn't. It's more like art and we just appreciate different beauty. It's not that one's better or worse just different. Like you might like Monet better than Picasso but I might like Van Gogh. They all have very different technical skills and vision and etc.

  • @bobscottjnr
    @bobscottjnr 5 лет назад +1

    Word to the wise: Seve is not actually opening the clubface on these shots. Take notice of how low he sets his hands at address. Obviously, this lowering of the handle causes the club face to be aimed way left. In order to get the face relatively square to target Seve sets the club open. The key to this shot is super low hands without setting the clubface aiming lower and left; essentially he is laying the clubface back thereby exposing the bounce of the club. What a genius!

    • @markhousego4756
      @markhousego4756 5 лет назад

      Wtf

    • @bobscottjnr
      @bobscottjnr 4 года назад +1

      @@markhousego4756 Take your normal address position with a wedge. Now lower the handle. Where does the face point when the handle is lowered in this manner? For a right-handed golfer, it will aim left. Now organize the face so that it is square to your target. This is what Seve is doing. He learned to set his hands low when playing short shots with longer irons as a kid. The lower hands also set the shaft on a rather flat plane angle which helps to ensure a relatively shallow angle of attack. The reason I posted my comment was to offer a small clarification on Seve's advice to open the clubface; I was not criticizing Seve. What Seve does not mention (in this particular video) is how low he sets his hands. I had the pleasure of watching him do a demonstration hitting greenside bunker shots with a long iron in person. Low hands allow you to open the face, thereby exposing the clubs bounce, without aiming the clubface way right of your target. Always happy to respond to WTF!
