I have watched the anti-summit videos twice. They are an education in all aspects of the swing - biomechanics, physics, club behaviour. I was just reading yet another post on an issue that becomes a non-issue after seeing the video. In fact much of what passes here for scientific golf discussion becomes, to me, irrelevant in the light of what I now know.

The video is costly, yes, but to take these discussions to the next level requires this knowledge. Of course, some may wish to remain in the dark and simply debate pet theories absent any scientific facts. But for me, and I suspect SteveT, that is a waste of time. Just as futile as staring at 2D videos of pro swings and declaring one to be the best or the one to emulate.

p.s. Regarding "shudder" in the title. This is my favourite SteveT parenthetical comment and I had to include it.

Good Eye and looking forward to discussing with you the ideas there.

BTW your handle could be interpreted as "I offish". You are not so maybe you could clarify the allusion.

Eyeoffish is a take off on a Zen idea that kind of stuck with me. The idea is that you cannot tell how a fish is feeling by looking at it's eye. The idea is to remain on a level keel while playing. You don't know me but people who do might tell you I am a little hyper or intense at times. Of course if you are looking at the eye of a fish it is either dead or you are swimming.

It is all about controlling your emotions versus letting them control you. My new Zen term is DILLIGAF.:cool:
Perhaps I should change my screen name?

I understand that eye. I was looking for the Zen reference. Is it a koan, a story, saying of a teacher?
