Mike, using a Fisher-Price calculator does not quantify "Using precise calculating methods"!!! Just kidding, please don't ban me from Mike O's Golf Emporium and Forum.

Why?
Why do you only work with Wedges and Woods? Something against the iron game? What's a wood? I'd like to get to the bottom of the bucket on these issues (OK, that was bad but it's the best I got right now! Leave me alone!). I'll look up where you work - I'd like to put this Fisher Price Calculator up...... Whoa! Stop! Where is my medication!!!

Resting on our Laurels after 7000 posts?

Since Annika's right arm/Elbow is very definitely bent at the Top of her Stroke, it must be the result of the Straight Left Arm's Checkrein Action (6-B-1-D) despite her Bent Right Arm's attempt to stay straight.

Where is the "catchy" Title to this post ?

Something like:

Stretching the Truth, or Getting a New Leash on Life, or Your Pulling My left Arm, or Pull My Thumb (one for Bucket), or Lending a Helping Hand...

Writing makes a precise man . I once heard someone say.

Yet more proof that amphetamines and Irish whiskey are not a substitute for breakfast.

Nice Example

Thanks for this...it is what I am looking for. I am disappointed that Annika did not use the ONLY term out there for this "feeling" seeings that Pia knows it!

After reading your recent posts, I withdraw my feeble attempt at humor. Carry on .

The first post was for Yoda. I always enjoy the tag lines or titles he puts on all his post. Those alone are worth the price admission. However, he left one post without a title . So...I thought I would help him out.

Or..maybe I was just talking to myself again . Mike O put something in my diet Pepsi and haven't been right since .
