YODA, you are the GREATEST!!!

Thank You,

Thanks for posting, Kevin. The Golf Stroke is a complex, athletic motion that can be made a whole lot simpler than most people realize. That is what you learned in our session at Medinah, and that is the way it is.

Again, I say . . .

If you can walk and swing your arms from side to side (in perfect timing with your 'walking' motion), you can learn to swing a golf club the same way. In doing so, you can learn to swing it the the same way the pros do -- the same way they learned to do it as kids. You won't hit the ball as far as they do -- nor as straight -- but you will hit it with the same authority, and you will begin to post scores you heretofore only imagined.

You will wake up every morning and know that you are 'doing it right', and that you deserve the lower scores you now are producing. You will have become not just a golfer, but a player.

And that's a good thing.
