You should always have only one thought in your head while you are swinging, whether it be tempo, weight transfer, straight-left arm, ect. As far as hitting the ball crisp, a smooth swing should be your #1 priority. When you are practicing, you can even count it out. 1...2...3 on the way back 1...2..3 on the way forward. Good luck! Al-

Absolutely not, if you play both sports one will not hinder the other. The mechanics of swinging a baseball bat are very similar to those taught to golfers today and vise-versa. The biggest difference is the angle of attack since the baseball is thrown and the golf ball is stationary. The main thing is, the hardest thing to do, in both hitting baseballs and golf balls is, keeping the eyes on the ball until either the bat or golf club makes contact with the ball. Hope this helps :) LIKE I DON'T MESS UP MY GOLF PLAYING CRICKET(LOL).

Be advised that even though these camcorders are considered "high definition", when the smooth slow record" feature is invoked, the video quality is degraded (and no longer high definition).

Brian Manzella explains this the best at: http://www.brianmanzella.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3390 You have to sign up for the forum, its free (the forum has pictures too). But I can summarize. Alot of people hear that at address you should raise your hands and then bend your wrists straight up. This is WRONG! Try this: Put the club out in front of you parallel to the ground, toe of the club to the sky. Bend your wrists so that the club swings backwards, but stays parallel to the ground with the toe still facing up to the sky. THIS is the correct wrist hinge you should be after. Took me years to find this out and once I did - I went from a 15 handicap to a 6. This is a common misconception in the golf swing.

Play the hook the right way and it could work just as well. Aim the ball slightly more to the left when you hit, at first it will feel unnatural but once you see how your ball moves it will make sense. Plus on doglegs right you will have a natural curve that will really help. I play my hook well but when I want to hit straight I drive with a 4 iron instead of a driver. You get less distance but you get the desired accuracy. I play every week and my average is around 79.
