YOu being an ex pro boxer, Id tend to think that hitting is right for you. Active arm extension being like a jab. Did you dance around the ring? Wonder if it will relate to your pivot. Maybe boxing is the sport most like golf? Weird thought.

I can see that, a boxers weight towards the toes like a runner, in the direction that you are going, punching. Whereas golf being rotational you need it more centered. But we also need our weight left at impact for most shots. Sort of like taking a jab to your extreme left across your body, with the right shoulder down low close to what you are aiming at (the ball) and then extend right through it. The right shoulder being like a launching pad. Some hitters have more pivot than others, some boxers dance, some drag there back foot around the center of the ring like Norton. Either way they can hurt you or compress the ball.

You know VJ Trolio was an amateur boxer, golden gloves if memory serves me right. Luke packs a punch on the course too. He's lights out long from a pretty steady platform. He'd be a back foot dragger I bet if he was a boxer maybe, although he was a runner in school.

I'm a lover, not a fighter! That's why I carry the .44 magnum with a 7 1/2" barrel. The game's called Ted wins; there's no fighting. Yoda was a little freaked out when he rode in my car for the first time and saw my pea shooter.

This is the only time Ill think of you and Correy Pavin at the same time.

He had a pea shooter according to Ernie. You acknowledge yours. I think they're a little different though.
