2 days with Yoda
My 1st post. Just spent two days with Mr. Blake along with my best golfing buddy Hank Jones in Cuscowilla Ga. Never have I dealt with a more thorough teacher and fine acting gentleman as Mr. Blake. Just wanted to say thanks for a great two days and cannot wait to work with you again in late march. Thanks, Pat Smith

Thanks Mr. Carter. 1st thing I found out was that I was definitely a hitter. Most important info was that i needed to thrust the right shoulder and my right index finger directly to the ball to cut out my over the top move that I had been fighting for two years. Immediately my compression was better and more consistent hits were appreciated.

Very nice, me too!

I never realized you were allowed to use the right side until Yoda and Homer were discovered. It's opened up a whole new world for me, I hope it does for you as well. Whenever you need help, there are a lot of very sharp guys that keep us on the right track. Sometimes even the swingers will help us...

Lynn Blake Certified / The Greensboro Experience

Don't want to encourage a threadjack here, but there were 36 participants at our Lynn Blake Certified Associate training class at Greensboro, NC. The 2-day, 18-hour seminar featured an intense combination of lecture, demonstration and Q&A. The 'programmed learning' workbook that accompanied the 267-slide presentation contained 64 pages of text, diagrams and photos.

Of the 36 participants -- almost all Carolinas Section PGA professionals -- 34 provided written confirmation of their intent to pursue the next level of training, Lynn Blake Certified Instructor.

All that is now in the works. Expect soon a major announcement regarding the Lynn Blake Certified Instructor Program.

ThreadJack Alert Red -- But Not To Worry!
Guys, if you want to reply to my last post now and in this thread, go ahead. We'll move everything over ASAP to one more appropriate.

Sorry, Coach. We'll soon return to your regular programming!

Thanks, Pat. It was great being with you and Hank, and nobody enjoyed our time together more than me.

I truly appreciate your comments. Coming from a "coach's coach" -- Pat has seven state high school baseball championships under his belt! -- they mean even more.
