OK, let me start off by saying i bought the following book not to learn the swing but because the concept intrigued me plus i quite like David Leadbetter (just cos he's an old fashioned english ex pat). I ordered a used, mint condition copy of The A Swing the other week for £10.98 (company selling gives a percentage to a child literacy charity so win win) and it arrived Friday last. Didnt have time to start reading so had a leaf though to look at the pictures (as you do) and was happy out how excellent the condition was.

As i was closing the book it flipped to the blank page inside the cover and what i found was quite a suprise (to me at least)

Now, either Peter wasnt the biggest fan of Dave or he's traded in the wrong book. Book is now back in the bag it came in waiting for the inevitable day when David goes to the great clubhouse in the sky and i can flog it on ebay.....who know's, i may even double my money ;-).

    • I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.
    • Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.
    • Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
    • Oh yea, now I remember reading about you on TMZ!
