From the book: "Most golfers merely use their hands to hold the club. Actually, the hands control your swing"
How many golfers really understood that?

I heard Bob Toski speak at the South Florida Teaching Symposium yesterday. He is still very entertaining... at age 81.
He made it quite clear that he is not a "big muscle" swing proponent. Does not like the term "dead hands". He believes in using the entire body in the swing, but strongly believes in what sounds like what TGM'ers would call a Hands Controlled Pivot. He starts most of his students with a putter.
He likes the THROW A BALL AT THE BALL ON THE GROUND DRILL... using a golf like motion. This identifies how much hand/eye coordination a student has.
He still moves around like a man a least 1/2 his age. Amazing!!

There is a great photo of Bob Toski and his Flying Wedges in Golf Digest, August 2007, page 173. If someone could put this up -- -- it's worth a look. Thanks!
