[Part 4] Golf Mastery and other thoughts…
You can read the previous posts over here Back to the 15th hole and that long putt. I was inspired by Baddeley’s putting performance and the fact I was the guy who had showed him the technique that is now described as “look and shoot”. My philosophy is simple… … look at the hole, get…
It’s time to sacrifice a little …
Automatic golf simplifies the game. It takes the very complicated and gives you a way of making it easier and more enjoyable. More reliable too. With simplification comes sacrifice. You can’t play the game and still be concerned with your backswing. Does it really matter if you take the club back a little on the…
[Part 3] Path to Golf mastery
You can see the previous golf mastery articles here. Back the the 13th hole. I was now 5 down with 6 holes to play. It wasn’t ideal that’s for sure, but where there’s life there’s hope. I took my 7 iron, aimed to the left, hooded the club slightly and swung freely. The ball came…

I have missed this…
Late last year I took a break from writing on my blog. I felt I was spending too much time crafting stories and sharing my ideas. But I’ve missed it. To be fair, I was busy on some other projects but those are now under control. But I’m back and looking forward to writing my…
[My brain hurts] Golf Technique Conundrum
I have had a break from Golfgooroo for the last month. And I’ve enjoyed it. A chance to refresh the batteries and focus on some other important projects. In fact, over the last month I don’t think I’ve ever written and worked as much (work is certainly a four letter word). It seems every year…
