For a long time … For a long time instructors taught students to have the feeling you were “sitting” on a bar stool. I always believed we should have been teaching people to feel as though you were “leaning” back on a stool. The last thing you would ever want to do is sit in golf. Sitting will cause the golf club to swing too level to the ground in the downswing, and you will have a tendency to hit the ground behind the golf ball. w w w (dot) golferbreak80 (dot) c0m

Bobby Jones retired … Bobby Jones retired from golf at 28 to pursue a career in law actually, not because he couldn’t putt. (In fact, Jones was revered as being able to work miracles with the flat-stick.)
