learing how and when to swivel

[Yoda]

What's the process for the man with a real job and a real life? Hold on I'm on the internet everynight like little G.O.L.F. school girl . . . scratch the real life part.

Ahh, Bucket.

Methinks thou doest protest too much!

In the world of Cyber-Golf Posting...

You reign!

My from-the-hip stat?

A +6...minimum!

Thank you for writing, Weightshift. As we all know, Golf is the most challenging game of all, and it always thrills me to learn that I've been able to help a fellow pilgrim along the way.

Speaking of writing...I know I've been doing less of it lately, but I promise it is not from the lack of 'want to.' I read everything you guys post, but time to do much of my own has been very limited. And that includes holidays and weekends. For example, last Memorial Day I spent the three-day weekend helping a junior golfer in Las Vegas. The reward? He shot a 72 to qualify for a major American Junior Golf Association event and then a 68 -- a personal competitive best -- in the first round. From there, I headed straight off to the Barclays Classic Golf Academy and the week at Westchester C.C.

Last weekend, I had a wonderful time working with a determined young couple who made the trek to The Swamp from Illinois. Great stuff. The next three days, including the July 4th holiday, were spent with Meghna Bal, a budding junior champion from India -- Thanks Vik! -- who will be competing this month in the Callaway Junior World Golf Championship (at Torrey Pines in San Diego, California) and the USGA Girls' Junior (at Carmel CC in Charlotte, North Carolina). As I waved good-bye to her and her father yesterday in the mid-afternoon, I simultaneously waved 'hello' to one of my local students, an Atlanta real estate developer who was a 10 in March (at a very tough Atlanta National Golf Club) and who is now a 5. Today I had the continuing privilege of working with Brian Watts, 13-time winner in Japan and runner-up in the 1998 British Open.

So, everybody just keep on writin' and I'll keep on readin' and chiming in when I can. I do have some video ideas I want to get up before I head overseas in August. Stay tuned!

you can swivel with a flat left wrist and still fade the ball. The swivel isn't causing the hook, something else is.

For years I helped money grow money.

Now -- in addition to the above -- I help people grow people.

The universal principle of compounding abides, but for me...

People growing people is better.
