Title: cranker/stroker/tweener
Post by: Lane1Redneck on November 23, 2004, 10:34:03 AM

Hello everyone.... Trying to figure out what kind of style I would be....
I know I'm not a cranker.. I don't try and muscle the ball... as for the stroker.. I'm thinking that would best fit my style but I'm not sure what a tweener is...  Please if anyone could better explain this for me.. I would appreciate it..  

I only have a 4 step approach.. ball is relatively waist high.. backswing is about the same level.. on downswing I just let the ball come off my hand fingers  12-6/to 3-9 as I lift towards the ceiling.. ball speed averages around 15 to mid 16's mph...

what category would this put me under... if any...LOL

What are your revs?

Keep in mind, strokers are people like WRW.  Crankers=robert smith.  So if you resemble neither, your likely a tweener.

Well it's really tough to say.

Here's what you should do:  Find bob7's video post, and watch some of the strokers and tweeners.  You can decided much better than us that way.  

Otherwise, i can't actually say without seeing a video of you.

I was checking that out.. kinda what prompted the post.. I would think by watching that I would be more a stroker from watching the releases... It didn't show much for the stroker other then the release of the ball.. Kinda the same as what I do from what I could see...  thank  ak57
