Late this afternoon (Saturday), I was in The Golf House Grill at Cuscowilla with the Head Professional and my student, a prominent European professional golf instructor. It was the end of a long and very satisfying two days of learning golf. As we watched on TV, Brian prepared to play his bunker shot at 17.

The TV camera showed us his lie, and I could see the height of the lip and the distance to the short-sided pin.

"Watch closely." I said. "This will be an Acquired Motion Stroke [half swing] with very little wristcock. He will finish at Follow-Through (both arms straight) with the Clubhead remaining beneath his hands. The ball will finish close."

And so it happened.

It was the same shot I had taught my student earlier in the day.

Said Mr. Kostis from the tower:

"I would have expected more motion there."
