Love this. Illustrates a lot of things I've been working on lately in the off-season here in northern Indiana.
"Staying Down" meaning keeping the left shoulder down in the backswing.
Disciplined right arm / elbow in the backswing. Fold early and don't let it "chicken wing". That has a big impact on the clubface position.
Reconnecting the right arm to the right side early in the downswing. Helps with keeping a good swing plane.
And then just overall timing and rhythm. Oh, and notice an aging Tiger straightens his right leg a lot more now in the backswing (not over-extended straightening like IMO Jordan Speith does). Can turn much better that way and avoid back problems.
A lot of other things that could be pointed out, but those are things I'm working on at the moment that this swing really helps to visualize.
Edit: Can I also point out that he allows the clubshaft / clubhead to outpace the arms early in the follow through and finishes around mid-ear level (instead of at the top of his head or even above his head) and the clubhead is closer to the ground at the finish than the grip (not that horizontal position). Unless a specific punch shot or something, I despise the current popular trend of the exact opposite of the follow-through and finish shown here.
