Now I can work on different things as well. Instead of working doggedly just on my swing, I can now practice that for a bit and move onto other things like working the ball, trying to replicate real round situations, chipping, etc. It's like the old saying, perfect practice makes perfect. I've become sort of like Hogan in the sense that I really enjoy practicing because I am infatuated with the feeling of hitting it flush which now I can do repeatedly because my alignments are much more precise. I do look at it like I don't want to be out-worked by somebody else. But the key is that since my results are so much more precise, hitting balls is now a beautiful thing to experience. 3JACK It's wonderful to have a blueprint for the swing, something you can see in black and white to help you when you are having problems, or even just to try something new. I really appreciate Rich's efforts to help us better understand that blueprint, for anyone who hasn't been following his blog, you need to! Thanks Rich, Kevin __________________ I could be wrong.
