New Its the swing not the force
Find a heavy axe for $20 and invest in some stumps, feet apart, concentrate on hitting the ground beneath the stumps, picture the stumps not there. relax, swing lightly over your head then at veticle peak power on. Used to amuse the locals at the woodpile. Mind yer toes.
thanx,
bill

New Used to do that for gramps.
I've done that, splitting a whole hell of a lot of wood in the process. Had the one-swing chop down to an art.

The problem is, this is a horizontal swing, not a vertical swing, so I can't use gravity (as much) to help. :P
