For me, a lesson between student and teacher is a very personal thing- and because a video of that lesson only shows the present and not the entire context (past and future)- I find it surprising that any teacher AND their student would feel comfortable enough to show it to ANY audience. After all, what is there for the teacher or the student to gain by such a showing? Certainly, the primary potential for gain is largely on the side of the people that get to view it and possibly learn from it.
It won’t take too many negative posts to reduce the possibility of future videos like this one. Instead of "It would be much more instructive to see Yoda take the student in Ben's lesson and make him look like Collin." Which while that statement might be true, it might sound better presented as "It was great to see you work with a good player - could we see a similar length lesson clip from a player who is a 20 handicap?" Afterall, you already saw the good player. It's just better decorum.
To Lynn: I’ve got to give you credit for being open in regards to what you put up, what you let go up on the forum and what you let go on in the forum-that approach certainly has its associated problems but it’s a refreshing attribute and overall a real plus for you and the site.
To Collin: Thanks for letting us be a part of your lesson with Yoda and keep "ripping it"- sounds like you've got a great game and a promising future in this game. Also, thanks for letting TGM be a part of it- people like yourself - will and can be a major influence on golf and TGM (you've got alot more influence than you could ever imagine).
