What was always perplexing to me was the reasoning behind all of the legal disclaimers on packaging. Now, I know.

For evermore, on the back of the packaging for fishing scales, it will read: The manufacturer will not be held responsible for injuries resulting from the measurement of extensor action in a golf stroke.

P.S. I think it should be enough pressure to remove wobble in the power package and kept at a steady effort. I don't think it has to be enough to rip the left arm from the shoulder socket.

Sounds like I could be overdoing it then?.It is difficult to compare after so long Ted,but I remember when you stretched my left arm at address I was suprised, to say the least,at how strong the pull was.Maybe I have just got used to it and am overdoing it..hence the original post.Tell you what -it HURTS when the hook slips on the scale!
