Vertically cocking the left wrist to un-cock it and beating my club pro by 3 strokes is fun and easy to do!

Quiet head, quiet knees, quiet feet, Angle Hinge-Impact Fix, You have to fully cock the vertical left wrist to fully un-cock it! I threw the club at the ball! I did it 46 times and then putted 30 times!

8 GIR on the front or within a foot on the fringe and 7 on the back 9, only missing 4 fairways.

What I did well- Quiet Head, knees and feet, Impact Fix, Angle hinge level left wrist, EA below plane, fully extended right arm feeling, fully cock the left wrist and drive PP # 3 to 6 o'clock on the ball-dead aft. Driver 2 inches inside my left heel for a soft fade, 4 inches back for a big draw!

Putted with the Runyon technique Lynn showed me and also putted my chips when close to the fringe-both elbows at my sides so my misses were no more than a ball away within 20 feet-made 2/6 birdies from beyond 10 feet. Played most of my second shots to the middle of the green.

What I did poorly- My PW has become my 120 yard stick and my 9 iron was going 140 yards on the fly today. So I over-clubbed a lot of greens taking myself out of real birdie chances! Made that mistake on 6 holes today!

Anyway, thanks Lynn, gentlemen!

This was really satisfying today, as I beat our club pro by 3 shots "officially."

Last season, I played in our inter-club Gap matches winning all my matches. I also lost a tournament by a playoff hole against a +2 hcp from another club at a regional GAP match. Anyway, I shot a 77 this year the weak before team selection and still did not get selected!

And what really frosts me, was that it was like pulling Godzilla's tale to get a compliment from him! I don't understand how a club pro could be so dense and lack generosity

Next time, I'll beat him by 10 shots!

bts,

1. Start with a dead-straight, 12-inch Putt.

2. Make a complete Three-Station Motion (Address, Top and Finish).

3. Stay On Plane during that Basic Motion (Up, Back and In and Down, Out and Forward) by Tracing (Clubshaft Control) the Plane Line / Target Line with your Right Forearm and Forefinger (which senses the inertia of the Lagging Sweetspot and thus also serves as Clubhead Control).

4. Keep your Left Wrist Flat (Clubface Control) as you proceed through Impact until Both Arms are straight. In other words, Follow-Through.

5. Pick the Ball out of the Hole and repeat nine more times.

At this point, your search has ended. Ten times in a row you have used your Flat Left Wrist, Clubhead Lag Pressure Point and Straight Plane Line to demonstrate total control of the Clubface, Head and Shaft from Address to The Top to The Finish. You may now embrace The Golfing Machine for what it is:

A Complete System for a Lifetime of Better Golf.

From Impact Fix, I cock my flat left wrist up to my shoulder, the same distance and appearance as if I was RFT'ing. I drive my # 3 PP to a selected spot on the ball depending on shot shape desired to both arms straight and a full finish in balance.

My mates ask me if I get tired of being in the middle! "NOPE-middle of the hole!" ICT
