Can't believe it... complete with pro tracer that shows that he's hit a nice big slice and missed the 'target' by miles. It's like gold dust :D

Ummm.... no.

He had a target which was the flag... you're supposed to land the ball next to the flag and then tap in the putt for birdie ;)

This is what he was TRYING to do.... (click the picture to enlarge)... but he hits it off to the right (a slice).. lucky there's no aligators over there ;)

LOL.. I've suddenly forgotten... can you help? :ears:

I know it's been covered but this one with pro tracer was just too funny not to post, and when he said... "That's what I'm talking about"... I nearly swallowed my tonsils :D

Jesus,

Do you never get bored with posting pish? Are you on some sort of "I know best" crusade and want to show off to the forum???

No,.... golf, the golf swing and golf instruction interests me.

How about you? ever get tired of throwing your toys out of your pram? or complaining? shouldn't you be in 'out of bounds section' where you can just make idle chit-chat and moan about something 'important'?

Only one small difference. Instead of aiming face AT the target he should aim left of target, but right of feet direction/swingpath.

'Officially', Swing with face open to swing path but closed to target - on line of intended ball starting direction.

Or easier(?). Swing outside target, point face between swing path and target. Ball starts on line of face and curves back. Surprise, surprise, same applies to Draw and for both Leftied/Righties.

Of course, eventually/hopefully, the brain overrules the training and there's an unconscious adjustment to set the face in the correct direction.

Does show the influence of US over UK teachers though. The 'new' flights were apparently always in the UK PGA Training manual, or at least reference (as recommended reading) to them (the 1968 book 'Search for the Perfect Swing'.

i'm usually one to sit on the fence and tbh these posts interest me to a certain extent but i think the craw is on to something.it's not the post itself,its the way you present it in that childish "i'm right,your wrong" kind of way and then proceed to make a mockery of it.

Cant say I really care about how JustOne presents his thoughts - I can make my own mind up.

However, is this guy having a laugh - he is standing so open it make Bubba look normal!
