Here is a piece I posted on the
Chuck Evans site a few days ago.

as an opportunity and we immediately started.
The Good News here is that once you get right the reasonably few Mission
Critical Alignments, a host of Stroke-plaguing positions and Motions
simply evaporate. And I do mean evaporate -- as in 'gone...never to be
seen again' -- unless, of course, you deliberately recall them for purposes
of demonstration.
The Golf Stroke is a set of precision Mechanics executed by human
Feel. The Mechanics are the stuff of science. The Execution -- the
human element -- is the stuff of art.
Golf Instruction is also an art. The competent teacher can 'see'
through the numerous problems and determine the root errors. Student
and teacher then work together to correct each error in the proper sequence.
Only in this manner can there be sustained and permanent progress.
It does little good to focus on an error that itself is the product of
an error. Again, when change is correctly sequenced, many 'downstream' errors
cease to exist. Those that remain are targeted as priority dictates and time
allows.
This is the approach Martee and I pursued, and it is why his Makeover yielded
its spectacular results.
