Amazing, I hit most everything dead flush. I will know tomorrow if my back will handle what did, but until then I am very happy.

While we're on the subject of 'bad legs,'
Fred, you might want to check into the Hitter's Emergency Room for a visit with
Dr. Fort.
The last time I was in his office in The Swamp, he was working with a patient who was definitely making strong use of his Right Forearm and his 'launchng pad' Right Shoulder. His Driver Shots were streaking into the morning mist and carrying a good 230 yards or so, maybe more. Everything looked great except that the patient appeared a bit stiff-legged. I didn't say anything though, because he was definitely getting the job done.
Glad I kept my mouth shut about the legs, because I soon learned the problem...
He had none.
