I want to say thanks for all the advice given on this thread. I think my whole problem was throttle. My plane has a redicolous amount of power 21.5lb BME 110 28x10 Mejzlik. I fly my level lines at around 1/3 throttle. I started gradually applying throttle on the wind corrected uplines to about 3/4 throttle. Then I would gradually reduce throttle to around 1/8th just before it stopped moving up I would take out the crab(headwind) and give full rudder while reducing throttle to 3 or 4 clicks above idle, releasing 1/2 the rudder when the plane was 1/2 way through the rotation and releasing the other 1/2 rudder along with the 3 or 4 clicks of throttle on the downline. I was able to nail 24 hammers in a row. Once again thanks.
