do you teach a stationary head (an essential) to all new students?
a simple question....
if "yes"...then you have stayed true to Homer and his desires...
if "no" then you're not staying the course......
you either are or you aren't...as a site admin from LBG stated last week...
is this a catch 22 situation for you, lynn?....brian has already stated that he doesn't......
how about you?......answer as haughtily as you care....
and as far as the members of this forum who are just so shocked at my behavior.....give me a break.....i would much rather someone who speaks his mind rather than someone who talks out of the side of his mouth....
and yes, lynn and ted...if the shoe fits...then wear it
Ben Doyle, Lynn Blake and myself Brian Manzella, along with assistance from Ted Fort and Mike Finney, did a golf school at Canton, Georgia.
It was a success.
The reason I say this, is I have talked to almost every attendee and they all loved it.
The only complaint was perhaps there was TOO MUCH good information.
It was MY GOAL for the school to show the "Golfing Machine" world and the "Golf World," that we could all coexist and the students would all learn.
The Golfing Machine is a SYSTEM that explains ALL methods. There were three different methods being employed at Canton.
If you asked Lynn or Ted, or Mike, or Ben, or I how we did at the school (I am talking individually) I think we would all say very good.
It was professionally videotaped and the video will be released soon. I can't wait, because there will be many discussions about what is on the video. I will stay out of them on this site, though.
And here is why:
Trust me, Ben disagrees with some of what I said at Canton and some of what Lynn did. Lynn disagrees with some of what I said at Canton and some of what Ben did.
I personally didn't mind hardly ANY of what was said, but watching other teachers teach gives me an upset stomach. I always feel like they are teaching in slow-motion.
I'm sure when and if the other teachers (except Mike, who is used to me) watched me teach, I drove THEM crazy.
So, what's the point?
The point is that everyone has their opinion, and people see things differently.
Lynn has a site here and he deserves to put whatever spin on things he pleases.
I have plenty on my plate now, and when my new site is up very soon, I will have even more.
Me, Tom Bartlett and Mike Finney are all very passionate about golf and G.O.L.F., so is Lynn and Ted and for sure, so is Ben.
So The Manzella Golf Academy will continue to believe we have the answers and so will Lynn Blake Golf.
I wouldn't take a lesson from anyone who didn't think they did.
So, I am trying to get the heck out of here and give Lynn some peace and quiet.
Hit 'em straight,
Brian Manzella, PGA, G.S.E.D.

The golf forums always get a bit testy in the winter. And Martee, if you're lurking, why the @#!!@%!! did we move to North Carolina? You call this year round golfin' weather?

Well it is a bit wet but I did play yesterday and planning on playing tomorrow. Worst case is I will break down and buy a rain suit or umbrella (my last one dried rotted in the desert(.
The pivot is the most important thing in my swing right now. When I do it right I feel effortless and the ball flies. Aside from the obvious showboating/arguing, I appreciate this thread. I used to have a huge sway....I just didn't know it, cause someone taught it to me as the right way. Now I feel like a spinning top who spins in place....TGM is the truth in G.O.L.F. Thanks Homer!
