Bill is a website aficionado who decided to drive up to Maryland from North Carolina after enjoying the website and improving his game with information provided by the site. When he arrived he stated his one great desire, “a good takeaway”. He had taken numerous lessons from pros around a wide region, and had never come away with anything he could apply to his swing and use on the golf course. I think that explaining the takeaway is easy: getting it to happen at full speed is another matter. There were a number of things that Bill thought were new information, especially the need to practice the movement at a fast enough pace that the stress of real shot rotation can be simulated and that improvement can be measured in real time. The action of the hands and wrists in elevating the clubhead was new to Bill as well.
The second major thing you will see is our attention to tempo and rhythm. Bill was way too slow in his backswing, which made his overall swing too slow and completely messed up his rhythm. By the end of the lesson, however, Bill had changed this radically. He recently showed up for a second lesson, and he had managed to improve the pace of his backswing about 50 %, which meant that he had not retained 100% of what we had ended with in the first lesson, but had at least retained half of it, which is a radical difference.
