6) Remember your acquired motion
7) Keep patient!


Great notes Sean. Thanks.

"Play the longest club possible". I love that advice. The guys who have it the other way around are great to play a match against when in strong winds.

Number 4 reminds me of Hogan's "arm shot". As in "Im going to arm me a little 7 iron". We TGM enthusiasts can also note that he didnt Swivel back onto the inclined plane at Finish and employed an Angled Hinge Action. No doubt leaving him with its associated "no roll" feel in the hands. One man's "arm shot" is another man's "no roll" sensation in the hands. Wind or no wind this is a good shot to have in the arsenal.
