[12 piece bucket]

Guys - I think alot of interesting detail has come out of this thread - thanks!

To recap :- right arm bend should be proportional to the shot in hand based on : right shoulder position, ball position, club selection ...(add in as required) BUT too much right elbow bend at impact can be a problem (rare in amateurs) but can arise from too much lean back..? Fair summary?? Correct please if errors.

But I think that I should have put in a "2-R" type paragraph...a disclaimer....the video IMO - shows a young pro who is approaching some precision alignments which certainly rival anyone of her tours (LPGA and Japanese Ladies - not sure of the acronym!) ...my headline was not meant to be a direct challenge to Hogan...just a teaser to get some looks!

Could it be better?...yes...is it better than the other women's swings that I posted youtube links to?...IMO...yes...but then there was a reason why Hogan kept practising after he retired...fun and also getting even better..."perfection is the journey not the destination..." (made that up as far as I know but sounds so cheesy it must be a quote from somewhere)

Re. "Mr Hogan" etc..."Mr" Bucket stay calm - please note I always use "Mr" when I am serving in my capacity as a Medic to a patient...(in this case venereologist but we won't go there...or at least that is what I told 12PB - "don't go there!!!" I advised )....but with sports heroes I am OK with surname or first name...Tiger, Jack, Bradman (I'm english so I won't say "The Don"...scored too many runs against us to be that friendly)...Botham (or Beefy) ...Gazza...Cloughie...etc...no less respectful...I love the guy ( 3 copies of "Power Golf", 1 "modern Fundamentals"...all the biographies...DVDs...(including "Follow the Sun") ...even shelled out for "Maximum Golf"...to see if John Schlee got the real inside story!!!...got at least one club from every iron set Hogan produced from 1959 - 1976....just to see how his brain was working when it came to club design)... I could go on...I am a Hogan nut!!!

But less of my symptoms...how is that rash Bucket-man!

OK . . . I took your bait hook line and sinker huh? I gotta think there are swings as good as this chick's on the LPGA tour though.
