I can use the Elbow Plane as well as anyone but I don't like the amount of physical effort.

That was fun and well said, Daryl!

As far as energy consumption goes the TSP is probably the more environmental friendly alternative. But EP is the healthier one.

I agree that there is more work involved in EP. But the major part of it is done by the big muscles and hitting from the feet feels really effortless. So I don't mind spending a few calories extra.

I like the fact that I can go by my instinct. I don't try to loosen the grip or anything fancy when I want extra distance. I simply try to hit the ball harder from feet up Same thing basically when I want to take off a few yards, which I do quite often when there's wind on the course.
