Wrongly....

It appears hitting is one of the most underrated golf procedures in history.
And in IMHO uniquely Homer’s. Maybe the Modern Stroke.

I think everyone teaches a Swing procedure, in and out of TGM, although the natural instinct, at least for kids growing up with baseball, is to hit. I never realized how similar the Hit stroke is to batting in baseball until working with my son’s batting this spring. The Hit Stroke “feels” to me like I am driving an inside pitch to the opposite field.
