Golf Digest shoots photo sequences for many of their instruction articles each year at Kapalua. Here are a few I took on Wednesday of tournament week.

Thank you for all the pictures so far YODA. Man, it's fun to see...

How about 28 men, playing a 7400 yard golf course, and while I type this, not 1 of them over par. DAMN, THESE GUYS ARE GOOD!!!

Agreed,

They should invited me. Just to put the performance in perspective.

Golf has the huge benefit of including a lot of shots at top level that even the amateur can match. Where they differentiate is in the consistency and in the authority in the ball striking. But a keen amateur will produce as good results on quite a few strokes during a good round. It's fascinating.

It is fascinating to watch cross country skiers too. (I'm from the home country of skiing). Or track runners. Or swimmers. Or syclists. But the speed they produce is something most people have a huge problem of identifying with - even if they take 5 years off and just practice. I usually tell my non-golfing friends that golf is THE game for people with the athletic future behind them. Of course knowing that this is a beautiful lie.

80 degrees . . . Gentle breeze . . . Late afternoon sun. What's not to like?

[BerntR]

You lucky bastard.

Not that you haven't earned a place in the sun.



One question while you are there. Who's shoes would you rather be in? Your own or Brian's? Or perhaps Ms Yoda? Do you feel the competitive fire or do you prefere to be on the sideline of the battle?

In my former "real" career -- -- I was always "line". To now serve as "staff" is, well, different. Doesn't keep me from enjoying the ride, of course, but it is different.

More good news is that, in every other aspect of this new career, I remain very much line. And that suits me to a "T".

Golf and life has more than a couple of things in common I guess. When everything works perfect, timing isn't an issue. But usually - timing is everything. In business and in sports.

I didn't realise the significance of you coaching Brian Gay until I read the HK biography and started to see the whole picture of TGM around at www.

I hope you and Brian and some of the others of the talents you are tutoring tremendous success through 2k10. I'll be rooting for anyone who promotes TGM this season.
