I'm not saying his move is easy on the back, but it is not the same as the 70's reverse C. I've tried it. It is very powerful, but it can lead to spraying the ball.


Thanks HB

Thats a great observation that will help any readers who are going out there to try the tilted, long ball. I remember my 70's swing had a good deal of double anchor and back pain associated with it.

Im really interested in this elevation, extension thing through the shot. I notice a lot of great golfers doing it and my results have been very good with it. For me its real down then up feeling. The camera doesnt show too much head movement, however in the down direction. I like it but how do we separate this from bobbing? (assuming you subscribe to a little down before the up, maybe not)

How about the authors "twist" as in "jump and twist" the ice skaters jump analogy.

Thanks for this, very interesting
