I am dumber then a brick sometimes.
I really messed up my 'swing' by drilling incorrectly without realizing it. I was trying so hard to keep the trail elbow in place and bent that I started pulling my arms in on the backswing. LOL, I think that you can see that my lead arm is bent in the picture above. I lost a lot of distance this way... It is certainly not what Scott teaches and it is not what he demonstrates in the video. I am fairly tall and I have lean build and I think that it is very important for me to get some extension and get the hands far away from the body during the swing. I was all tied up and when I started getting some extension again it really felt good.
I think that I might have been trying to look like Moe who had a much different build... Of course it occurs to me that Moe was probably extending as much as he could during his swing also. It just looks a little different then me. LOL, in more ways the one...
