The deceased, great Seve Ballestero, a large champion five times, lit at a pace that stands at the test of time.

Never had a more instinctive, creative or artistic golf player than Seve Ballesteros. His strange ability to hit the impossible hit by trouble and skillfully treat the most difficult situations of short games attributed to his wild thing. It makes sense that the child from Padreña, Spain, was destined to have the most ill myths in history, given that he learned to play the game with a single club: a 3-when! What followed was a unique historical career with five Majes (1980 and ’83 masters; 1978, ’84 and ’88 open championships), 50 European tourist victories (first at all times) and recognizing the Ryder Cup into spectacle today.
Seve’s style and gift of Swashbuckling produced higher quality jaw shots while spraying on the occasional ball that he would eventually escape from anywhere, whether a piece of tree or a car park. His mechanics reflected a host of ages and styles, including a collection of Kush’s movements: Bobby JonesThe action of the low body and the driving of Jack Nicklaus and Johnny Miller’s legs, the geometry of the modern day’s return of Nick Faldo and Tiger WoodsKing’s incomprehensible conclusion and gift, Arnold Palmer.
Learn from a real legend in the sequence below, taken in February 1986, shortly before Ballestero arrived at No.1 in OWGR at the beginning of this year’s masters.
1. Address
Check how Seve’s wings and hands look so smooth to the address – zero voltage whatever. Ballesteros was shaken as he was about to take Errol Flynn. A true athlete – light on his legs with bent knees and his legs lit.
2. Taking
As so many excellent players “feel”, Seve gripped his wrists early during his back. He did so as he rotated his lower body away from the target almost immediately. The result: the club moved more instead of around.
3. Top
The soft weapons of Seve come into play once again, producing one of the larger larger positions ever. His trail forearm is parallel to the spine, his hands are on his trail shoulder, and his front wrist is flat. In this teacher’s opinion, this is perfect.

4. Landing
Like so many excellent players in the past, Seven swings down steep while holding the club in front of him. Doing this allowed him to create the rainbow of various shot trajectories for which he was known. Fraud: a heavy dose of side movement to make it work – he is really working again here.
5. Impact
You can see more from the left side of Seve to influence than to the address. Why? He has kept his shoulders closed, which prevents the ball attacking too far from the outside. And check his anterior foot: it remains bent – not excellent to remove the ground, but perfect to control the club by hand. An artist at work!
