    I learned how to shallow the club better. This is a long process and I am doing it because I have the resources and lifestyle to do it at the ripe age of 35. I skipped over this when i was a kid and read books and magazines. Then adult life came and took away my flexibility, mobililty and swing. It's time to get it back.

    I took time away from playing to work on the things I am supposed to work on. I get frustrated when I don't practice and then I don't enjoy the golf on the course. I am always trying to find the thing I was supposed to find in the range sessions that I never went to. I did a good number of consecutive days and this is my learning experience with constant feedback from a professional coach.

    An observation and I hope Eric can comment too if he reads this. My kid in medical school did a paper on swing biomechanics and she found that the lead knee controls the sway. If it goes straight down on the backswing you clear easily and hit straight, if it moves inside you sway. I watched your old vids and that was happening. Anywho, great impact...Eric is a miracle worker!

      At 25, you realise life is getting serious
      At 30, you realise your mortality and you realise there are things you don't know that you don't know
      At 35, you know some things and realise you know very much less than you thought you knew, and what you didn't know that you didn't know at 30, you start to understand and find ways to know it.

    Mad props to you for being dedicated to improving your game and letting us join you on your journey. I wish I had started my road to improvement at 35. I've played on and off most of my life but didn't seriously try to improve or get lessons until I turned 50. I know a lot of people that refuse to get lessons, then still get angry when they play badly only because of that one time they shot 79 and now think that that should happen every round. Cheers!
