I have already told you,you are too hostile for a rational exchange of views.

You have never mentioned what a good grip is.

How am I hostile by asking you a simple question? If you say someone should have a good grip then I can assume you can describe what a good grip is.

Of course I can but you should know this and not be asking.

Thank you for making the decision to just ban you permanently so easy.

It takes a lot - and I do mean A LOT - to earn a ban here. Members disagree with me all the time on how long it takes to earn a ban.

Congratulations @freedrop - you just made a lot of people very happy.

This whole thing has been so entertaining/polarizing...and somewhat sad.  The old saying about watching a train wreck. Wish we knew the real deal with this guy. Is he mentally handicapped in some way (not being derogatory)? Is he a lonely kid who's parents don't pay attention and he just poses as an "old guy?" Seems he was attempting to space his incoherent posts with regurgitated semi-sensical posts that contradicted everything he's said before. The one a few back regarding NOT trying to what "pros say the feel", when just a week ago he was spouting that exact type of context as gospel. LOL.

Ahhh...the days of the Interwebs. What a beautiful time to be alive.

Probably from Toronto. :w00t: I dunno why that guy irritated me so much more than our usual trolls. There was a "I know you are but what am I?" vibe about him. It just screamed "punch me in the face". I think he might have been Brad Marchand.

I read through some of the threads about Patrick, bomber an and freedrop. I just about fell out of my chair laughing at some of them. I honestly hope Patrick57 is a troll who was making stuff up because I'd hate to think that someone really acted like that. Whoever posted that Patrick57 looks like he made a bowel movement in his swing analysis has brightened up a very slow day for me.

I know. I might have gone a bit too far in trying to denounce freedrop, but I kinda couldn't stand by and let him just keep spamming his idiocy.

If Marchand wore a Habs uniform, you would love him like a brother.

Not true. I couldn't stand Maxime Lapierre when he was a Hab and I would feel the same about Rat Face Marchand. Now Lurch OTOH I would stopping hating instantly if he wore a HABS uni. That guy is the epitome of the quintessential power forward, however as long as he is clad in the piss and poop stain colours of the Booins he is, by definition, a jerk. :-D

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
