Well there is drift vs. lift, not the same thing. You will see a lot of serious distance competitors executing a clear lift before the forward stroke. However, this is to a great extent a stylistic thing, and you cannot willy-nilly incorporate a terminal lift into any casting style or stroke and expect improved results. Improper execution or mismatch with the stroke leads to trunking, blown anchors, or both.
