Wayne D Swing Analysis: Working on Getting Rid of my Throw Release

By Wayne D | Videos , Videos: Swing Analysis

It has been a year and a half since I had the two discs above my previous (1986) two level fusion fused (that makes four for the math impaired) and I am getting closer to being able to compete again against senior club professionals. I have come to terms with not being able to wind up in the backswing like I might wish to, but my takeaway is now consistently good, and my hip depth has improved as well.
