Now this precisely the kind of OPTIMISM I am looking for! On other forums when this question is alluded to some teachers are saying "Well students are A.D.D. they'll never get it." It's frustrating to hear this kind of poor mouthing. I mean come on! We are armed with THE BEST information period bar none in golf! I'm glad that our two FEARLESS LEADERS brimming with confidence are also FEARLESS BELIEVERS in what they teach! Good to see that the brass is willing to EAT THEIR OWN DAWG FOOD!!! I'm in total agreement that Average Joe can be turned into the Swan! Most are out hear trying to break their glass ceiling 90, 80 or 70. At the end of the day you gotta write down a number. Glad that you have enough belief in your info, ability to teach and ultimately BELIEF IN YOUR STUDENT. Cause if the teacher don't believe, how can the student? Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! |

I think the first step would be to have some sort of Strength and Weakness Analysis. The Analysis could be measured on BOTH Shot Making (including chipping/pitching/putting) AND the Integrity of One's Critical Alignments. So we get Playing and the Alignment Baselines. From there figure out where to focus the limited amount of practice time. Then break it down into Full Shots, Pitch, Chip and Putt. Maybe come up with tests to track your progress. So maybe if you can't hit X number of Pitch Shots in a 6 foot circle then you work on the following Y. Or maybe if you can't hit chip shots without bending your Left Wrist you do X (dowel work/impact bag/mop dragging) etc. I would LOVE to hear others thoughts on this . . . Thanks! Bucket |
When You Wish Upon A Star

I address this issue in a soon-to-be-published interview with Australia's largest golf website, www.iseekgolf.com. Stay tuned! |
Two examples of what can happen:
Worst golfer I ever taught, A.D. He could not have possibly broke 113 on a 113 slope course (national mean). He took 47 lessons from October 1990 to April 1991. On a par 70 course, he shot 89, putting poorly. A tennis pro came to me. Brian can you get me to break 80 in 4 months. His lowest score in only about 10 total rounds ever was 98. He took 4 lessons a wek for 4 months and practiced a LOT. He had 5 tries to break 80 to win his bet with a pal. On a tough par-72, 7000 yds., he shot 76 in the third round. It CAN be done. |
The Bottom Line Objective
Quote:
If you can produce a Book/DVD's on the Manzella Process to get people there in 5 years, you will be the richest man in golf. We can talk Bent Plane Lines and Pressure Points all day long, but at the end of the day . . . this is what people WANT! |

The Right Forearm Smash

Homer Kelley always maintained otherwise. And now Brian has presented us with this proof positive. |
