hi tj, i am 16 and currently casting 195 yrds if you could give me 1 tip to get pst the 200 mrk wat would it be,

that is a very good distance indeed. you obviously have got a good style. just keep working at it and it will come. there are two things you could look at and they are,

try and make the punch/pull faster. this part of the cast gives the lead its accelleration.

try and bring in a little more body rotation at the start of the cast.be sure not to go too far too soon. take it a little at a time.

if you can get together with pete then it would be very beneficial to you.
