If you are brand new to the game of golf or
have reached a plateau in your scoring, then this may be the most important
letter you ever read.
If you have played for some time and are
looking to end years of frustration and inconsistency, or are determined to
break below a scoring level be it 100, 90, 80 or 70, then I am eager to show
you how to do just that. Before we get started, let me tell you a
little about my background in this great game of golf as my experience and
expertise is multifaceted.
I am a professional Golf Ball DesignEngineer by trade and have worked for the industry leaders in that
arena (you know the names). Chances are you may have played with balls
that incorporated my designs, and my contributions have been recognized by the
United States Patent Office.
I also write extensively on golf topics
including instruction, equipment, and top players. My work has been
featured in dozens of publications and industry websites including Today’sGolfer Magazine, The New York Times, Livestrong, The Right Way, eHow, GolfLink, AusGolf, and other prominent golf info channels.
Those credentials aside, my real passion is
playing the game and teaching it to others. In fact, the word obsession
may more closely describe my interest in instruction.
This is, of course, why you are reading this
letter. You are seeking to take your game to a new level.
So let me tell you a bit about my introduction
to playing this game as it will show you what ispossible in your own pursuit of agreat swing and lowerscores.
You may be happy to know that I wasn’t born
with a golf club in my hands. I was never on the Mike Douglas show
hitting balls with Bob Hope at 4 years of age (like Tiger). I didn’t play
junior, high school, or college golf. In fact I had little interest in the gameof golf the first 23 years of my life.
This all changed one hot summer evening when
my father dragged me to the local driving range as he was preparing for a
league match the next day.
After hitting 20 balls or so he handed me an
old persimmon driver and said, “Here, you give it a try”.
After 5 swings and a string of expletives, I’d
missed one, banged a few off the side of the stall, and managed a slice so
violent it crawled up the right side range netting and headed out toward the
street.
Not a great start to my golf career. But
before the night was through, I had managed to get a few out there into the
dark sky. And that sound off the driver was, well, quite cool.
So the next day I flipped through a few Golf
Digests that were lying around the house, studied a few pictures, and headed
back out to the range the same night.
