Brian,
You once wrote the following:
"Anti-Unitas Right Arm at the Top - At 45 years old, I can bench press about 100lbs., but I can still throw an Football nearly 50 yards. Studying the proper throwing mechanics of the great QB's when I was younger, I would up with a near flawless footabll throwing motion. Mike Finney, who can throw a football as far a I can, can throw a golf ball an obscene distance. One day, I'll have to post up both motions. Trust me, neither of us can generate this much force and speed from some funky-knuckle bent up right arm position. Make your right arm look more like Johnny U and less like Vince Young at the top."
I think I had another "a-ha" moment yesterday on the course when I tried to implement this in my game. I found that ball contact and distance was significantly improved(I actually had my first eagle of the year). My question is will this position feel like "flying elbow" to someone like myself who thought proper right elbow position was to have it tucked into the ribs? I guess pop instruction over the years had believing this was the proper position so I kinda always had it in my game. The J.U. position felt really good cause I always felt I didn't enough "up" in my swing and this image really helped me with that.
