Good hands V body swings!

Any Aussies with a good set of hands on tour atm? In the past many of the top players had great hands and able to hit all types of shots making them great strikers of the ball. Anyone seen a flusher worthy of a mention? Plenty of swingers around but they are boring as imo!

Classic understatement Ray. Dry as up here with awful amounts of run.

Hey Pete how about you repeat this statement.
It seemed to bring rain!

[PeteyD]

Ha! Awesome having rain!

interesting Tiger's post match interview he said something along the lines of he could start to feel his hands coming around, mentioned hands two or three times so it certainly is something that is uppermost to his game

I dont think it is required anymore. Bubba moves the ball quite a bit but most of the others dont. (not on purpose anyway)

the ball is just too hard and they dont have to keep the spin down with iron shots any more...

Also - i dont think being a great ball striker means you you can hit all kinds of shots any more. I think it is more about controlling the distance and trajectory or height.
