[nevets88]

If you had no limit to travel and money and mortality was not an issue, who would you want to take lessons from or just to talk *only* golf swing/short game/putting?

Harvey Penick
Ben Hogan
Sergio Garcia (dude, show me how you do that lag thing, ha ha :) )
Seve Ballesteros (short game)
Martin Hall

My memory fails me. I'm sure I'll think of more if there's responses to this thread.

Mike Bennett and Andy Plummer

Oh yeah, forgot to add them. I'm so close taking one of their one day clinics. Definitely next year. Hope they don't raise their rates.

Attafanboy!

I would like to hit the town with Walter Hagen.

[Harmonious]

Hogan, Pelz, Utley, Faxon. That should cover all the bases.

[shortstop20]

Hogan(full swings)
Phil(short game)
Tiger(mental game)
Stockton(putting)

[kafka01]

Moe Norman, Sam Snead, Ben Hogan for Full Swing

Afternoon putting Lessons with Geoff Mangum
Evening playing lesson with Phil
After party with Tiger

Harvey Penick. No one else necessary.
