Tiger Woods Silhouette
Remember this Tiger Woods Nike Commercial where he is bouncing a ball on his wedge?
Of course you do! Who doesn't - it was totally famous. Now imagine how cool it would look if you took the very end of that where he hits the ball sort of baseball style and you made the background all white, and had Tiger as a silhouette.
It would maybe look something like this:
Then if you wanted to have some real fun with it you could reverse it and make Tiger appear left handed:
You could even animate it into a real slick web 1.0 flash intro page.
I don't have the skills to do that here but you can see it in action on PHIL MICKELSON's official website:
Click on that image of *Phil Mickelson* to see their flash intro. You be the judge 
[ Spotted by my man Taylor at earthgolf ]
UPDATE: Turns out Phil's site has used that Tiger intro for over a year!

UPDATE #2: Added a closer look at the 4th image
Chicken wing

| WOW. How did you find that? Go Tiger. |

| Holy crap, Rich. Of course you're checking out that Fred Couples site, you stalker. But really, that's so cool. And I didn't even know Phil had a site like that. When Phil notices you for all the traffic you drive to it, mention me *blink blink*.

- Nice snag, Taylor at earthgolf. |

| Guess the guys running Phils site are tiger Fans......What will Phil do next??? Start driving a Buick... |
| Does it really matter!: | (04.03.2006, 20:15) |
| Haaahaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa I'm crying! |

| Nice. Regardless of how far-fetched it may be, you pulled it together oh, so nicely. |

| I don't think this is too far fetched....I watch a lot of Tiger and though conspiracy theories ARE a lot of fun, I believe this one. It's not even the ball position at impact as much as it's the general move through the ball. It looks much more like a left-handed Woods than Phil, that's for sure. |

| Who cares...Alpha Males who like to brag about every pithy thing? My larger concern is who would waste his time ( a woman would never do it ) determining the plausability of this image. |
| BuffaloGolfer.Com: | (06.03.2006, 11:58) |
| In addition, if you look at the 4th image in the Tiger sequence, the left arm is way too chicken-winged to be Tiger. Just goes to show, you can't always believe everything you find on the web, even if it comes from the formerly-redoubtable Geoff Shackleford. |

| Who is Geoff Shackleford? |

| can't get in some sort of heat for this legally? wow- nice...real nice. Although I like Phil & Tiger both. |

| I have a couple of comments- BuffaloGolfer- your comment "My larger concern is who would waste his time ( a woman would never do it ) determining the plausability of this image." is typical of someone who has nothing better to say. That's as good as when a golfer loses and sais "there are more important things in life than golf" It's a cop out line. You were the one who visited the blog, if you are going to comment, at least come up with something that does not ruin a discussion. Are you aware that people roll their eyes over your comments and think- "oh yeah, one of these." And why is it that you think a woman would not come up with this? Nothing wrong with being analytical. Talk about annoying. |

| You mean this has to be plauable? Damn, it was funny so who cares if it was plausable. |
