Lesson With Mike Austin

I'm writing down names of people to avoid - the more I read this thread the more I realize that everybody on it - qualifies!

Mike,

Is this your 'watch' list?

Add me:

How long a minute is, depends on which side of the bathroom door you're on.

I don't think you'll have any trouble having people NOT be around you . . . that will not be a problem at all.

I also like to joke around but the video I posted here might be one of few showing Mike Austin teaching.

To Mike Austin fans this is just like having a video of Homer teaching.

How about giving it a little respect as Mike Austin was in the same crowd bumping heads like Homer. If you get my drift.

Purehitter is right. We've had a nice little 'time-out' -- -- but now let's all return to our seats and the original programming.

Sorry Purehitter...Bucket made me do it! In addition to your contribution I did a youtube search and enjoyed watching Mr. Austin's swing, very much.

Pure- Lighten up. We like to joke around if the thread path is set on ANY topic. We come back to it in time. As for Austin- I see nothing in the clip that hasn't been covered better by Doyle, Tomasello, Lynn Blake or any of our Pro contributors. Im sure Austin followers drool over it but my own personal opinion of it is less than enthusiastic for the above reason.

What about it rocks your world?

The experience I had working with Mike over 14 years is priceless. I am sure it is the same with Lynn and his time with Homer. Mike setting the long drive record of 515 yards is unbelievable with the balls and equipment they had back in the 70’s. Mike talked about applying torque to the handle. This was his secret as Mike put it. His right hand was driving hard and fast through impact. I wish he was still around to debunk the kinetic chain theory nonsense I hear on another forum. I say it is the fall of Rome over there so to speak. I even hear Caésar is now saying you don’t have to point at the plane lines anymore on the back swing. Tour pros don’t he says. He even put up an audio file about it. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I know Homer would not want to hear that.

Pure would not Austin still have snapped the kinetic chain...whatever that is
His right hand may have been driving/accelerating baton twirling but would not the left arm slow down at release?
How does the Caesar of Rome snap his kinetic chain?
