The offer still stands for the MySwing thread. We'll be more than happy to get you in shape in the remaining 48 hours before your appearance with Graeme!

Yeah,  nothing like thinking about your swing to smooth out your game.  Hard to believe David isn't taking you up on this. ;-)

But then again, what the hell do I know?

I hear they like it even better when you try to outdrive them and then boast that you did it when they hit 3-wood after watching your driver sail into the pond long.

I vote that David should spent the entire front nine constantly reacting to his tee shots by saying, "I don't know what's going on today...normally I'm well over 300 on my tee shots!"

@David in FL , ask Graeme what his e-Penis size is. @Slice of Life wants to know.

I can't wait to read your golf stories and see some pics!!   Fun stuff!!

Now I'm daydreaming about the possibilities:  yea...I went over to Medalist to play with Tiger yesterday...etc, etc. etc.   I went over To Tigers "compound" afterwards for a practice session and to drink a few beers.   I drank too much so I crashed in his guest house for the night, until I was awakened in the middle of the night by a young lassie I never met before looking for attention. :w00t:

Hmmm, now I am starting to worry a little bit that this guy's call and David's call might have originated in Nigeria.

Only if I take a little off the tee ball.  You know, just drop the driver on it......

Never heard of this guy, or his site.  Anyone know anything about him?

Nah.......all they asked me for was my SSN, the routing number to my checking account, and my mother's maiden name.   They said they needed it in case I won something during the match.

It's GOTTA be legit!

I think David should become "Lesson guy". "You know Grahm, if you would close that left shoulder a bit, I think you could really go places"

Ignore my idea, I think this one is better.  Tell him if he wants to win multiple majors he needs to tuck in his right elbow more, etc etc.

One thing I am curious about though, is I remember hearing contradictory information about his shot shape.  I remember hearing that he only played a draw, and then another time hearing that he always hits a fade.

Which is it?  I thought last year I figured it out: he plays mostly a fade with his driver and draws his irons (or vice versa).  Anyway, I'd be interested in getting feedback on what his normal shot shape is, if your brain isn't bogged down with too many other things :-D

Graeme is reading this thread and wondering what he got himself into.
