PS-as I started this thread, I went to practice the parallel hip slide and ballstriking was much better. Is there any physical limitation or misconception that might have prevented me from doing this before? EdZ: I used to be on the elbow plane but have worked to get on the TSP, not sure if there yet, but more right forearm magic should tidy that up. How do higher plane angles get away with some cross line action, is it because there is less Acc#3 and therefore they can get away with more of a hit? Wouldn't think so . . . if your divots are toe deep . . . you ain't doing it right. Video a bunch if you can. Gotta monitor it. Azz on the wall slide it forward. You probably have to keep your butt going down your stance line longer . . . once you stop going forward you got nothing to do but spin or goat hump . . . not very good options unless your name is Mike O. __________________ Aloha Mr. Hand Behold my hands; reach hither thy hand 12 piece bucket View Public Profile Send a private message to 12 piece bucket Find all posts by 12 piece bucket
