Topic: Ask Golf Guru - Golf Instruction / Timing the right hand rotation

You can program it to happen by setting it in your backswing. if you maintain correct alignments through impact it will happen .naturally.

as the resulting (throw out*) force would make it all but impossible to stop.

  • look for thread on centrifugal force it was a long one done to death a couple of years ago.

Carey ,

you have had plenty to read :)

I look forward to doing another profile and will do so shortly.

Nothing personal Styles but what makes you an expert on profilling .

I have been working with Guru and Carey over 2 years thats why i was speaking to Carey.

Styles,

I am asking Carey thank you..

Can you show me where i said i was asking my wife the answer ?

I was in fact asking my wife to reinforce what i already thought nothing more or less at no stage did i change an answer based on what my wife said.

Just think a bit before you jump next time .

gee whiz Craig!

The questionnaire is designed to profile you, not you and your wife!

What Carey has more than likely produced is a great picture of how your marriage is. That is, if you and your wife faced a question, by the sounds of it, together you would have driver traits.

I guess Carey is right on the money again as an analyser would be more inclined to ‘think things through’. However, I would suggest that the fact you responses were partly yours and partly influenced by your wife, your original report was not accurate.

Its better to stay silent and look a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt

Styles,

I had typed out a response to your Post above but i decided not to waste time ..you can flame all you like mate it reflects on one person only.

Carey,

When faced with a problem i don’t “solve” it straight away i think on it and form an opinion Yet when i am stressed i make the decision quickly as i feel i need to at times.

Yes i too would like to resolve this ,when i did the original one if i was unsure i asked my wife as some of those questions made me think on a deeper level .

On one hand i used to enjoy practice for hours and other days i hated hitting 30 balls..

I don’t see a global finance crisis i see people selling shares for less than they are worth ie you make no loss unless you sell.

Craig:
I’m not sure I understand the following and will appreciate your help with that since I want to be as clear as possible:

“Trouble i have found is that i can see no communication in my style as you put it…instructors who know your stuff still cannot “do ” my style so it leads me to ask whats the point ?”

It will help if you can let me know what I said that you are referring to.

I think you may have in mind what I said about using style knowledge in communication. If so, elaborate a little for me if you will.
Thanks,
Carey

Carey,

When a mind requires precision and is fed generalities it switches off.

When a person says thats great do it again but then cannot tell you what you did and your mind has already moved looking for better again only to fall backwards ..what do you do ?

If i did not have my inbuilt ability to handle stress i would be in assylum now or dead after the frustration i have felt at this game.

And the lack of true precision given out by instructors when instruction becomes about a fix .

Carey i was profilled as a strong driver if that is the one and same then so be it.

Trouble i have found is that i can see no communication in my style as you put it…instructors who know your stuff still cannot “do ” my style so it leads me to ask whats the point ?

For all the knowledge i have of golf as an instructor and 30 plus years experience i cannot help me and i have yet to find he who can.

See i was asked a simple question some time ago and i cannot answer it ..a psycologist asked me whats the point why do you do it .

I cannot say for me as that is not me as i am not selfish but at the same time i know it cannot be for others as what i do has no effect on them. so i return to the question.

Whats the point is what i ask before i do anything if i see no point in doing it i dont. simple as that but at the same time i love this game .

Topic: Ask Golf Guru - Golf Instruction / Let's Talk GOLF MACHINE!

possibly is but i can say positively that nothing is permanent to a person who seeks improvement continuosly …2 years ago is just that now is a totally different time in my life and priorities have changed …personality traits have a place but you need to realise people are not static and as they grow what was once important is but a flicker now.

Yes i agree but a snapshot 2 years ago does not reflect me today and i think Guru would agree i am not the same person as i was then.

Not being critical but if i was to seed an area with couch and had 2 days of 30’s followed by a cold snap how much of the seed would survive ?

Jack can you tell me what you do before you take your stance and grip ? or do you take your stance and grip and then align yourself while standing beside the ball ?

Topic: Golf Architecture / Turf?

No doubt there are but ..the next question is how long do you need warmer temps for to get germination from seeded couch ..and can you constantly expect those weather conditions in southern oz…

Sprigging on the other hand will survive and grow in much faster once it gets through the first 2 weeks ..according to vga studies done on this in the mid 90’s.

So in plain english Mr Wishon is saying that a person with a sweep release v a person with a very late snap release will need different shafts.

Topic: Golf Architecture / Augusta National, butchered???

No i said it because the course as it stands is unplayable for an average golfer .And as far from what Mckenzie and Jones envisioned as is humanly possible.
The only reason Augusta national is in the top 100 is because of the wealth and Influence of its membership.
