Happy Trails to you.....
 

A funny thing happened in 2005.

Ben Doyle, Lynn Blake and myself Brian Manzella, along with assistance from Ted Fort and Mike Finney, did a golf school at Canton, Georgia.

It was a success.

The reason I say this, is I have talked to almost every attendee and they all loved it.

The only complaint was perhaps there was TOO MUCH good information.

It was MY GOAL for the school to show the "Golfing Machine" world and the "Golf World," that we could all coexist and the students would all learn.

The Golfing Machine is a SYSTEM that explains ALL methods. There were three different methods being employed at Canton.

If you asked Lynn or Ted, or Mike, or Ben, or I how we did at the school (I am talking individually) I think we would all say very good.

It was professionally videotaped and the video will be released soon. I can't wait, because there will be many discussions about what is on the video. I will stay out of them on this site, though.

And here is why:

Trust me, Ben disagrees with some of what I said at Canton and some of what Lynn did. Lynn disagrees with some of what I said at Canton and some of what Ben did.

I personally didn't mind hardly ANY of what was said, but watching other teachers teach gives me an upset stomach. I always feel like they are teaching in slow-motion.

I'm sure when and if the other teachers (except Mike, who is used to me) watched me teach, I drove THEM crazy.

So, what's the point?

The point is that everyone has their opinion, and people see things differently.

Lynn has a site here and he deserves to put whatever spin on things he pleases.

I have plenty on my plate now, and when my new site is up very soon, I will have even more.

Me, Tom Bartlett and Mike Finney are all very passionate about golf and G.O.L.F., so is Lynn and Ted and for sure, so is Ben.

So The Manzella Golf Academy will continue to believe we have the answers and so will Lynn Blake Golf.

I wouldn't take a lesson from anyone who didn't think they did.

So, I am trying to get the heck out of here and give Lynn some peace and quiet.

Hit 'em straight,

Brian Manzella, PGA, G.S.E.D.

Twas ever thus.
 

The golf forums always get a bit testy in the winter. And Martee, if you're lurking, why the @#!!@%!! did we move to North Carolina? You call this year round golfin' weather? :D

IF truly using a RFT wouldn't a moving head be an affectation??

Well it is a bit wet but I did play yesterday and planning on playing tomorrow. Worst case is I will break down and buy a rain suit or umbrella (my last one dried rotted in the desert(.

But I like NC.....

Next thing these foreigners'll be whinin' about the BBQ . . .

Hush Y'all
 

Good call, mb. When you've got the right things going on, everything gets real quiet.

Shhh....

Deliberate.

Positive.

Heavy.

That is the FIRST thing I felt when Eddie Cox gave me my first official Machine Lesson . . .

"Damn that felt like I just stood there, faced the ball and picked it up" Bucket

"Yep. That's it." Eddie

Aside from the violence.....
 

The pivot is the most important thing in my swing right now. When I do it right I feel effortless and the ball flies. Aside from the obvious showboating/arguing, I appreciate this thread. I used to have a huge sway....I just didn't know it, cause someone taught it to me as the right way. Now I feel like a spinning top who spins in place....TGM is the truth in G.O.L.F. Thanks Homer!

I feel it is a shame you guys can't get along.
