Hello All,

It's been a very busy summer. Gee, I didn't think anyone would miss me. Just think of it as a mental lapse.

Long Drive over the summer was a very rewarding experience. I didn't go to districts this year but will be working dilligently on a new swing technique to compete next year. My longest drive was 361 yards. I got waxed by 2 guys that day, one hit 394 and the other 402. Hard to beat those numbers. Both guys were 20 years younger also. No excuses, I had fun, got some great tips to share and meet some fantastic folks.

I also was an instructor for the local junior summer tour. I have many juniors I teach but decided to teach at the camp. I did full swing and my kids did great. I has several 1st and 2nd place competitors. Kids take to instruction like sponges. Ya just gotta make it fun. Out of that experience, I have 3 juniors I am giving advance instruction to. Two of them want to enter college on a golf scholarships. All have improved their games drastically. One student Miss Robin Barnes wants to enter the State Womens Amateur next year. That's are goal. She is a very dedicated student.

The bald guy is learning a new addition to the Mike Austin method of the golf swing. Mike and his primary teacher Dan Shauger have collaborted to document Mikes closest guarded swing method. I have been doing the pivot for years but the arm motion is totally different than the traditional swing. Through my testing I am finding it to require less effort to achive maximum ball compression. More to come!!!

I will start comming by more. The great Gandolf also has this new information, should make for some interesting discussion.
