Warning...

Most players make the huge mistake like I did... is by lowering to the Hands Only plane by Cocking Both Wrists and holding the plane of Both arms Vertical...Both a huge NO-NO!!!

Mac kept telling me my wrists(plural) were too cocked and my arms too vertical...What it looks like and what it is ...two different animals!!!

as- is there a biomechanical advantage to increased waist bend (mac looks at least 45 degrees!) and when you do bend that much how do you determine how far to stand from the ball? also, re: vertical arms being a no-no, it appears that mac's arms are brought in a bit (from the vertical) toward his body (as opposed to reaching out toward the ball) and with a bend to his right elbow - is that what it is? thanks ...
