Glad to know my lack of faith in RSG is not misplaced!

Glad to know my lack of faith in RSG is not > misplaced! Yeah, the serious golfers have left RSG I am afraid. I seldom post anything about golf here anymore. The forum seems to be primarily nutcases like Bobby Knight and his clique-- who spend their entire day every day lurking over their computer watching for posts on RSG--and then posting venom in reply. They guard this like a hummingbird guarding the feeder. This is THEIRS and how dare anyone post without paying homage to the clique. Anyhow, regarding the short backswing-- I got that idea watching Doyle and Trevino and Quiggley and others who simply stop raising their arms and turning when they are comfortable--which is the "L" position. Rick Martino, Director of Instruction for the PGA, was on TGC "Academy Live" recently and endorsed this same concept of simply swinging from "L" to L" without necessity to make a full shoulder turn. Then I worked on it on the range-- just keeping my arms in front of my chest-- hitting dozens and dozens of long irons to a short target-- 3i only 100 yards, etc. When you can do that your arms are synchronized with your torso-- and the ball goes straight. On the tee my goal is to get it in the middle of the fairway--even if only 200 yards. Then my goal is to hit it toward the green-- but never sacrificing accuracy for distance. If getting it there might require too much effort for a relaxed swing, I just bunt it straight --knowing I will have a perfect lie for a pitchup. Etc. etc. A different way to play golf-- but what I call "engineer golf." Larry

Were you lying then? |
