OK. June 6th Boston school is CONFIRMED. The location is Ponkapoag Golf Club...the Donald Ross muni in Canton, MA. My contact there in Boston tells me the range is nice on the back end and will give us plenty of space. I will be there to teach/run the school of course as well as my staff. Jimmy Burke (Harvard Golf Coach), a SnT guy himself will be there to help as well. $585 is the cost and that includes theory and detailed explanation in the am along with A LOT of one on one instruction all day. We will include lunch for everyone as well and we will also have computers and printers on hand so everyone will have photo documentation noting their changes and everything they worked on. School will run from 8:45 AM - 5:00 PM. Can't wait to get there. We already have 4 confirmed in and the max is 12 so if you want a spot please let me know asap. As long as we have 8 minimum we will make the trip for certain (based on this thread and emails i have received i think we will be there by Friday). Contact info is in this post just above.

OK - we officially have 5 as of right now and we will NEED 7 to make the trip and do the school (I had originally

Just wanted to start a new thread, as discussed.

I'm in if there is still a spot left. Email sent to Dave and PM left for Erik.

You're in. That puts us at six out of seven needed. We have a possible seventh, but we can take eight too - if anyone else out there knows a friend let me know.

Thanks Erik, looking forward to it and hoping for nice, bug free, weather.

One question, Dave's post mentions computers and photo documentation. Will there be any video equipment as well or is TGE only able to do videos at home in Erie?

The cameras come with us. We'll be driving over, I think, with a car full of equipment and aids.

Excellent! Hopefully the weather will cooperate so we aren't wet all day. Currently a 50% chance of showers but it can all change before then.

Also, there's still room for a few more. We'll have at least four instructors on hand.

Sure wish I had the funds for this right now but I like my marriage so I'll have to decline. Hopefully you guys have some time to head up to Boston (make sure you eat in the North End). Let me say an early Welcome to Boston!

Four instructors to seven students.. I like that ratio. My Stack and Tilt book arrives tomorrow so I'll be sure to do some reading before Sunday.

Hmm, 700 bucks to cross the pond for a nice day? Think I have the wrong job. Gotta waive participation this time. Sigh.

Do I need to bring anything other than my clubs? Will there be a lot of notes to take during the theory part of the class?

Things to bring:
1) notepad and pencil/pen
2) your golf clubs
3) golf attire (spikes, etc.)

That's about it.

BTW, we may have eight students now. We have at least seven. We're leaving at 4:30am Saturday so if we're out of touch for awhile, it's because we're driving.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
