All plans need the abilty to adjust along the way..but I get your point and I do concur...The game of golf is much more than the mastery of one's mechanics it's a journey...And many friends, relationships, lessons, defeats and persoanl victories are encountered along the way....Perhaps the "Pursuit of Perfection" is what often causes one to lose perspective of smellin the grass and enjoying each and every moment...But to the original challenge....your position is well debated..but I'm afraid the true challenge lies within the individual to strive to get better...."The Intangibles" are what are the fuel that guides golfers to better golf....Talent,Heart,Work Ethic, Strong Will, Courage, Drive, Determnation, "A Sack" and etc...One can work on the mechanics for eternity and still not know how to score, grind, will that ball ito the hole to accomplish the simplicity of Rule 1-1(USGA Rulebook)... My Deep Battered Little Friend.. Golf in it's simplicity....The Game of Golf consists of playing a ball with a club from the teeing ground by a stroke or sucessive strokes to a hole in accordance with the Rules.... We all forget how simple that is..... Golf and it's complexity....The Game of Golf consists of controlling a ball with a club.......... You get the point... Yes..one needs a guide and the right information but more importantly the individual needs to be able to do it frequentlyNot once a month....once a week, ...but each and every day....many times throughout the day.... At Campbell we have done a case study with a 1/1 hour lesson a week...3/20 minute lessons a week.. and 5/12 minute sessions a week...which one turned out to be the most successful?...I think we all know the answer to that...... People want to play like the PGA Tour Players...Do they play and practice as frequently as the Tour Players...perhaps some...but I would say not nearly enough.... So Bucket ...I answer your challenge first and foremost ....because we are friends...Get your arse in your car and come see me for a minimum of 3/20 minute sessions per week or better yet move you family down here to the Creek and I'll work with you 5 days a week..You get the weekends off to be your "redneck mullet self"... annikan skywalker View Public Profile Send a private message to annikan skywalker Find all posts by annikan skywalker
