What you can learn from a golf trick shot artist
These guys are awesome and offer us some insight into the learning process (please watch the video and then seen my comments below) A quick question: Do you think these artists are thinking about body positions, club alignment or are they focussed on hitting the ball? Experience tells me they are concerned 100% about whacking…
Some coaching is just plain wrong!
This post is going to discuss one of the most important emails I’ve received. It came from Brock (a regular reader) and was in response to this post on cricket.

Just a little heads up – the site is going through some changes and updates so there has been some downtime. Hopefully we’re through the worst of it now but there still could be an outage or two before the golf blog is firing on all cylinders. Thanks for your patience. Regards, Cameron
