0:00.0	Every good shot should add up to 100. So 100 is a nice round, even number. Yeah. So you go 50% back, 50% through, right? That would be even back and through. A lot of people go like 80 back and 90 through. That's 170. Or they'll go 70 or 80 back, and then inside they're going, oh, no,-oh. And then they decalided it. They go slow,
0:21.1	and then they have like 10 or 20 or 30 percent through. It's a good question to ask yourself, what did I do on that swing? But here's the way I teach acceleration. How about 45 back? 50 through. Did that swing add up to 100? Yeah, it did. I went back and then I went through. Same with a put, take it back, come through. And they're matched up with a little bit more on the follow-through side. So now you automatically have acceleration without having gone fast, which sucks you into this false idea of power.
