That looks amazing, and signing up for this would solve some pretty cool pieces for me, both for golf and because it'd be cool to see Erie and meet Erik.  It would also be great for improving my golf.   I don't know much of what I'd be able to travel, if at all, in the second half of 2022 (I know I mostly won't be able to in the first half, barring some narrow windows in which I might be able to).   If a spot is still available, I have to figure out if I'll be able to get out there.

FWIW I mailed off a mighty large check today… so I'm not closing this yet, but I will close it at some point. I've not yet determined final pricing, but it won't be very close to being as inexpensive as this deal.

And remember, for local people and semi-local people (worth driving over for a day), you can split your sessions apart by months if you want.

I've got a page (still a work in progress) now on the Golf Evolution site for the GEARS. As you can see, I've set the prices pretty low, but y'all doing this deal are getting a pretty good deal: about 25% off.

BTW, here are your updated odds of the deal in the first post ceasing to exist by these points in time:

  • When the GEARS is installed (well before Thanksgiving): 99.99%.
  • The end of October: 75%.
  • One week from today: 50%.
  • This Saturday: 25%.

Confirm your spot in the lineup accordingly, those who have not already done so. 🙂

So am I! I'm watching a bunch of training videos right now. For example…

There are commonalities about when the best players tend to reach peak grip speed (it's generally surprisingly early in the downswing), for example. I honestly think the GEARS site does a disservice in listing what it measures because the list is a LOT longer than what’s listed.

I'm going to begin accepting the payments now. I'll put a little 💰by your name on the list when you've sent payment.

This can be done…

  • In person with cash.
  • Via PayPal (https://paypal.me/iacas should work)
  • Via a check mailed to me.
  • In person via a credit card.

I like the first and third, because there are no fees, but the second and fourth are far more practical. 😄 Please, by the end of the month, if you could. If you have a special circumstance that we talked about before, just DM me.

To those still waiting to join the list, the days are numbered. 😄

Oh, and since the deal is still available to others, if they copy the list above, I'll just keep adding the "paid" symbols to the last post I've made in the topic.

There is still time to get in on this deal, and you can ask anyone who has worked with me — I'll go above and beyond to make sure you feel you've gotten what you expected or more for your money with my time, the quality of the information and the instruction itself.

I'll add everyone here to CoachNow for ongoing work, too.

I've updated the list with some recent snail mail deliveries. 🙂

There's still (a little bit of) time to get in on this if you want it. You'll enjoy, and get a lot out of, your time in Erie with this.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
