It was good!! Jeff kindly let us loose on his course (Uni of Georgia) on the Monday and we played a final round at Cuscowilla on the Tuesday before heading to the airport (still can't play that 14th hole right!!!) but we did find Neil's Squirrel sized divot on the 9th

Some Squirrel! A Jurassic throwback if ever there was one.
Thanks Jeff, and everyone else who made our time in CW so very memorable.
Ben is a very nice, quiet guy. But, he hit balls behind me on the practice range at Cuscowilla. The sound of his compression, however, is not so quiet .
The Casio is having a nervous breakdown having been in its case for 2 days now on its way home. Next time with a wind mic we might be able to record some of the goings on without it sounding like the gale in Teds pants
The stop off in San Fran was fun with a mini workshop held at Senoma Golf Club with John Erickson who hosted me - one of Ben Doyle and Mac O's tour pro's in the late 80s and 90s. We played Mare Island with 1935 Bobby Jones irons and these weird wooden things called woods If anyone is interested in playing tournaments with old gear I can put you in touch with him.
Good to be home but still coming down from the high.
Just watching Lynn move was enough cure my swing faults.
The professionalism of this team quite shocked me. They changed my life. I thank them very much.
Paul Hart is one of Australia's most respected teaching talents. To read his words of commendation regarding our LBG team is both gratifying and humbling. Thanks, Paul!
P.S. Our Homecoming Classic featured a Closest To the Pin contest on the four par threes. Paul won two of them!
Paul was embarrassed when I refered to him as a Legend.So in the true spirit of Aussies/Poms,I changed that reference to Leg-end,he was happy with that!
What a guy,and what a swing.
Paul don't forget, if you send an insulting reply ,my Brother lives in Sydney!
It was an honour to meet you Paul.

Thanks Good thing you were behind me and not out to the right when I was working on the RFP! I felt like Tin Cup on the US Open practice range. lol
For those who missed it, Jeff showed us that drill on Friday. Put a stick in the ground right on your plane line and try to hit it, or go right of left of it if you're fighting pulls/pushes. When Jeff showed us the drill, he hit the stick his first 6 times!! These guys are good.

Oh yea I remember that......there was Burner, me, Jeff and you in a line on the range. Jeff hit the pin in his first 6 shots and then found it boring hitting the pin with his 7 iron and then proceeded doing the same with his driver!!! Burner hit the pin about 3 or 4 times...Bam Bam hit if a few times and I am managed to get one in about 50 shots
I was Tin Cupping it all week on the range whilst I was working on things. Like Lynn said on the Thursday its like drinking from a firehose..there were so many ideas and things to do on the range that my poor brain could not take it all in at once but again the Guided Struggle has become easier.
Again thanks to all the guys (and gal) for making it such a great week. It was great to meet you (especially our resident Aussies 'The Dart' and Smithy) all and have a great time with this game called golf.
