I'm with Bear and find there are lessons to be learned from all this snow this year.
I have found that if I bend at the hips a little more and keep my back straighter rather than rounded, I can shovel much longer with less undesired consequence on the back. It even helps stretch the hamstrings a little and you can throw the snow a little higher and further.
I'm thinking this should pay dividends to the golf swing.

Jerry,
Dig deep and make sure you go Down, Out and Forward to Low Point!

Hey OB - it works
Yeah - feel is good when you have it. At the end of the season I was playing with the gangsome - mis-hit my second on a par 5 - dead behind a stand of pines in the middle of the fairway. One guy gets everyone to come over - "let's watch Kirk get outta this. Another guy says 'tell me exactly what you are going to do'. I said it would be a 2 barrel punch with angle hinge - bunted a gripped down 6 iron over a 4 ft high shrub - under the 6 ft high bottom branches of the pines - with a little cut to about 3 ft from the pin from 95 yds - made the bird. There just might be something to this TGM stuff - there are now 3 guys that I play with that are asking questions about it.
