Dude . . . no reason for you to be nervous. Your are a genuine and nice dude. You have the best information in golf and have learned under the best. You just need to get started. You can handle this better than the vast majority of your peer group just on the information you have in your mellon alone.
6b......Unfortunatley as a teacher some times you have to give the student what they want, if it's a quick tip then so be it! You just have to makes sure the student is aware it's a quick fix and may not last.
Guys, Carl Spackler is a very knowledgable student of the swing and game. He is a great addition to the already extensive list of great contributors on Lynn Blake Golf!

Yes Carl is going to be an outstanding instructor, he knows his stuff- The Right Stuff.
And my point about tips and strokes is exactly as you wrote. You will lose a student that only wants a series of quick tips or fixes with a long term stroke construction-this is a business. And do a disservice to a student willing to build a machine. I think we agree.
comdpa....great post, I will be sure to print that out and save it!!!
Thank you for your kind words bucket, 6-B, and B-ray.....it has been a pleasure getting to know all of you, and I hope to meet up with you again soon!!!
Carl (are you REALLY called Spackler?) .As a student who wants to be as good as he can be ,WHENEVER he gets there,It is important to me to told what is correct -it is up to me to do it ---and I work hard trying.The important thing is I know TGM is correct- after spending time with the best people-I KNOW.
The teacher must teach.
The student must absorb and apply.
As a student-I work hard .
But it took me a long time to work on the right things-I practiced 6DAYS A WEEK FOR YEARS -ON THE WRONG THINGS!
Sure, the student must absorb and apply .................but if you don't have the teacher
Onward Carl
