great athlete, many considerations

Great stuff Luke, he must be pretty excited about his game these days.

I guess its Geometry and Physics again, no magic pill.

Right arm throw, so he's hitting despite being left handed, interesting. Im fascinated by the Throws. They seem like a missing ingredient or component in a lot of people motions.

Thanks for sharing this with us.

I've used the Right Arm Throw with many students. But, I've found it very useful for those that are playing on the wrong side of the ball. Even if I have no intention for them to Hit in the future, I find it helpful in the development of the stroke.

Swinging doesn't mean that the trail arm gets to wither on the vine. It drives me crazy to hear teachers say to "take the right side out of it." If that worked, you'd be able to hit a ball the same distance with or without the Right Arm. Comments like those make my job recession proof. It doesn't hurt to have people like Richard playing golf with those that he hasn't seen in a couple of years. The wow factor never hurts the referral business. And, you're right. He's so excited about his game that it's hard for him to hide it.

Hall of Fame post for Hitters or Swingers. Thanks for this insight.

We had to take another picture. Richard's doing things that I can't do. His speeds are unreal, so we had to take another picture. In case you think your eyes are fooling you, it’s a 119 mph 5 iron. I wish you could hear the sound.

Ted,

Was he with us at Cuscowilla?

He was there. At that time, he was the one laying sod with the PW.

At that speed you can get that sound with silly-putty.

How far and How straight?

The 5 iron was flying well over 200 yards and the 8 iron was flying somewhere around 170 yards. He still has the occasional OTT, pull. But, most are very straight.

122 mph is the fastest Richard has ever achieved with a driver. 84 mph to 122 mph is the most change that I've ever seen. He continues to amaze me.
