It just doesn't make sense to me, because there is 100yds of SS being generated that is ignored by the Moe model.

If you want an accuracy model, then by all means use Moe because that was what he was known for.

If you want both in a model, then you will likely have to combine the two in some fashion.

I agree that Jason's technique could be improved for accuracy.
Charles,

The article was trying to show how clubhead's speed was generated in relation to the different body parts. The relationship will stay the same with Tiger, Jason or Moe.

The point in question is not whether Jason Kranz can hit a ball farther than Moe could, it is whether in either case the maximum generators of their speed are the arms and hands.
