If only it were so easy!!
It's a pity playing golf as well as Hogan or Couples is not as easy as hammering crap.

Look at the LEFT WRIST . . . . as compared to the right wrist of the hammer people.

Back in the Day
Paying my way through college, I worked as a Framer. We didn't use nail guns and when laying pressure treated 2x8 T&G subfloors we used the heaviest Vaughan hammer we could handle. Usually a 27oz.
Over time I found I could drive 16 penny nails pretty well by setting it with one tap and then driving it home with a single blow.
I distinctly remember the feel as not "uncocking" before impact.

Answer the questions Cowgirl. Hammer to the top loaded and ready to strike a nail (or in your case fanger) . . . describe the conditions of your wrist based on Chapter 4 (cocked, uncocked, level, bent, arched, flat, turned, rolled, vertical) . . . . The questions!!!! Focus!!!
