Wasn't Mr. Nicklaus' teacher, Jack Grout, an Alex Morrison man?
Actually, Jack Grout was a student of Henry Picard. Who, in turn, was a student of Alex Morrison. Which makes Jack Nicklaus a Morrison student 'twice removed.'
Alex Morrison was a revolutionary in his day. So much so that his concepts survive to our own:
-- The Stationary Head as taught to Jack N. by Jack G. holding a handful of ten-year-old hair.
-- Balance as taught through the Rolling of the Ankles back and through.
-- The Pivot and Arm Swing combining as the Rotational Power of Centrifugal Force.
The genealogy extends to those influenced by the first Authorized Instructor of The Golfing Machine,Ben Doyle:
-- 'Ben behind his student' on video was motivated by 'Alex behind (then Tour-Star) Henry' for the cameras of a Morrison book.
-- Ben's Right Foot pidgeon-toed Address Routine is another page right out of the same book.
