Oh, so you aren't "That" Student of Ted's who has the "Gifted Golf Swing". What shall we call you? Brethren.

Plain basic language. Hmm? Will that be consistent with what Ted has already said?

Swing Advice: Stop using your arms and hands to propel the clubhead at the ball. Use your pivot to accelerate the clubshaft longitudinally. Learn its meaning. If you always use your arms and hands you'll forever fight a timing, direction, hook, slice, and trajectory problem. Don't fight centrifugal force. It doesn't need your help, only your cooperation.

Plain English. More effort isn't the solution. It's the cause and problem. The throwout action of centrifugal force is a greater force than any muscle power you can generate or ever will. You'll get control when you harness centrifugal force. The sooner you begin to learn, the sooner you'll develop sound mechanics. (Or become a Hitter)

How long? Well, I keep a spare bottle of Advil in my Golf Bag.

P.S. Hitting the ground is good. Really. Just hit it closer to the ball. At least the club is going down.

One last advice: I started getting 11:00am tee times so I can start drinking by the third hole.
