I have no problem with that Lagster, but I do know that Payne's dad wanted someone to mentor his son and not someone to alter his golf swing. Cook did work his short game. Who did Payne see about Putting?

Cook and Ness get buried in Golf Digest. They are just two on a short list of instructors worth getting the magazine for.

Add One More To the List...
Spent about two hours today at the TOUR Championship with Mike Bender and his student, 2007 Masters Champ Zach Johnson. Mike is a celebrated player and instructor in his own right http://www.mikebender.com/Instructor...ab3db3b5e.html and has spent more than a little time with such TGM luminaries as -- in alphabetical order -- Ben Doyle, Chuck Evans and Mac O'Grady.

With Zach applying the principles, we talked a lot of golf...but very little Golf Machine. For practicing professionals trained in its basics, TGM is accepted as an underlying 'operating system.' Like Microsoft's Windows or Apple's Macintosh, it is just there, and it is upon that platform that we build our applications.

More later on my day at East Lake in the forum On Tour With LBG.

I think you are right about that 6bmike. I've heard Chuck say that Payne wanted Chuck to help him, but Payne "did not want to change his swing".
Chuck kind of had to sneak things in there to help Payne. Payne was a "ball flight" guy. He liked to work the ball on nearly every shot. Very, very talented player.

Not sure about the putting. He was a good putter.
