That would be Components #1 and #2, the
Grip.
And, 1-L #1 and #2,
Centered Arc.

I applaud every self-effort to improve and learn, but for a seeker to think that they can reach their true potential all by themselves is a dillusion. The truth is . . .
They cannot.

The great artists of the world have been trained, most for virtually their entire lives. And the majority of these greats -- from the ice to the piano -- can trace their instruction (and its lineage) for many years, if not generatations. In golf, if asked,

"From
Morrison to
Picard to
Grout to me."
That lineage alone spans eighty years.
