Coach's Corner:Edgey
I thought it unfair that Purist was coaching Burndog so to even things up I have decided to give Edgey some invaluable swing advice that will help him prepare for the big match. Let me explain a few things...
Both the right and left arms have pressure points, and sub-pressure points. The right arm which is PPT 5 (or maybe 4, the left and right arm are 4 and 5, and i always mix up which arm is 4 and which is 5 but it's not overly significant). On the arms there are 3 sub-pressure points. They are in this order 3-is the elbow, 2-is the middle of the tricep, and 1-is the armpit. In order to swing on an inline pattern both arms must maintain some pressure point 4 and 5 at a minimum of 1 and 1 on those respective pressure points. You follow? Pretty simple huh? That being said it isn't necessarily best to keep 4 and 5 at 3 and 3, meaning the higher ppts aren't always the best. It depends on how the 1st 4th accumulators are loaded.
Now it can vary a little bit depending on the type of hinge action, or what type of elbow is being utilized or what the weather is like on the day but for a basic inline pattern which I assume you employ, you need to keep the ppts tight to control rate of closure, assure to keep a consistent baseline of the plane since it makes it more difficult to shift the plane, and it helps the accumulator unload sequence to be more correct.
Now Edgey this is the important part. Read, reread and memorize this post every day and every night before you go to sleep for the next two weeks. I would also suggest printing it out and keeping a copy in your golf bag. Just keep the above simple swing thoughts in your mind over the ball and I guarantee you will shoot the lights out and beat Burndog 10 & 8.
Good luck!
I chose the road less traveled.
Now where the f#ck am I?

Basically what he's trying to say is that you should turn, post and then release. 99% of amateurs don't do this very thing. Watch out for the flying right elbow.

My advice is put the widesoles and lovitts back in the bag if they are not already there. One of your nations greatest hero's Lord Haratio Nelson can be an inspiration for you.
Nelson was noted for his ability to inspire and bring out the best in his men: the 'Nelson touch'. His grasp of strategy and unconventional tactics produced a number of decisive victories. Some aspects of his behaviour were controversial during his lifetime and after: he began a notorious affair with Emma, Lady Hamilton while both were married, which lasted until his death. Also, his actions during the Neapolitan campaign resulted in allegations of excessive brutality. Nelson could at times be vain, insecure and overly anxious for recognition, but he was also zealous, patriotic and dutiful, as well as courageous. He was wounded several times in combat, losing one arm and the sight in one eye. His death at Trafalgar secured his position as one of England's most heroic figures. Numerous monuments, including Nelson's Column in Trafalgar Square, London, have been created in his memory and his legacy remains highly influential.
Maybe you can hide some booby traps (IED"s). Not refering to your better half. You know if BD has shrapnel in his arse he won't be able to make a full turn. Or hire someone to run him over like Shooter Macgowen did in Happy Gilmore. Don't think conventional think out of the box for this match.
But most important keep a stiff upper lip.

I think that is precisely what he should do, GHD, is bring around his Double EE toting wife to caddy for him. I guarantee that would serve as a distraction for me and I wouldn't even care if he beat my arse in golf as long as I got to watch those things shake and jiggle all day.
By the way, Dave, in case you are wondering (and hoping), man-boobs do not have the same effect on me.

Well it helps if you're at least a little computer literate. Playing Eye2's indicates that you're clearly stuck in the 80's.

why would you think this kiwi, just because he has finally hooked his sinclair spectrum zx 48k to the world wide web.
and just because he watches toxic avenger on his betamax (toploader) video.
come to think of it this guy is stuck in the 80s. wasnt he wearing a skinny piano tie in that match against nosh

I bought my first one in 89. It was a 386 DX and top of the line at the time packed with an 80 MB hard drive and about 215 k of memory. It was a powerful Mo Fo!!!
I'll never forget what the guy told me that kind of broke me into computers and tutored me on them for the first year. He said, "Once you buy that machine you'll likely never have to buy another one. That has more storage than you'll ever need."

I'm cloning an external HD in the background now on my mac.. says it will take ten hours.. it's only 786 GIGABYTES, I'll bet it's done in six hours.
My first computer had a 60 megabyte HD. and "extended ram" of 1 mb from the standard 640k. that was 1992. I stayed away from them as long as I could. :-)

You were big time with that extended ram of 1 mb.
Back then, Dave, if you remember, the day you bought your computer, it was already outdated in 2 hours time.
Things have slowed down a bit at least . . . . .
I heard last night that OKC is putting in the paperwork to receive Googles test run for a new internet system that is suppose to be 100 times faster than current DSL run speeds. I'm too far south to get in on that now, but that is where we are all heading in the very near future . . . .

In 1986 I had the Macintosh Computer 125K. It had a floppy drive with no internal hard drive. I think it cost around $2,000 for the computer and printer. The printer took about 50 seconds to print one page. Load runner was a great game. I think the screen was 8 inches wide.

I started with the commador 64. I took a programming class and used it for homework.....what a pig. I've built several PC's since then. The first hard drive I bought I think was a 450MB for $250......Talk about being butt raped.....

Started with C64 ~ 1984, 360K floppy with no HD, it was amazing the quality of the games that were written and ran great on those limited systems. Back then, each game was a "one offf" and programmers had to be creative problem solvers - not module assemblers as is the case now. Oh well, the new stuff is great too, just bulky and lacking elegence.
BTW it was "Lode" Runner.

Anyone here familiar with the Tandy TRS-80? That was my first computer. Had a slot on the side for cartridges (I had a space invaders clone called Space Assault, and Checkers as well) had 16k of memory, good ol' tape drive, this was before hard disks were invented. Text adventure games were the big thing back then. "go north" "open door" "drink juice" - those were the action sequences in the games we had back then. None of this blood and guts and explosions we have now. Times were so simple back then... joysticks had only one button.
Those were the days...

I still think that Pong and Tank are two of the funnest games that two people can play against each other. Joust is the best video game of all time. Donkey Kong Country is pretty good too.

I've been working on accumulating pressure at pp2, working on my release with pf2 and hopefully it doesn't make a mess otherwise I'll be overloading accumulator #3... those are not the sorts of habits you want creeping into your golf game.

I remember when Double Dragon was the ducks nuts. It didn't take us long to figure out a flaw in the fighting system though. The elbow could not be defended against, and could take out any opponent in the game. You could conceivably go through the entire game using nothing but elbows and not take a single bit of damage. Personally I was a showman and preferred the flying kick and the use of the baseball bat to take out enemies. I used to also like to go the sneak attack on my 'partner' in the two player version.

I remember playing Double Dragon for hours over a buddies house while listening to the Joshua Tree, GNR Lies, and LL Cool J's B.A.D. It was the summer between 7th and 8th grade. This 9th grade chick and her friend across the street got a little drunk and showed us their boobs one day...that doesn't really have anything to do with video games, but I thought I'd share.
