Dear Friend,
My name is Stuart Johnson, and I am about to tell you how my life has changed dramatically! First, let me tell you a little about myself. I am a 42 year old art dealer that has been trying to play golf for about 25 years. I say trying because I feel that once you know what I know about golf, you too will understand the true game of golf.
Let me give you an example of what I am talking about. When I was younger and attending school, I had this one particular professor who was really tough. Although greatly respected for his top position in the department, none liked him. He just didn't seem fair. When we had our mid-term, we would have to ask him what it would cover. He would usually reply, " absolutely everything that's been read, written, and spoken of regarding the course up to now!"
Sure, that sounds reasonable, but when we had eight books that were as thick as the bible, we would just be overwhelmed by studying all of it. We would then get tested on something we just barely remembered. How much of that course do you think I actually learned. A lot of nothing, absolute zip!!
The point is . . .
How can you do well in a test
if you don't know exactly
What to study!!!
Or maybe I did learn something -- Fear, jealousy, and resentment for someone who knew more than I about something and absolutely rubbed it in my face. This is how I learned about one of life's interesting rules.
Knowledge is Power!
Let us imagine something. Do you really think the local golf professional is going to tell you about techniques in the swing, and that's if he knew. That would make you just as good as him or even better.
Even if the upper ranks in the golf industry had the knowledge of these techniques mastered, do you think they would be so eager to tell you.
Absolutely not!
They would lose prestige, power, and even money in their sport.
Some of the touring greats know about these techniques. Do you know what they have to say about it. Not much!!! And when they do say something about the techniques, it's usually the stuff that's already out there. They're just not talking about the nitty gritty hard core facts. The stuff that makes the difference!!!
You see, and I am sure I'm not telling you something you don't already know, golf magazines are in the business to sell magazines and advertisement. Golf club manufacturers are in the business to sell golf equipment. Now, do you think these guys want you to stop looking for that elusive magic golf club or gimmick or whatever it may be?
Absolutely not!
That would be financial suicide.
I, like many others have gone through too much of the wrong golf instruction. Of course, some of it helped, but it never let me gain confidence in the game. Does the thought of spending hundreds of dollars for golf equipment, gimmicks, and videos sound familiar. I'm more guilty than you could imagine. The problem is that...
You can't buy a golf swing, you have to learn it.
You see, I love what I do, and in my profession, it's not uncommon that I am around very wealthy and intimidating people. But what you may not know is that I have a way of getting even. I have the knowledge. All I have to do is get them on the golf course, and they're mine. They become just another person out on that turf. And boy, if one were evil, one could really take advantage of them.
I remember when I would just about go into a panic out on the course. My reputation as a businessman and just another player was being shot to pieces with my bad golf game. I felt embarrassed and would make tons of excuses not to play. Even my friends would crack jokes. Some friends!
It's different now!
I spend as much time out there as I can. With my new game, I can go out there and have fun and also kick some butt! You may be wondering why I'm telling you about my new game and all this other stuff. I see too many people suffering out there on the golf course.
I have been able to convince some of my friends, and they are really getting tough to play against. My friend and I won the championship flight at the annual Ventana Canyon's shoot-out in Tucson, Arizona. You could impress your friends just as I have. The reason why I am telling you my story and experience is so that you may also succeed and enjoy this beautiful and healthy sport.
Golf is to be enjoyed.
With all things, there is good news and there is bad news.
First the good news! The techniques that I command in the golf swing were taught to me by a fellow who just got tired, like myself, of the powers that be in the golf industry. When I was first introduced to the new techniques, my scoring average was roughly 90. My five iron would only go about 160 yards, and it would either fade or slice uncontrollably. I don't really think I could properly express my frustrations.
About a little more than a year later and a lot of practice, my scoring average has come down to a solid 74. My irons are now powerfully consistent, and my driver goes well over 250 yards. And it's a blast!!!
The really good news is that these techniques are easy to understand.
The bad news is that most of the techniques taught are completely unnatural to instincts and swing mechanics. It does take some getting used to. I remember the first week after I was introduced to these proper swing techniques, I snuck out on the driving range. And after about 150 of the lousiest shots I had ever made, something clicked. My ball started to draw and the hits became more consistent and stronger. The more familiar I was with the swing, the more natural it felt. You just have to feel the difference in power. It's great!
Let me just tell you a little about the guy who decided to put these techniques on video. To say that his game is good is simply an understatement. And I don't think I'll ever be able to convince him to compete with the best. I know he feels as if they don't deserve to see the truth if they haven't already figured it out and kept it to themselves.
The training model includes the following:
Know how to release the wrist for greatly increased power.
Through understanding supination you will learn to increase distances in each club you use.
Use golf clubs to hit the ball toward target instead of at the ground.
Beat the mediocrity of golf and find out why the majority of golfers don't play well.
Find out why the poor golfers miss-hits are terrible and raise the efficiency of your miss-hits.
Learn the swing path and angle of attack for more power and consistency.
Know when the energy of the golf club goes toward target that it is impossible to not transfer your weight properly.
These techniques will help you be able to:
Hit the golf ball square and hard at impact and learn how to stop slicing the ball.
Know why and how to draw the golf ball consistently and drop a minimum of 7 shots from your handicap and gain the respect associated with good players.
Earn the bragging rights from your friends.
Have confidence in your golf game and relax while you play.
Earn the respect from your peers and succeed on the course.
Really improve and enjoy your experiences on the golf course.
Like many of us who have used these techniques, the greatest fear I had was to change, not only to change, but for the better with the true knowledge. And with the changing of your swing mechanics you, with practice, can really enjoy yourself out there on the golf course.
