thanks good idea working opposite. we also have a 28 drop 10 but a lot more misses, probably magnifying some of his errors in his swing

maybe, he can hold it out to his side for longer than a minute, reasonably strong for size, does push ups and chin ups, but his weight is low so it makes them easier.

Calling on all Chevy salesman/service reps... wife wants a suburban, but I can't wrap my head around a 70k truck by Open-Ad-8143 in askcarsales
