***UPDATE VIDEO 11/2018***
Really quick and short update video. Was out yesterday on the ball machine and shot some video to see how things are progressing. As mentioned below in the original post, I have a natural swing that is very similar to Wawrinka's swing so I like ot use him as a template for improvements I can make. So you'll see a short vid of Stan first, then a few strokes from my practice. Things I am still working on are same as below.
***Original Post****
With some shoulder and range of motion stuff I got going, I have been trying to find various arm-bent forehand players I can use for comparison, and Wawrkina is one of the top I found. So trying to do some comparisons for fun to see what tweaks I can make that will help with mechanics and such.
First is an overlay
Then just a side-by-side
Stuff I am working on.
So as far off as I thought I was, video has actually been good to see I am generally swinging decent. Great tool for sure.

Stuff I am working on.
- Need to improve balance and stance.
- Would like to get the racquet down to load more, but I am still on the fence for that.
- Need to improve shoulder rotation.
- With shoulder rotation I should be able to open more towards the net - hips and nips to the next.
