This question presumes the person is reasonably fit and flexible, no glaring weaknesses. Is swinging more about speed and hitting about power? Is hitting more like training a baseball player to increase their bat speed? If this question has already been answered I would be grateful if someone could direct me. Thanks, Matt __________________ "In my experience, if you stay with the essentials you WILL build a repeatable swing undoubtedly. If you can master the Imperatives you have a champion" (Vikram). The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts) mrodock View Public Profile Send a private message to mrodock Find all posts by mrodock
