This is very true. I'm too serious all of the time. I'm narrow minded and generally too argumentative.

I gather from reading your posts, that you're out-going, level headed, friendly and generally pleasant to be around. That's rare.

Ask the kids I teach. I am "Mr. Sunshine." I'm the teacher they call when another teacher's getting their ass kicked by some kid or looks like they are about to, that's me, "Mr. Sunshine." That's why I have torn tissue in both knees and numerous aches and pains after six years at my school.


What I don't get is someone giving out good golfing advice and someone else trying to confuse the issue. I mean, when you give advice Daryl, or Kevin, or OB or Jerry or anyone else, esp. Yoda, we can go down the street to the range and try it. And when I do that and screw it up, I look at a video or 10, and use the search function so I can synch-up with the tremendous insights offered here and in TGM. My own GSEB, throws away comments based on TGM that other people could build teaching careers with. After nine lessons, I am just starting to understand lesson three.

For a person like Planetracer to start with EA is tremendous. And Daryl, your explanation of learning EA was great, imho.

Serious is fine. Dumb as a rock but willing to learn (thinking of golf), like me is understandable, but not knowing and not wanting others to go forward is my definition of a terrible fate and unhelpful.
