  1. Feel and real are not the same thing. Exactly. A good coach – who has a lot of experience with THAT PLAYER and knows THAT player – can tell the player what to try to feel like he's doing.

  2. I think the feel vs real comes down to the 300 milliseconds delay in your perception of the world. The golf swing is fast enough that it's over before you perceive it. So if it isn't in muscle memory, you are not going to get there.

  3. I remember watching this live, Tiger was a phenomenal golfer…he hit shots no one else on tour could pull off. Back then. That's the trouble with golf instruction also. I wonder how people understood what Tiger meant when he said "it's for me".
    Butch Harmon devoloped Tiger into the golfing machine that dominated the sport for years, Harmon has that leadership take no crap personality that I believe is absolutely necessary in instructing a guy like Tiger who seems nice on the surface but very very touchy ego. Hank Haney found that out!
    Watching him at Torrey in person I had to get out four or five holes in front and just wait, suddenly I found myself surrounded by what seemed thousand people, Tiger stood in front of me and made really soft easy practice swings. The focus was intense and I made sure not to move, breath,,, when he stepped up to drive his swing was so incredibly fast it was hard to believe! Back:-then holding his finish, incredibly fast and yes he missed the fairway, haha. Maybe out 300 or 290. In contrast I watched big John Daley that day also. Huge turn pointing the club down at his left foot then came the "thwap"at impact. Again out about 300….in the fairway bunker.

  4. The reality is the conventional golf swing is just too difficult for most people. Time to try another approach folks. you can make your own conclusions as to what I'm referring to
