if we had the weather oop north like you southern jessies enjoy maybe it would have come down more due to better playing conditions

Re: i used the 3 skills and nailed it!

Greetings all.

2008 GTO British Open sounds like a great idea - as they would say in the boxing world 'let's get it on'. Greg 'don king' Hutton - over to you.

Probably best to wait until the weather warms up a bit - I had a day off to go and play a round today but the temperature was only 2 degrees so didn't bother.

Also we may need to adjust Slats' handicap as he seems to be hitting it so well.

I wanna see all the arden boys 'nailing it'.
Would be great to have a 3skillsgolf coaching day followed by a round. We should organise that for sure.
Hope you are all playing good golf.
Be nice to have another gto golf day.
I would be on tour if I could putt
Probably should practise lol.
Have a good evening everyone.

Hi there guys, Kevin McDonald PGA and Authorised 3sk Instructor here.
Some good news, we have been featured in the latest edition of Golf Punk magazine (december 07') issue.
On Sarah Stirk's article page. (page 27)
Tell all your friends about the book 'Nail It'.
Would make a great christmas present for anyone you know who likes golf or is thinking about taking it up.
Peace and good golfing to you all. (big hello to all the arden boys) I went out the other day for 9 holes around Hersham Village GC and I actually putted well .
Coupled with excellent ball striking I done alright.
Kev.

Re: i used the 3 skills and nailed it!

The video of my swing really put me off when I played on Sunday - I was all over the place thinking about not coming over the top and hacked around for 31 points. At this point I have three or four different ways of hitting the golf ball and when it goes wrong with one I jump to another.
I haven't practised the 3sk enough yet (partly due to my over-helpful pro!) and all I do on the course is use the visualization of the ball going to target with a draw shape.

hi mariner
stay away from the pro and practice 3skills drills exclusively
from experience i can tell you that it will fall into place.
i got distracted from it and my form dipped but as soon as i concentrated solely on it then it came back.
good luck

Thanks for the encouragement. We got 19 points from the 12 holes and I got 17 of them. 3sk forever.

Brian,

I am so glad to see the results of you sticking with it. After a slightly troublesome start you have come through. Great!

Re: i used the 3 skills and nailed it!

Hi,

I'm just about to buy the book. Are your swings then, using the 3skills that different from a conentional swing?

From what I read from these threads the skills were drills and images but didnt really touch the swing mechanics itself, putting you in great ball striking positions.

I didnt know it had a big change on your swing. What did your swing look like in the video? The impression from your thread its not too good or is this an over-reaction??

What have you other 3skillers thought of your new swings?

3 skills is complementary to any good swing. Just about all good ball strikers at any level already carry out the 3 skills they just don't call it that.

3 Skills does not tell you how to make your swing or what style to use, it rather suggests that if the skills are executed your swing will improve anyway. As I had a pretty good swing before adopting 3 skills I cannot talk as someone who began with the system from the start, it has however given me a good insight and understanding to a number of things that were a little grey or unclear, this has certainly taken my ball striking to a new level.

I would stick my neck out and suggest that if you have a one or two plane swing, a Joe Dante or Leslie King, a Butch Harmon or David Leadbetter, a Nick Bradley or Moe Norman swing then 3 skills will still enhance your ball striking.

I hope this helps your understanding.

Re: i used the 3 skills and nailed it!

You do not have to concentrate on the swing, just the contact. I ignored the pro and did the 3sk in the comp today and I did good.
Brian

good for you brian
i have let a couple of thing distract me of late and the quality of the strike hasnt been as good
im off to the range tonight to put it right
