Upon 2 requests, I have made another video of my swing. This is TW11, M+, TPX. It is one handed. I use my left hand as a guide, but on my forward swing, I tuck it behind my back. My 3rd shot in the video was using a wedge. When putting, I rock back and fourth. enjoy, -ken

My thoughts -
We're playing a game that emulates golf, and TPX is intended to be a closer approximation of a swing than previous generations. Real golfers have been working on the issues of swing longer than anybody else. Therefore, the best example of a TP swing should be a real golf swing.
There are three problems with this approach; 1) the wiimote does not weigh the same as a golf club, nor is the center of mass anywhere near where a golf club is; 2) with m+ attached the dimensions of the wiimote is not long enough to accommodate two hands locked together and is too big around for even big hands; 3) its next to impossible (in my experience) to reliably produce 100% shot after shot with a two handed grip. My solution is to hold the wiimote in one hand. The trade off is that its more difficult to control the club face.
Try finding a youtube or some other video of a good swing. I watched one of Trahan that looked pretty good, but the one I really like is Fred Couples. The fundamental is to keep a still head. It doesn't move right or left or up or down, although it may twist. I saw a quick highlight of Tiger Woods working with a swing coach at the PGA. The coach rested a golf club grip end on his head while he was hitting practice shots, and the club never fell off his head.
