  1. Where did the ball fly? Do you know how to spin a ball left or right at will? Target and trajectory dictate what your body has to do to create any shot.
  2. As for anger management, our emotions are driven by how we picture things in our mind. Change the picture and you change your emotion. What are you picturing in your mind when you erupt? Most who have anger issues place far too much importance on outcomes and as a result are very controlling. The way to gain control is to let go of it consciously. I represented Bruce Crampton for many years. Bruce is an Australian HOF player who won 7 times in his rookie season on the Champions Tour. I had him on my public radio show to discuss that feat and how he achieved it. His total commitment to positive thinking and mastering visualization were the key factors in his performance. Find a simple motion that will put the ball in play right where you want it. That doesn't mean 500 yard 9 irons. It means within your given stature and ability. If you can hit your longest shot only 200 yards but can land it in a area the size of a two car garage every time, who's going to beat you? No one. Don't punish yourself for being human. Get proactive about how you think. Ask yourself all day every day, what positive benefit am I getting out of doing this or thinking this way? By keeping yourself positive and seeking out simple solutions you will be on your way to success in all you do. As for putting, this is what has worked with tour players I know; for any putt over 10 feet in length aim for a kiddie pool, i.e. a 5 foot circle surrounding the cup. Get the ball in that circle leaves you a 2 1/2 putt. You will soon eliminate 3 putts by doing this. If you need help on taking control of your thinking my book "Winning Thinking" can be a great value. The stuff in that book literally saved my life. Keep smiling and hit 'em straight!
  3. The best technology is ball flight. If you know how the tool (golf club face) works the ball flight will tell you immediately what you did.
  4. I teach what Hogan's only pupil, John Schlee taught me. The pic above is from your video just past impact. You are using your upper body to throw your hands at the ball. You would do better to think of dragging the club head through. Think of throwing a bucket of water at someone's face who is standing on your target line.
