Just ordered...

Your still miles in front of me.

tell me i can take it



i have cider

I'm impressed!! i really need to go get some lessons....me thinks a trip to bournemouth way to see crack off colin is in order lol

Just watched on You tube buddy.

i have a cider in my hand as i type this.
you have one of my problems. as soon as the lead starts to swing back towards you, you are into the cast and turning and hitting it. i bet it feels really light because there is nothing to hit.
wait till the lead swings back past you, wait even longer to allow the lead to swing up and round and then turn and hit up.
it will be quite a shock because it will seem really heavy because you are compressing the rod and feeling the lead swinging on a wider arc.

thats enough for now.

keep your right arm straight and look up. pull in with the left hand.

now thats enough

Enjoy!!!

Thanks brad.I know im turning too early but it feels like an age when your doing it and on film its over in a flash. ill also find a field with less grass as digging holes in this one was nt easy!!

John can you remember where the thread is with how to rig up a hockey ball?

I still OTG, want to make sure that is right before I go for pendulum again!

Easy, get your ball drill a hole through the middle, take a piece of wire (i use galv fencing) thread on a swivel fold wire in half push through ball ,bend back round and twist round the top where the wire enters the hole clip to leader and bingo. or say john could i borrow yours?

john.......could I borrow yours......please!

when?

Just spluttered my tea over the keyboard!

Have to get out and blast them one evening buddy, got that P2 to try as well.

wheres the feild you're using? i'm looking for a feild to practice in

martinstown just outside dorch. you got to be careful as the farmer keeps cows in it, sometimes.

Thinking about it i know of loads around bere regis. big flat and empty for most ot the year.

that sounds better to me! not so far to go!! just knowing who to ask for permission........

i dont bother normally(if you explain your doing no dammage to crops or leaving anything bad for the animals there pretty cool, when you get caught) but i do know a few farmers ill have an ask about next time im over there.

spot on brad the only thing i would add is the left arm on the finish is LAZY need to pull hard with the left as you punch with the right.
