Title: The Power Hitter?
Post by: stroh on July 04, 2007, 09:27:58 AM
Seen it?  Tried it?  Like it?  Hate it?

I figure if I'm gonna try to stay ahead of Zoe, and get close to Fuzz, I need some help.

Thoughts?

A weighted driver that you hit balls with.

Why does everybody feel the need to hit it further... I thought everyone on these golf forums hits the ball at least 300 anyway.... ;) ???

Aids like that help players learn the feel of a late -- or at least, a proper -- release.  I remember reading that one of the most common swing flaws was early loss of the wrist cock.

Oddly enough, (contrary to my comments) distance isn't really what I was looking for with this.

Clive pretty much nailed it, along with just getting smooth, and not rushing from the top.

I have a weighted iron club[edit:  had, I don't know where the hell that *fudge*in' thing is.], but I would be interested to have something that I could actually hit a ball with.

Thanks, I'm convinced.  I'll buy one.

Well, not yet.  I have hit one, and I like it.  I prob. will still buy one.  I thought my store credit at Austads was bigger.  I didn't have enough to just buy it, and I can't pull myself to go in and plunk down a buck 60 for the deal.

Even though I know it will help.

Smartpath, however is a different deal.  ;)
