Some words last long

with all the knowledge and research that floods the golfing world these days you often need to have the done the study to be a PGA pro to decipher its use
This isn’t necessarily a bad thing as the Information Age has allowed coaches from opposite sides of the world to share thoughts and discussion but it does mean I often refer pupils to books that look more at how to build the journey while playing and practicing better
A huge amount of my growth as an amateur was shaped by the information in the Middlecoff, Nicklaus and Penick books. They talk virtually nothing about technique yet made me practice better, review my performance objectively and view the game for what it is
Like so much writing about sport in general it’s the journey and experience which shapes attitude and enhances habit which then makes the technical worthwhile
We need a golf swing to play golf but we must never forget that golf is the game not swing
