Paul bertholy teaching approach revolved a around a primary set of drills with the beginning ones static positions with a weighted pipe and no ball. Does anyone feel this approach can be effective since there really is no dynamics involved just posed positions.
I trained under Paul Bertholy for three days in the summer of 1982 and can personally attest to the value of his work. His concepts are especially effective when coupled with TGM's Mechanical Checklist For All Strokes (12-3-0) and taken through all Twelve Sections of the Stroke (Chapter 8 ).
I personally have memorized the 45 items in the Checklist and go through at least a Section or two (in their entirety) every day. Also, I will go through the entire Stroke in slow motion -- as did Paul -- hitting key checkpoints along the way.
This training is not difficult, and it takes only a very few minutes each day. You don't need to be on the golf course or the practice tee. In fact, you don't even need a Club.
I say without reservation that the discipline of learning and practicing these mission-critical alignments is the 'open sesame' to a lifetime of better Golf.
