I think that day sealed our collective fate. Later, he asked me if I'd like to do some golf schools with him. I think I said "yes" before he finished the sentence. I was afraid that I might have sounded a little too eager. But, the rest is history. I hope to stay joined at his hip, until he has me surgically removed. If you're around him and you're not learning, you're not listening.
The relationship between Ted and me is a two-way street. I have learned as much from him as he has learned from me. And we have a ball doing it.
Just last weekend, for example, I had finished for the day and walked up to Ted with his lesson in progress. He started a sentence to the student, and then suddenly turned and nodded at me to finish it. I did and then came right back with a sentence of my own which he then finished. We 'back and forthed' like this a couple more times, and then did the same thing with various Stroke Mechanics. I'd start a Hinge Action or the Basic Motion or whatever, and he'd finish it. And then vice versa.
About that time, the now drop-jawed student said, "You guys ought to take that on the road."
If you're around him and you're not learning, you're not listening.
