Getting close to having the snow melt and head back to teaching. I can't wait!
I have worked hard on my TGM studies in my off time this winter. All the advice here has been a HUGE help in understanding Mr. Kelley's work. I decided I better take a look at 12-1, even though I am a swinger, I thought.
I figured I should understand the mechanics in case I have students who are hitters. The basic Pattern sounds great, very simple to learn and teach.
I dug out my Address and Set Up video for hitters by Ted Fort. WOW. You guys need to rename that. It not only teaches us the address routine for hitters, but runs through the entire swing. This video will be every bit as helpful to hitters as the Brian Gay video is for everyone who plays. This video takes the mystery out of hitting, and Ted makes it look sooooo simple. Hey Ted, what year did you last miss a fairway? With that solid action, it can't happen very often!
I took what I learned from Ted's video to the dome this morning. WOW, it really is as simple as it looks. What a great way to play G.O.L.F.! One outing as a hitter, and I think I'm hooked. Accumulater #1 Rules!
Just fair warning Ted, please make room for a fat guy in the hitters forum!
Thanks,
Kevin
