What was it about his action that made you feel that he was better suited to being a hitter? Ted: How many shots a round do you feel you have improved by making your change to hitting. I'll answer both, if I may... I decided to go to hitting because of the feel of angled hinging. I had been taught to swing with angled hinging, which was a disastrous combination. And the thought of a start-up swivel and release swivel made me . Also, the idea of simultaneous release of the power package was interesting, when I had been taught that you had to "keep" clubhead lag. I now create lag. I feel that my present pattern is about 6 to 8 shots better for me than the (so called) swinging that I was being taught. Hitting is not for the faint of heart, though. It takes conscious thought, on every shot, for the rest of your life. It's not like swinging, where you can place it on cruise control. Thank God I met Lynn Blake. I'd still be switting! __________________ Yoda knows...and he taught me! For those less fortunate, Swinging is an option.
