Enjoyed the Flail video. The demonstration really brought the golfer's flail to life (As always). Can you share instructions on how to make a version similar to the one you use?

Sligo,
I built my flail from scratch, i.e., without any plans. And, trust me, in the mechanical and woodworking area, I am not an expert!
Take a hard look at what I've done, and do your best to replicate it. Your model is the Golfer's Flail in Sketch 2-K #4 and #5. It's not the best I could do, but when I did it 29 years ago, I had no idea I would be using it as I am now or that it would be broadcast around the world!
I soon will mass-produce a handful of mission-critical tools for my Lynn Blake Certified Instructors (as well as dedicated aficionados). My goal is to deliver wonderful teaching tools to my instructors, immediately and at a fraction of the cost they would incur to "do it themselves".
It's all in process and all part of a much larger theme.

Looking forward to the opportunity to get my hands on those teaching tools Yoda

I got off the course an hour a go playing my first round in two weeks since studying with Lynn.
5 pars
2 birdies including our # 1 HCP and # 3 HCP holes
Front 9 putts = 14 for a 44
Back 9 puts = 11 for a 43 Total 87
In addition, I hit my brassie over 200 yards on 4 holes to the green or short fringe for pars or birdies.
How did my score get so high? It was cold, wet and very windy and I moved or was moved a lot on the tee by wind gusts. I also forgot to close my shoulders to TSP several times. Also, I was a little overwhelmed by all my chipping and pitching option so I hit several closed face chips and several flop shots well past the hole. You see I was hitting the ball so solidly that the ball just kept rolling by the holes!
I will do better next week Lynn! We did win our Nassau! Thanks!

So, that means you need 12 strokes from me. Ok, but I get to drive the cart.
Lynn said it might take several weeks of use to get comfortable. He was right!
Balance-first and last thought. "Geeze your swing looks a lot different!"
Right heel/Left heel- my swing is so full I can actually wait for my wrist to cock if I want. The longer I swing, the more time I have to crush my driver! Is that so wrong? (Hello Mr. Jones!)
Correct grip/Mid-body hands-almost automatic but that heel pad wants to sneak into the left palm sometimes!
Question marks with grip-that's a struggle I have to get more duct tape around my golf balls. I'm losing weight and my doctor likes it but it takes so long to pull that tape off. And it hurts a lot!
TSP- I need maybe to start with TSP since it is really, really important and it affects my drives more than my irons, I think.
Sand traps and pitches- I never thought the day would come when I wanted to get rid of my Hogan "Sure Out," but the bounce on that thing is impossible for me to overcome. I can go up ok,but no distance control unless I do less "V" shape and I don't want to give up the "V!"
Chips- I tried that running chip five times and it ran forever for three doubles and one trip. Hmmm, didn't Lynn say to use the reg. chip as 80% of your chips? What about putting your chip? Derrrrr!
Putting- "You got your money on that those lessons!" I got their money too!

Thanks for your response. On my next day off I'll be headed to the hardware store for materials.
Please PM on details on pursuing Lynn Blake Instruction Certification
