Golf Update: Charlie Wi supports the Stack and Tilt method
Charlie Wi has openly supported the Stack and Tilt teaching method which has been promoted by Mike Bennett and Andy Plummer. The thirty eight year old played the Nationwide, Buy.com and Asian Tours prior his entry in the PGA Tour as a regular status player.
The stack and Tilt is a golf geometrical method which was first described by the Plummer-Bennett duo in which according to them, the body from the ball, never moves off.
The Tie at the BMW Championship Wi attained with Dustin Johnson is enough validation of his loyalty towards his coaches. Wi became rather defensive this Friday to the point where he openly criticized two players in the field for leaving the golf teaching
method. The coaches are now currently teaching Tiger Woods. Wi failed to mention Sea Foley’s name when he marked him as “the person currently working with Tiger” and said that Foley borrowed heavily from the S and T method.
Mike Weir and Aaron Baddeley referred to this style for quite sometime. These players however left this type of golf style with the argument that just wasn’t right for them in any way. They had used this approach but it didn’t work for them.
Wi still supports the Stack and Tilt method and molests those who aren’t favouring towards this system of golf. Wi refers to the Wier and Baddeley performance in regards to the Stack and Tilt and says that Aaron Baddeley had never been the all shimmery ball
striker type of player. He says that with the Andy and Mike duo, Baddeley won three times along with the honour of reaching the list of top 20 players in the world. Wi says that with the previous record like this, if Baddeley thinks that this wasn’t enough
to justify the Sand T method then he thinking otherwise is his problem.
As far as Weir is concerned, Wi said that he too had benefited from the Stack and Tilt method. Wi recalled Weir’s history and said that with the help of Andy and Mike, weir had been able to collect a total of $6 Million in 2 seasons. Wi said that maybe Weir
and Baddeley, his friends, are currently with Andy and Mike since they are nowhere to be seen this week.
Concerning the moment of truth, the impact, Wi said that he chose to stick with the current type of golf method because he wasn’t able to find such an instructor who could help him comprehend what happened at the impact.
Wi was tied with Dustin Johnson at the BMW Championship and gives credit to the coaches style method. His game had been great till the last two holes where he bogeyed for 74. To finish in the top 30, wi was only looking for a par but the 12 foot par putt
didn’t work as he imagined it would. The 30th spot favoured Bo Van Pelt.
Wi says that the Stack and Tilt system is all about geometry and is same with every player whether he is a 5’5” or a 6’4”. When asked about what he meant by geometry, he explained that the swinging in an arc or more appropriately a circle, is geometry. He
said that a person of different heights would have different swinging plane but that doesn’t change the geometry in any way.
In 1995, Wi was known as the All-American first team at the University of California. The thirty eight year old played PGA and the returned in this event in the year 2007, which he attained after he reached the success ladder at the Qualifying School in
2006. The current season is known to be Wi’s best season of all even though he had been a professional since the year 1995.
