| | September 19, 2009 - My summer is completed here, especially after my last two weeks of trying to retrieve my stolen property. I have recovered some of my digital teaching equipment, along with my laptop, some of my trick shot clubs, my backup set of Henry-Griffitts woods and irons, and most of my teaching aides. My plans are to head south, through the Carolinas, and back to Hobe Sound, Florida. I am looking forward to seeing all the members at Hobe Sound Golf Club. I hope you have a good fall and winter here in Michigan. Like I've said before, if you're coming to Florida and you're on the east side of the state, please give me a call -- I would look forward to hearing from you. I can always be reached at (810) 845-5326.
| September 04, 2009 - I hope you all have a good holiday weekend. My plans are to head back to Hobe Sound, Florida on September 19th or 20th. Lessons this year have been awfully slow, but it is what it is. If you're ever in Florida, and you're going to be in the Hobe Sound/Jupiter Island area, please give me a call -- lessons in Florida are fun too. My only wish is soon, the economy, Genesee County and Michigan, pick up. This week I have run in to a bit a bad luck; I was at Spring Meadows Golf Club for the day on Wednesday, giving a 9-hole playing lesson, and visiting with Jeff, the General Manager and Head Professional. When I arrived back in Grand Blanc, I returned to my apartment to find that it had been broken in to. I guess its just another bump in the road -- although a rather large one. Somebody has helped themselves to my trick shot clubs, my back up clubs and all of my digital cameras and computer equipment. There were many more items missing, which were of little consequence to other people. I've told many of my students over the years, even though I have a college degree, golf is all I know. I will still be giving some lessons before I head south, even though I have lost many tools of my trade. One thing they can not steal from me is the knowledge I've learned over the last 30 years -- I hope to see you before I leave on the practice fairway. Give me a call at (810) 845-5326 to schedule a lesson. I have enjoyed teaching here in Grand Blanc this summer, and as always, I've enjoyed working with my return students and the new ones I've befriended. May your fall in Michigan be a great time with family and friends, on the links. Your keys are all in your fundamentals (grip, aim and setup). If we all do that, we'll be hitting more fairways and greens.
| August 31, 2009 - I guess we had a short summer here in Michigan a touch of frost last night and it is only August 31st! Fall golf is wonderful in Michigan and a little sweater weather will not be bad at all. I have a One Hour Golf Lesson Special for the next three weeks just give me a call at: 810.845-5326. Lesson includes video and range balls. If you enjoy the lesson and I am sure you will; for only $30.00 I can put you're swing on a DVD. I will compare you to you're favorite touring professional from the PGA or LPGA so you can remember what you need to practice this winter. Have a great week and see you on the practice fairway!
| August 20, 2009 - Hello there,
Hope you all are having a good summer and now fall approaches. Fall in Michigan is wonderful with some cool weather and the trees changing colors. What a great time of the year to change some of you're flaws.
Here is something I truly believe will help all of us.
We need to work on our Attitude first and then the other three things will happen. Excellent Mental, Emotional, and Physical Balance will take place!
“Attitude, Plus Mental, Emotional and Physical Balance”
"Quote": ~A position of the body or manner of carrying oneself, indicative of a mood or condition: ~A state of mind or feeling with regard to some matter; Disposition: ~No matter how good our ability is, Attitude is the most important thing we must work on Daily. Let's keep working on our Attitude, stay positive no matter what. I would love to see a good Attitude everyday!
No one is good enough to pound or throw their golf clubs. I truly believe this, not even the best player on the planet Eldrick Woods. Now with that said try this for the next month.
We need to work on you're Mental, Emotional, and Physical Balance.
Mental means know what you are trying to do with you golf swing!
Emotional you must be relaxed soft grip, soft arms, and soft shoulders!
Physical you must have a good set up and then use your body not just you hands and arms.
The game gets easier if you get 75% of you're weight back to you're right foot then finish with 100% of your weight on you're left foot. If you are not balanced completely then swing easier please.
· Of course if you play left handed then back to you're left foot to you're right foot.
Have a great week and try this I know it will help everyone!
Remember it takes 21-days to make anything permit.
Check my tip of the month I know you will like to save a little and still have a chance to improve you're game. Just click on the tip on my home page.
