I felt I was close to my normal swing. I did not swing
that much smoother. but tried to give it more of a lash off the tee at one time. The result was a high hook.
I never even thought of Hitting or punching - even though its probably possible to punch some.
I'd say swingspeeds up to 100 mph is ok, but over that you risk wrecking the clubs or lose a lot of precision.
One thing i liked is that bunkers became MUCH more of a hazard than with modern equipment - bringing strats & course mgmt into play.
And I think that playing hickory every now and then is beneficial to your game. A good hickory player will be smokin' on steel.
