Let me begin this post by stating that I love Wes Patterson’s long drive swing action, and I’m in no way criticizing him here.
He not only eliminated the #1 Ranked swinger (Maurice Allen) the day before in the Round of 32, he’s got the classic lifting heel pivot, the awesome right-tilting spine at impact with the head behind the right knee, and a flawless left side position.
For those of you who like to see the long ball, the Volvik World Long Drive Championships will be airing on Golf Channel tomorrow and Wednesday night at 9:00 PM EST.
You can also watch the live streams of head-to-head matches on the World Long Drive Facebook page, as competition is already under way (Round of 32).
This will be the first year in a decade that we won’t see Jamie Sadlowski (Champion in ’08 & ’09), as he has hung up the long drive clubs to play tournament golf.
