Thought I woudl share this one.
I'm hitting balls and my friend shows up with a young guy. Turns out my friend has volunteered to coach the golf team at a unique school that is attached to the university in town. These are high school guys.
So he asks me to help out with this one student, 15 years old. His grip is bad, he doesn't pivot, he's all arms, but occasionally he hits it pretty good.
Worked on fixing his grip, and he made a tiny bit of pivot progress.
The thing is that the kid has been taking lessons from the Pro at the most high cotton club in town. Same guy I took 1 lesson from 6 years ago and walked away shaking my head. Same guy that is on the local TV news at least once a week with a golf tip.
So in 8 lessons at $70 per hour, this guy has apparently done zip. The kid did not know what I meant by pivot! I asked the kid whether the Pro still was teaching, what I call the jump up move. He immediately knew what I meant. This Pro learned it from the guy he worked under in Hilton Head.
It's his method and he's obviously sticking to it!
