We then went to the teaching range for some full swings. Just like with Dodger, right on the nuts. Kev showed me a photo from the book about a more direct delivery path to the ball. More success. Then more discussion about accumulators and pressure points. Focus on this and focus on that. The results are just astounding.
I was fortunate enough to be one of the folks who met with Yoda for a full day when he was up here for the PGA. Since that time G.O.L.F. has never been more fun. Kev constantly refers to stuff we learned from Yoda and we build from there. No ego involved; just G.O.L.F. and very clear communication.
I can't wait to see what he'll come up with in the next session.
It's the structure.

I would be the third member of the group Yoda worked with that day at Medina CC. JerryG, KevCarter and I have been working with the book since last winter in the local golf domes. KevCarter enthusiastic study of TGM principles has been amazing. Yoda's visit confirmed a lot of our thoughts, and caused in positive shift in KevC's teaching approach, to which his students have attested.
Personally, I have tried everything from S&T (worked for a little while) to mimicking Yoda's address position (working great right now), all with attention to proper alignments. Kevin has been patiently encouraging me and confirming lots of my thoughts -- I do like compressing that ball - turned into a range addict at times this year.
Thanks for all the help Kev (and the introduction to Yoda - a once in a lifetime experience!) Keep up the great work.
