      Winged foot in the summer and Seminole in Florida in the winter. Later in his life, he taught at Lochinvar Golf Club in Houston. Butch eventually came to Lochinvar before going to Rio Secco.

    This is absolute Gold! I have been beating balls lately, really trying to improve my swing in a couple ways, and to see Ricky have similar struggles to the average golfer is just… I don’t know what to say. I look for the videos where pro golfers make mistakes. It sounds crazy, but it’s the most helpful. “It’s not how good you hit it, it’s how bad are the misses”

  • @Murf1802
    @Murf1802 3 месяца назад

    I have to admit, I loved Ricky's flat back swing, his back swing was in Hogans territory, but what's he's done is perfect to my eye, nice ,high controlling power, the difference is incredible, two different swings, born a pure Athlete, I can see Ricky being an all-star short stop, no doubt! Thank you for the inspiration, you know I felt like I had a very nice looking swing, until I filmed myself a few years back, Holyshit Charles Barkley has a jem compared to what I watched, omg , Ego, leave it in the parking lot, HaHa ,, Great sport golf, you'll definitely learn how to talk to yourself on the course!

    at this point i believe a peak level coach like butch harmon can have more of a mental function - a role of a mentor. of course he has the top-tier knowledge about golf swings and because of that he will be able to get into a deep and profound conversation about your swing but what he seems to be doing most is to reaffirm rickie with what he knows he can do. so much subtle guiding towards a certain success-promising midset - masterclass!

    Something people need to learn is that spinnier balls means spinnier in all directions, so it makes the ball more workable and less controlled in a sense. Most would be better with lower spinning ball with higher spinning clubs to impart backspin specifically on the ball. Fowler obviously likes working the ball and can control it, but the left dash prov1xs the best ball for most. Also a double cross is like a hook when you’re trying to fade it, not a hook when you’re trying to draw it.

    Rickie seems to have lost his fire for some reason. He's always been under control, but he seems disinterested these days. Maybe too much success in early life? Now he's getting a bit soft? There is no player on tour that I'd rather see become a contender again than Rickie. What Rickie needs is some of Tiger's "take no prisoners" attitude.
