THE most rewarding experience of my professional life
I have to admit to each of you and to Yoda that the School at OCN was the most rewarding thing that I've done in my professional life. All of the guys that attended made it that way. There was not a single bad apple in the bunch.
I affectionately called one of the guys 'Grumpy', who will remain nameless, because he had such high expectations and was unsatisfied with the smallest of errors. He was a very successful player and striker of the ball before he came to the school and should expect perfection. But, we even got 'Grumpy' to smile, when he felt a true hitting stroke. There were those that had great knowledge, great application, and even a greater will to change. I couldn't have been more impressed with the group.
The breakthroughs were on different levels for different people. I'm sure you'll hear from each of them in the coming days.
Thanks to all those that attended, and thanks to Yoda, my mentor and friend, for allowing me to participate in this amazing experience.

Indeed, it truly was a wonderful experience and I am very grateful to have been a part of it. Thank you Lynn, and Ted and everyone who attended for making it such a unique and positive learning adventure for everyone.
Lynn has that special something, that glimmer in his eye, that shines through in everything he says and does. It was a treat to see him in action, and to see such energy and enthusiasm combined with incredible knowledge.
A wonderful group of people and the best instruction I have ever seen. Amazing to see the spectrum of players and abilities all come away with very positive swing changes, including myself (loading for hitting and trying to swing isn't something I recommend!). Ted has an exceptional eye and was able to get me on track and swinging as well as I ever have.
Thank you!

great swinger
EdZ,
With the stroke you had when you showed up, it didn't take much to get it pure. It's no wonder Yoda wanted you to become the moderator in the swinger's emergency room. You've got better knowledge than most people teaching golf today.
I hope that you'll stick to that beautiful swinging stroke and resist the temptation to spoil it with hitting.
Keep up the good work.
P.S. With EdZ at the school, the average IQ raised 20 points.

and therein you have the versatility of the Machine. Proof also that Yoda and Ted don't overly gravitate to hitting procedures for most as some may have the misconception of
