Golf instruction has gone pretty much "unchecked" by science/accurate measurment for ages. Now with 3D radar monitors and 6* 3D, is it possible to reverse engineer a "zero'd swing"? If it's possible, would if be the most efficient way of teaching? If so, is instruction heading into a "true-measured-impact backwards" era? Meaning learning a zero impact first, then figuring out the body positions (based SOLELY on the individual) to consistenly produce them.

Since the average golfers handicap has stagnated to what it is seemingly forever. What do you think the Manzella Academy can do to help bring the golfing world's handicap down and what do you think that Handicap should be ultimately? Furthermore, as it relates to your G.T.E program. Can you discuss your goals for the program and do you believe that the program can and should supplant all other golf instruction teaching systems in the world and/or country and why?

What is the goal of the GTE program and will there be a list of competencies and standards that graduates must meet?
I know there is a test, but what are the core standards? How is peer review factored into this equation?
Is technology creating a greater barrier to the student/teacher relationship or is technology creating more trust and awareness between both parties?
What are the standards for teaching a good player (0-5 hcp), a good weekend player (6-11 hcp), an above average player (12-20 hcp) and others? What communication barriers prevent teachers from being able to communicate and help the above type players?

You have a student with average athletic ability, in his mid-30's, relatively new to golf - plaqued by the usual difficulties a beginner golfer faces. He has 8 hours a week for golf/ 52 weeks a year - you get $100/hour to coach him, but you get a bonus of $25,000 if he breaks 80 within one year. What's going to be your approach to get him to 79 as fast as possible with a finite amount of time to practice/play?

Are you sure that post impact, the pivot allows the arms to take over and pull it to the finish? Why not drive the pivot all the way beyond impact?
