260 is a respectable distance even those who do not look athletic are at the highest level they're technique is correct and creates speed there are different ways to attain powr r for a given player for example snap release does nothing for me power wise instead random sweep with high hand speeds and high turning speed yields my best results for me the key to power is the left hip turning to the left after the axis tilt pulling through the ball also I like a simple thought of turning my snack to the target this gives you a nice powerful feeling of leverage I am built like Hogan skinny and small and routinely drive 320 plus I attribute it completely to my left hip speed in fact the muscle above my hip bone that is responsible for pulling bulges out much more than the right side to the poin t that I thought I had a hernia or something but it is just the muscle from years of pulling to the left clearing the left hip that is where power comes from for me anyway hope this helps
