Check these guys out.......they all have a similar motion and great pivots to my golfers eye.

Would the equivalent for us be to just smash the clubhead into and right on through the aiming point ....... as if the shaft would snap in the process? I dunno but I bet it has something to do with the brain and the hands. Mike O. probably has some good stuff on this sort of thing....
it is interesting for sure, it says a couple of things to me

1) they are feeling the weight of the axehead & responding to that with the intention of applying maximum force to impact
2) as you say they are into aiming point but imo aren't likely to be consciously considering plane lines, shaft alignments etc they are just doing - there could be something for a lot of us in that thought 'more doing less thinking'

that said, no doubt they train for this stuff & there might well be coaches who have analysed their stroke & identified optimum arm/wrist/shaft angles etc

That's a lot of "white" pants and a lot of "Right Arm" Swinging.

I had to look it up: http://www.usaxemen.com/usaa/rules.shtml

Quote:
DRESS CODE:
To increase the professional appearance of lumberjack contests in the United States the following dress code is recommended. Contestants should wear long pants, not shorts, when competing. These pants should be a solid color such as black or white (not denim colored blue jeans or sweat pants). Black pants have become traditional in the US, while competitors in Australia and New Zealand are required to wear solid white pants. All competitors should also be required to wear a shirt or singlet when competing. It should be noted that, as sponsorship of the competitors increases, it is becoming increasingly problematic for contest organizers to require the wearing of specific, contest provided shirts. The USAA now recommends that the wearing of contest provided shirts be optional for each competitor.

That's a line out of Mike O's latest stab at an autobiographical country-techno-disco-polka song . . . . look for him on Idol next season . . . after the operation of course.

I think you're right.......It looks a little San Francisco-ish to me. Country-techno-disco-polka. I thought he already had the operation?
