Dirk Koetter and The Big Miss

Related Topics: Dirk Koetter, Hank Haney, Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods’ former swing coach, Hank Haney, wrote a book entitled The Big Miss. If you play golf, you know all golfers have a shot they fear when the pressure is on and they have to hit a certain shot. In Tiger’s case, it’s the dreaded duck hook (huge miss to the left) that he’s fought hard to eliminate from his game over a number of swing changes. My personal big miss is a huge high slice off to the right. My hips turn too fast, my arms lag behind inside, I leave the club face wide open at impact and off the ball goes into some horrible trouble lurking on the course.
