    Well, I made the assumption that the 5-post link restriction was there merely to prevent spam-bots.

    So from the bottom of my heart, if I have broken some cardinal rule....

    TOUGH!

    Welcome Judda, and yes Henno, it's there to counter the spambots, and it seems to work pretty good. Does catch out the odd new member though!!

    I'm no swing guru or anything, but I reckon your centre of gravity needs to be a little lower for better balance and a more powerful swing.

    Btw, the fairway needs some water.

    Looks good to me Judda, and I wish I could swing that good.

    I've already lowered my centre of gravity problem, via Red Rooster Hawaiian Packs and Blue Ribbon ice cream.

    ps. Nice looking dog. Are you going to train it to be a 'leather wedge' ?

    Only problems that I could see:

    - You're a big chance of tonking one over the net
    - The poor dog's going to be in serious trouble if he keeps eating flies like they're schmackos

    Other than that I think it looked pretty good.

    You have a nice swing. One thing that is noticable on the clip is you were coming up on both shots. A formula for solid contact is to keep the left cheek just to the right side of the ball position until the right shoulder touches the chin. It will feel like you are looking down there twice as long as you should. While you are looking down see if you can get a glance of the right knee flexing past your chin. Looking up too early raises the right shoulder prematurely which alters the plane through the critical impact area. Hope this helps.
