Right you are, Howard.
As a person, Scott Dunlap is all that you say. As a golfer, I've got a little story to tell . . .
When we first got started last fall, I held up my right forefinger and used my left to point to the first joint (the #3 Pressure Point). I asked him if, from the top through release, he was aware of any pressure 'there'.
"No," he said, "not particularly."
Then, I took hold of his own right hand and held it to his attention: the first phalanx of the forefinger was a solid callus.
"Uh, Scott . . . can we agree there has been some pressure here?"
Five hours later (including interim time in the short game area and on the putting green), Scott smashed another long, straight drive and then turned to me and said:
"I think we're done."
"Done?"
"Yeah, take a look," said he, extending his hand and showing me his #3 Pressure Point.
Congrats to Scott from Drew. He is a class guy with a classy golf swing. Glad Yoda could help him along towards reaching his potential. We will be looking for more great stuff in the near future.
