    Just read in todays INDO that Harrington is stuggling to

    "find a 'keyword' to trigger his golf swing... "

    Here's some suggestions:

    1 "Effing hit it :eek:"
    2 "OMFG Just Hit It :o"

    Anyone got any others we could send on to him ?

    well, a trigger needs to be dynamic, easy to do, and positive. So for Padraig, it would have to be a phrase.....



    "Focus on your Focus, emmmm, also, keep your right knee solid, emmmm, lock our your wrist at an angle no greater than 68.5 degrees, emmmmm, finish your backswing while humming waltzing matilda, emmmmm start your downswing with a graded weight transfer emmmmm keep the power on...emmmmm...ah SH1TE, another snap hook".

    I'm going to back him anyway. If all he need is a word you would imagine he sorts something by the weekend. :p

    I'l lend him mine if it helps him.

    Abracadabra ... Boom ..!

    He's been driving me mental for quite a while now. Try grip it and rip it.

    How about "DidIreallyneedtodeconstructmyswing", that shouldnt mess with his head too much

    Heard from a man that knows a man that recently he had the club makers demented trying to get the right frequency in his irons shafts

    A lot of pros have the shafts frequency matched or very close to it. It just sounds like a funny thing to say..!

    He does have a habit of suddenly turning it round when you think he is at his sh1ttest.


    and Vice versa of course......
