Lots of practice lately-still working on my snake rolls and starting on the left single.
With my Snakes I often Had the feeling of loss of touch in the forward sweep before the back cast.
That causes me to apply more force to try and catch-up-NOT GOOD!
This leads me to go back to my simple back cast RULES.
#1-Always start slow and conserve application of force/ acceleration-The slower the start,the easier it is to maintain a smooth and constant acceleration.
If at the end of the lift half you rod is bent,good luck bending it more,smoothly till the stop in the back cast
#1.5 Start soft-really kinda the same as above but for some people soft registers better than slow.
#2-Always start low and conserve height
If say at the end of the lift you tip is sky high,good luck on making a good back cast-the higher the tip is the shorter the stroke can be and also the more difficult to get that nice upward(d loop shaping)sweep at the end of the back cast.
Rule # 3-It's easier to learn something right than to unlearn something wrong.
Rule 1 is what is killing my snake roll,to much force applied before back cast disrupting a smooth acceleration into the back cast.
Today was a good snake roll day
Tomorrow I'm going to work out my left single.
Hmm,what were those rules again?
Congrats to the Red Shed dynasty as the have a new member!
