Simplicity Wins
The more simply you approach playing golf the better you’ll do. Problems arise when you make a mistake and Pesky wants to assert his power. The normal thing (what you’re probably doing now) is to think and try and work out what you’re doing wrong. This is complicated. It takes effort and almost always leads…
The Carrot File
Once again Grayden has set my mind going with his carrot peeling exercise. His latest comments and insight appear here and require further comment. Is thinking about peeling a carrot going to help your golf game? Here’s my take. I’m reminded of going to a party in my hey day. I was able to walk…
Protected: A Golf Triber Case Study
There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.

An important golf lesson you've probably never thought about
For some time now I’ve said that “the walk to the golf ball” is the most important part of the swing. There’s good reason for this. If you can’t walk properly, then you’ll never be able to make good use of your skills. You’ll never be able to automate your golf swing and you’ll find…
