1) You think that Mike Austin has a horrible swing.
I look at this video of his swing, and I think he had a great swing (especially when you look at his swing when he was young - watch the first 22 seconds).
2) You think that he didn't efficiently release PA#4 and I am simply too thunderstruck to respond. The belief that MA doesn't efficiently release PA#4 in the face of the fact that he holds the Guinness world record for the longest drive in competition (515 yards wind-assisted) is a mind-boggling belief that leaves me totally stupefied.

I'm talking about the swing with that device wrapped around his neck . . . . that's a horrible idea. You can't release #4 with that contraption wrassled on you. I know Mike Austin hit it a long way. Most people wouldn't with that stupid thing on their neck though.
