You will never conquer golf.
There are some things stated about Tiger Woods when it comes to the golf swing and of course being as good as Tiger you will find a lot said about him. However we know a lot of things that are said are not true according to what Tiger actually states in his book, Tiger Woods How I Play Golf. the book was copyrighted in 2001.
Butch Harmon started working with Tiger in 1993 when Tiger was 17 years old. Around 2000 Tiger stated that he was well pleased with his progress because he and Butch was working on the way his body functioned during the swing.
Here are some things Tiger stated to copy from his swing. Most of these points seem to be as solid today as they were in the early 2000s:

Here are some things Tiger stated to copy from his swing. Most of these points seem to be as solid today as they were in the early 2000s:
- I turn my shoulders as far as possible without letting the range of motion disrupt my spine angle or the position of my right leg.
- I make my shoulders and arms work together throughout the swing. I don't let one get too far ahead of behind the other: That is one of the secrets of good rhythm and tempo.
- I keep the clubface square throughout the swing. That means the clubface is parallel with the left wrist and forearm.
- I strive to get the sequence of motion on the downswing just right. My lower body leads the way, followed by my shoulders, arms, and hands.
- I hit through the ball, not at it. I want to keep the clubhead traveling fairly low to the ground for a brief period after impact. That thought will promote solid contact, accuracy and maximum distance.
