A golf instruction book by someone who's never given a lesson......sounds about right. http://classicsofgolf.com/brandel/ [QUOTE]I am working on an instruction book that is going to change how golfers think about the swing. It will focus on the common positions great golfers share and will show how every golfer can incorporate them into their swing for better ball striking, more consistency, lower scores and maximum enjoyment.[/QUOTE]

"The expert golfer has maximum time to make minimal compensations. The poorer player has minimal time to make maximum compensations." - And no, I'm not Mac. Please do not PM me about it. I just think he is a crazy MFer and we could all use a little more crazy sometimes.

If Chamblee can do it, maybe I should try to publish my own golf book. Mine's is already written too. Folks will buy his, so I have to assume those same folks would also buy mine. :-P

We can take bets on this. I put the over under on 1/3 of the entire book. Then another 1/3 dedicated to saying Butch Harmon is a god. The remaining 1/3 on how biomechanics (like Sean Foley) and technology are ruining golfers.

Damn, I just about wrote the whole thing for him.

We have a winner!  I would add that the forward will be about how to attain a really cool hair style for the camera.

What?  Bashing instruction daily and now he's jumping in thinking a book from him is exempt from his own criticism.  WOW.  He must be broke.  I'm looking forward to the day I don't have to listen to him on GC or anywhere else


He's a prick. I won't spend any money on it.

    • Day 65 - 2024-12-04 Helped @NatalieB with her stuff on the force plates, then hit some balls working on the left wrist stuff. Picking up the club.
    • Day 216 (4 Dec 24) - Dink and roll Weds - working on the green side short game covering 5-10 yd chips to low running pitches to about 50 yds (I have accommodating neighbors).  Focused on keeping stance more narrow, eye target about 2” in front of the ball AND not looking up until I see the ball leave.  This drill has really enhanced my confidence in making more consistent ball strikes.  
    • As a supporter of the European team even though I chose to live in the US, this is kind of good news. I'm pretty close to Bethpage, but won't be going at these prices. Neither will the crazy drunk NY sports fans who would have made this a very difficult place to play as a Euro. The tickets will go to the city types who are entertaining clients and don't care about the money. Many of them are going to sit there and watch, not get all raucous. I am not dumb enough to believe that this is going to be like a Sunday afternoon stroll in the park for the Euros, but I think it will be significantly more subdued as a result of the prices. Even at $250 I would probably have been watching on the TV anyway so no real skin in the game.
