Thank You Sir
Hey Paul!
First of all, I love your videos. Thank you for taking the time to make a website with such a vast number of videos and information to learn from.
Just one question. Why is it that you don’t switch which hand goes in front at the bottom of your swings? Not sure if it’s like that in every video, but I only noticed it in this one.
Anyways, thanks a ton!
Hi Edward,
Thanks for your email and I am glad to hear that you enjoy the website. Well spotted, have just given myself a smack on the wrist. My hands should be alternating on the cross over. Yours in club swinging. Paul
