I look like George Knudson in my yard........if only I could look that way in the presence of a ball. I have hundreds of video examples to prove it. Pathetic though they are. Homers advice , obtuse though it was, is very practical. Cheers. Yeah OB, couldn't agree more - that was my thought behind the proviso. I first discovered TGM and G.O.L.F. at ISeekGolf.com in Australia (my home). And what I discovered was wonderful. A terminology that was so much more precise. Some clear imperitives and why they are so important. And lots of information about how there are many many ways to hit a golf ball and the only difference between them is that some are generally more effective at lowering your score than others (if you get what I mean). I really like the concept of learning feel from mechanics and then repeating the feel to create the mechanics. But I found that it took me a lot of time, and that it was very easy to lose it again. And I struggle for the time. I also am not a natural when it comes to golf. I probably played my first game at 12. I'm now 38. It took me until I was about 26 to break 100. Then after going to the range and getting lessons I finally broke 90 about 6 years ago. And I've plateau'd since then. When bioengine first introduced me to what he did I was wary, because lets face it there is barely a web site you can get on to these days that doesn't have an ad saying "This is the secret to golf". But I asked lots of questions and he showed me what he did on a web conference. And where it spoke to me is that it said there is an optimal way for your body to work to swing a tool hard - golf club, tennis racquet, baseball bat, axe, whatever. There are ways that consistently deliver power in a way that moves the ball the way you want it to. And I thought that this was at least partly a reason why some people are just good at sports - because they have a good kinetic link. You know, there are people who go out and their first round they hit 95. So I know that I am not one of those people. Never been a natural at any sport. Golf was no exception (as you can see from my stats above). So here is someone saying they can analyse my movement patterns AND give me specific exercises to improve mine. And they are working. I don't know why. Some of them are, as bioengine calls them "silly little exercises". But today I completed them in about 25 minutes. I should do them 3 times a week, but I generally only do them twice. And three days ago I hit 9 out of 13 fairways and hit 8 GIR and another 4 that were just off. And I would have hit at least 5 drives that were 20-30 metres longer than my norm - 240-250m instead of 210-220m. So I'm very happy with results so far - after only 10 weeks!
