About two years ago I was getting ready for a local tourney and distance competition. I was practicing with another player who could throw considerably farther than I could (at the time 300-325 backhand). During practice I pulled a muscle in my lower back. Intead of doing the right thing and letting it heal, I went ahead and played the tourney the next day. I of course had no drive, and actually ended up giving myself a habit of dropping my shoulder (to stop pain in my back) on my pull-through.
I have watched myself on video and I literally almost hit the ground on my pulls. Of course this has lead to a dramatic decrease in distance due to the extreme hyzer release, and the lack of pull-through speed.
I have tried all I know short of a coma to make my body forget this motion and throw right again. I am now only throwing 180-240 feet backhand, and the only good thing that has come of this is me learning to throw more forehand.
Does anyone have any ideas of what I should do to get my form back?
