Sick of Hacking? A Chat with Lynn Blake

[Yoda]

We may be down below the equator, a long way from the Swamp and most of all of you LB readers but its great to be in magic company from afar.

Literally thousands of people have read this article. I loved it because it was written in simple English yet the concepts are heard clear as a bell.

Hmm, now we have lots of people asking where the heck do we learn such a concise way to swing?

Today I had a 73 year old retired primary school teacher for his first lesson. Concepts first leads to easier doing. And what's more he did it better than he had for 30 years. Makes living worthwhile.

Score one for the TGM worldwide community!

Thanks for making this interview happen, Paul. I enjoyed the process and look forward to meeting you personally in the not too distant future.

Really great article Yoda. So refreshing and plain english. I have saved it for rereading and will send it to my buddies wanting to improve. LBG is a great place to be.

Thanks, plgolfer. The interview was fun to do, and we at LBG enjoy this place as much (if not more) than anybody!

Awesome summary. Not bad for a 900 year old green guy.

Though there have been various discussions, there are no definite plans as yet. But, who knows, maybe sometime next year!

Now you have me excited...time to start putting the money in the jar...if this opportunity comes up I definately don't want to miss it!

Yoda,

Awesome article! However, the following quote kinda confused me....

"Meanwhile, the left wrist remains perpendicular to the ground. It appears to roll through impact, but it is not independently twisted. Because the left wrist does not swivel – again, it simply remains perpendicular to the ground – the clubface closes uniformly. It does not over-roll and, and unless otherwise intended, it does not lay back."

I'm having trouble understanding how the FLW stays perpendicular just prior to and through impact. I thought perpendicular ment at 90* angles?

It is perpendicular -to the ground

The dowel image shows a downward angle aiming behind the ball.
Shouldn't it be in front of the ball at low point?

Yes, Scott, it should. But this photo illustrates a dowel near Impact, i.e., it has not yet reached low point.

Good Interview. Tough group.
