I agree too. Getting the mechanics of a good swing is the primary way of hitting a golf ball further. I am a martial artist and much of the same principles of it transfer to golf well. I was an avid weight trainer over the years and realize that strength without technique and speed will not reap optimal results. Golf being my new sport, has made me understand the value of technique and flexibility more than before. I am now currently stretching more and working on technique with good results. Ball is going further with increased swing/ball speed.
