A week or so ago I posted "did you ever lose your swing."
Well, did you ever get it back better than before when it returned?
As someone predicted it might -- it can come back even better, and it did.

The remedy was mostly in balance and maintaining spine angle. The tops, fats and shanks disappeared once I figured it out, with a lot of help from this site, and Joe Laurentino's book, and a few other resources. Plus a fair amount of time working on it.

Today was just one of several good days that have followed. In fact it was one of the best contact days I've ever had.

Here are some of the pics I took of the contact tape from half of today's slow 40-ball lunchtime bucket, hitting off the mat. 7i and 8i. Didn't bother to tape the LW but that was working too.

The ball was flying and the moderate draw stroke was back. Nothing off the toe. Wind aided 7i was rolling out to 175 sometimes.

I was wishing I could play a round, making contact like this. The Rac MBs felt exceptionally sweet today. Just a few slightly thin, but most felt pure or close to it.

Well, I guess it isn't always going to be this way — swings and things can turn weird in a hurry — so might as well enjoy it while it lasts.

I thought I found a great swing a year ago and then I took a 5 month break. Practiced for about a month and a half and now I'm way more satisfied with the flow of my swing. So much that I just swing whenever I see my clubs in the living room. LOL.

    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
