Re: Cookie-Cutter Golf Swings
I think some important points are being missed here. Most people that play golf in the world have a high handicap. Most golfers never take a lesson. Most golfers swing out to in and have a reverse pivot. Most golfers are inconsistent with their ball fight. Most golfers want to play better.
Now how do the great unwashed improve their golf?
1) Keep playing as they are and hope that something will change by it's self
2) Talk about their game in the clubhouse and suggest that if it had not been for the five blowup holes they would have made a good score
4) Get very frustrated, throw the clubs in the garage, come back a month later thinking the rest will have done them good
5) keep practising their poor swing at the range so they can get a more consistent poor swing
6) Buy lots of new clubs and only use Pro V 1 X balls
8) Get some professional help
It's a bit of a no-brainer really.
I have used the services of three PGA coaches over the years, they have all had a slightly different style of teaching that reflected their personality but all knew their stuff and were a great help, maybe I have been very fortunate to have met good instructors. I am not so naive to believe that there may not be some coaches that rip people off and give questionable advice, I would think their reputation would go before them though. There will also be the students that cannot be taught or take advice, even when they seek it.
