interesting thread. a friend of mine told me today: "i dont understand why my fella cant play good golf...hes very athletic and very very good at all sports naturally except golf"
any thoughts?
That's like me....good anthlete in every sport really cept golf.....
But once you hit that one pure shot you're done....my dad says he can remember the exact moment I was hooked.....11 years old (I think)- 150 yards.....7 iron ended up a foot away....he says he could just see the "wow!" on my face.
...been trying to figure it out ever since, I guess.

Great post Mike! Is human head collection "un-natural?" Couldn't let it go . . .
Here I thought you wouldn't stoop so low - when the pickings are so easy!!! Is there Nothing that is not off limits!! You of all the great meat eaters! The great 12 piece bucket.
BUT to answer your question- my collection will only be "un-natural" when I acquire yours!
In his "Power Golf", he wrote "....when you grip a golf club to take your first swing at the ball every natural instinct you employ to accomplish that objective is wrong, absolutely wrong."
The intent of "hacking", moving the ball through the club with the hands, conflicts with that of "swinging", moving the club through the ball with the hands.
