Hi Coophitter,

Welcome to the forum!

I'm really interested in your experience with Tom Tomasello. I'm not sure if you have seen them, but there are a bunch of videos of Tom on this site in the Gallery section, which have certainly been helpful to me, and I'm sure to others here.

I'd be keen to hear details on the procedure Tom taught you. If you don't mind, a couple of questions I haven't really figured out from watching the videos mentioned above.

(1) In some of his videos (The 'Australian' series) Tom talks about the left hip pulling behind and the pivot not stopping through the shot. But in others (The 'Myrtle Beach' series)he seems to suggest a much more quiet body - more as if the hips get somewhat open and then are pulled to the finish (facing the target) by the momentum of the arms. Which of these (if either) were you taught?

(2) Did Tom teach you a longitudinal pull of the clubshaft from the top/end. Again, I think this is explicit in the 'Australian' series, but less so in the 'Myrtle Beach' series?

Any help you could offer, or any other insights, would be much appreciated!

Kind regards,
Chris
