More on Count Yogi
Peter & Willy,
I tried to answer your questions and doubts regarding Count Yogi as best I could, if you read my second post. I saw Yogi's car (he advertised himself and his book on the doors) several times at or near Los Angeles public golf courses, but never did meet him, which I regret. I started working odd hours, suffered shoulder and other injuries, and gave up on golf until very recently.
The Count Yogi website operates with the approval and consent of Harmon and Hill Frankenberg, Count Yogi's sons. Tim Nicholls went to school with them, and he looked after their dad during his final years. I've also never met Tim and don't always agree with his promotional approach, but he isn't exploiting Count Yogi's legacy, merely trying to expose it to people unaware of it. The private lessons are very expensive, but I don't believe them necessary to learn about or benefit from Yogi's method. Tim inherited all of Yogi's golf s****books, newspaper and magazine writeups, photos, film clips, testimonials, books, clubs/equipment, and so on. Some of this material is shown during the opening montage credits of the Count Yogi instructional video. Respected sports journalists such as the late Jim Murray (Pulitzer Prize winner) of the LA Times wrote articles praising Count Yogi. George Peper, former Golf magazine editor George Peper included a chapter on Count Yogi in his new book, "The Secret of Golf."
Many of the people who tried to suppress Count Yogi while he was alive were bigots who looked down on his multi-ethnic heritage. Others were jealous of his playing talent and teaching skills. Some were both.
I was curious and skeptical until I practiced and improved my shot trajectory and accuracy using
the Count's system. It could help a lot of golfers, if they opened their minds to it.
