Good stuff Indacup!! I can't believe the lofts those guys use...

[ezra76]

I watched that on Xmas. Jamie Sadlowski really impressed me. He's not much bigger than me, actually same height just weighs a few lbs. more. I'd like to get some vids of his swing to analyze, see where all that power is coming from.

Awesom Rock!! I'll be transferring these over onto Swingacademy so I can use the analysis and play them back at any speed with manual speed control as well. I'll put the link up when I get it done. Might grab Zuback and a few others if the converter is working fast today, that thing is a weird, think it's based somewhere in Japan or something.

[Rockford35]

No worries. All the guys are up on youtube, even as recently at the 2007 Remax.

4.5* of loft, that's totally what I need to bring my ball flight down!!

Thanks, indacup; it's great to see the specs that these guys use.

[cyberious]

Ez if you really want to get into this PM me. I have a matched set of 4*, 5*, 6*, and 7* of SMT02 heads that I'll cut you a deal on. I did this for a while and hurt myself. The guys are great but are really huge Jay (Jason Zuback) is 5'10" but benches like 600 pounds most guys are 6'5". Jay swings at 160 + mph at 60% to 70%. I had to swing out of my shoes to get in the 130 mph range. Nice bunch of guys but the are monster hitters. After swinging out of my shoes to get that and hurting myself and spending 2 plus years rehabing myself I sing about 107 mph.

Zuback benches 600? Are they testing these guys???

[SilverUberXeno]

I don't think he could clap his hands if his arms were big enough to bench 600 x_x

That's not a real human being, is it? His pee-pee must be the size of a pea-pea.

Yup he is real, I think he was on the discovery or learnging channel on a big story on steroids and this guy Greg Valentino was a huge steroid dealer and user obviously.

Until he had to use 50cc syringes to remove the fluid the drugs were dispercing, he ended up having to get them lumps surgically removed.

I think I've seen this guy in a People magazine freak show section. Before he hit the roids he was actually a pretty bot with a good physique, but the roids aged him about ten years in less than 2 and made him look butt ugly.

As for Zuback, I've seen photos of him as his career has progressed, and if he aint on roids, I'm not here. He was always fairly stocky, but now he is ridiculous and obviously takes alot of roids. Still think the 600 pound bench is an exaggeration, that is in the realms of serious power lifters only.

I think there would be a few guys on the long drive tour using. I don't think they would have a drug testing policy as it isn't a real sport as such, more of a sideshow with similar credibility to professional wrestling.
