Can I say that I am a Swinger Synchronized Hitter? Where I have an open club face at the top, I drag load, I have quite a big swing arc. BUT, I thrust my right elbow at impact, rather then using the CF to do it.

Thanks

Oz,
I would say you are either a swinger or hitter - not both. Though I do know where you are going with it. Keep in mind, clubface orientation at the top, thrusting the right elbow, etc do not define hitting/swinging.

Lets say you drag load. You bend the shaft lengthwise - then maintain that til impact...if you feel like your thrusting your right elbow towards impact, it doesnt negate the fact that you drag loaded it and maintained it.

If you drag load - and do not manipulate CF, your shaft will lose it load and you will not compress the ball - particularly if you do it before the clubhead is outside the arc of the hands....

Just my take. Sometimes feel is not real....
