I used book markers so I could refer back to all the areas I wanted to experiment with and I had fairly good success. After 3-1/2 hours and 300 balls my left forearm was getting really tight. My swing has always been more of a hitting style than a swingers style but I really wanted to try to implement a swingers stroke into my game and I was really excited with some of the results! After watching Tommy's videos he says that the left arm is like a piece a rope and basically is does nothing but hang onto the club. Should my left forearm be tightening up like this? What could I be doing wrong to make this happen? Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks ~ Rich As much as my right in pulling the club. __________________ Yani Tseng, Go! Go! Go! Yani Tseng Did It Again! YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the "LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact. "Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一). The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command". "Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
