Not that I would have changed anything, but we can have you to do a little more.

A good brace and good forward extension is important and that starts with the butt out.

From there we can increase your swing arch like Wie's or Woods.

Long driving is a whole new ball game, but it starts with good fundamentals.

Plus it all comes down to being fitted for the suit and not running down to Walmart to purchase a suit in your size.

Have you found your maxium distance? I do not know, but we can try to increase it.

I will tell you to work on the forearms and to build them up.

If you like to share I would like to hear about your ball flight with the driver and your iiron play.
Working on the forearms may not be needed, my friends already call me popeye. As far as being fitted for a club, I tried that once, it was a 2 1/2 hour drive to nearest launch monitor. after the fitting I told I needed a 10.5 driver with a regular flex shaft. I tried one of those the other day, I near killed a guy three fairways over to the left. LOl !!! That was a waste of money. swing speed with driver 120, swing speed with 3 wood 110, swing speed with 5 iron 92, Driver SMT Encore 6.8 - shaft graffoly blue 48in USGA- xflex, stiff in irons. My irons I hit straight with about 10-12 launch angle. If I hit bad it is a straight push. My driver I hit straight- with lauch angle 20 degrees- also a push if I miss hit. Trying to lower the launch angle to get some roll. Longest drive today 310.
Thanks Bigbo
