Day was just another dog and pony show.
There really wasnt much to say about it except these main points-
Fanny Sunesson spoke about tactics and course statergy etc, this was good but she really didnt say anything much about the great players that she was caddying for. Her yardage books were the best I have ever seen so comprehensive and detailed which gives me the impression that a good caddying is worth more to a player than meets the eye.
Thank god she did not talk about swing mechanics because as was found out later on all she knows is Leadbetter stuff early set etc.
Beverly Lewis spoke about teaching women how to play golf.
This was all about the art of the ´warm bath´ golf lesson no teching technique just all these teaching tips and atedotes like Harvey Penick stuff. Brian would done better with women in his teaching golf in the real world post last month.
She was a lot better than that stupid ignorant Suzy Whalley that presented at the 04 Florida summit[I would be interested to get Brian or anyones opinion on Suzy Whalley]
Dr Frank Thomas was most disappointing and he should know a lot better! He gave us zero technical information and just told stories and made jokes about technology and how it is having an effect on the game. He final conclusion after all the story time was that we should not ban the illegal clubs just because the pros hit them further the amateur golfer[leekage throaway] needs all the help they can get to enjoy the game. One more point for someone who is supposed to do all that research he is totally ignorant about clubfiiting and says it only helps the 5 handicap and below. Such a comment is to dumb to even acknowledge and is based on his opinion not any fact at all.
HE SHOULD KNOW BETTER THAN TO TREAT 1000 GOLF PROS LIKE FOOLS
