Question from a new guy....
Is it better to be a hitter than a swinger? From the posts I havre read on a couple boards, eveyone (well, lots of people) seems to be working on hitting. Is hitting a more accurate and/or more powerful stroke? Definately interested in hearing from some TGM folks in "the know"  TIA for any feedback. |

Just in case jdtoyou doesn't have the book, here are the last four sentences on page VII:
"If strong--hit. If quick--swing. If both--do either. Or both."
[/i]

Well, I feel like I can do both fairly comfortably so I guess I need to figure out what those sentences really mean. |

If you don't have the book....my first suggestion is to buy it, it will be one of the best $20 you will ever spend.
Hinge action and Trajectory become another factor....Horizontal Hinge is a natural hinging action for swingers and Angled Hinging is a natural hinging action for hitters....that's one of main reasons to become both a hitter and swinger....

Hmmm....interesting. I have sen many people posting seeming to concentrate on one or the other, but I would think both is best. It will be interesting to find out more. |

See Mickey Wright, Hogan, Tiger.
And Tom's this weekend - got the 'swing' back in his motion. Doing - not trying. Brilliant stuff!
