How long did it take for those changes to take effect? The pictures dont lie great job.
He came for a half day lesson (4 hours). And, it took 2½ hours to get him to this point. Many would be excited about changes like this in a year. I was extremely happy about the quick results. Some disregard the basic motion curriculum. These pics say otherwise. (Thanks for the help Homer)
Definitely looks like a different golfer between the two, posture to the impact.
Excellent... This should make Yoda Smile...again...
I do like making the green man smile, but you should have seen the smile on the students face and mine! And, I get paid to do this!?!?!?!? I love my job.
There's no room for debate in this thread with pics like that.
Look at the differences in the set up. Look at the difference in the head movement. Look at the right foot at impact. Look at the club face. Look at the straight line delivery path. Look at the backswings one stops at end and the other at top.
I wouldn't mind taking this guys swing for a test drive.
So what did you teach? I know you mentioned basic motion, but what else extensor action,angled hinging, impact fix set up, flying wedges????
Looking forward to my trip back to the swamp. Big things going on over there lately.
We had too many changes to accomplish in such a short amount of time, I didn't care whether he was hitting or swinging, at first. There are plenty of components in 12-1-0 and 12-2-0 that are the same. His biggest wobbles were stationary head and plane line tracing. He had no right forearm pickup. And he destroyed the flying wedges in start-up. As soon as we focused on the tripod concept, the body was under control. Then, we got to tracing. I told him that I thought it was pretty smart on the part of Homer to call it a start-up instead of a start-around. He agreed.

No, I am naturally a pure swinger, although I had some hitting components. I am using straight 12-2 to build my swing.
This is another amazing thing about Ted. He understands the principles of physics harnessed by Homer in The Golfing Machine. You do not have to "hit like Ted". He can take your natural abilities and tendencies and teach you how to use them to make an effective G.O.L.F. swing.
This reminds me:
Another thing I forgot to mention about Ted is that he will not take any credit for himself, but is constantly saying that he know because Yoda taught him and because of the genious of Homer Kelly and The Golfing Machine. All I can say is that Lynn Blake knows how to pick the right apprentice, and Ted KNOWS the machine and he KNOWS how to teach it. That shoudl be obvious from the photos, but I wanted to say it anyway.
