Pure gold. That voice. The mannerisms. Sends chills down my spine. Haven't had the privledge of meeting Ben. When I discovered TGM and heard about him, I called out to his "workshop/range" in California to order a practice video. Some guy answered the phone, I introduced myself, told him I'd discovered TGM, and wanted to buy one of Ben Doyle's practice videos.
This guy asks me how did I come to golf? How old was I? Did I enjoy the game? Was I able to play much? We start chatting and like, twenty minutes later--we're on to the weather, how much kids have changed, how busy and frenetic life's pace has become. Forty five minutes later, he says something like "I, I have to go teach now. I have a lesson to teach. And I really think you're going to enjoy your studies. You seem like a fine young man and I'm sure if you apply what's in my video you are really going to do well".
It was Ben the whole time. Kindly, encouraging, quirky, supportive and friendly as the day is long--to a total stranger. I'll never forget that conversation.
I just read one of Yoda's old posts on this thread about the sound real compression makes, it reminded me of a sound I heard many years ago. I was standing next to Tevino in Billings Montana, he was 100 yards from the green hitting a wedge and believe me it sounded like he had just busted a huge drive, I have commented on this hundreds of times and will never forget that sound. PURE MUSIC!!!!
