I have one of those tapes, he has a nice swing, but... Bird makes a good point- most instructors don't hit balls on their instruction tapes and many can't play a "Competitive" round of golf. “Competitive" golf puts the swing under pressure where all the technique taught is accountable. Wayne DeFrancesco who writes for “GolfStyles”, once called Washington Monthly and is one of the best non-TGM instructors, has for years wrote that an instructor needs to play competitive golf not only to see if he and his teaching can stand up to the pressure but to also Learn more about golf and the swing to be a better instructor for his students. I laugh at some big names that dare not to swing at a ball on their tapes or shows.
McLean and Butch still swing. Ballard doesn’t even stand near a ball. And of course you have to pry the club away from Lynn or your lesson tee exposes the low, low point plane line forever.
