Teachers Tournament

[YodasLuke]

I am too far away to make it happen. The only AI in India. You guys can do it in USA and I will be there. Whenever it happens.
Planning a trip to the USA for my GSEM. Also plan to meet up with Yoda and Yodasluke. Are you listening in Yoda?. Love to get it all in while i am there. Its half way around the world. Doing the GSEB was a blast. The best money I have ever spent. Need to spend some more GOOD MONEY!!

Teaching after I got back to New Delhi in Feb 2005 after completing the GSEB was on a steady upward graph. Students just kept and keep coming in. Ametuers pros and kids. Hands full and flying high. Other pros keep asking- what on earth are you teaching man?????? Only if they knew.
Need a breather and no better way to breathe than to learn more of TGM.

We'll be happy to welcome you to the swamp. I hope you can make it happen.

Give me 8 more weeks and count me in.

Is that a "standing eight count" ?

I'd play anyone but Sally. I'd attack the throats of all involved, except for that sweet lady. I don't know if I could go for blood with Yoda, either...

What's Sally Little's connection to the golfing machine?

Sally Little was a student of Tom Tomasello. After working with Tom she went on to win one of the women's majors, the du Maurier Classic.
She gave Tom credit for helping her on a TV interview after the tournament.

Geezzzz Lagster I wish I would have known that before the LPGA championship....I had several opportunities to talk with her on the driving range a month ago. If I manage the driving next year, I will definitely strike up a conversation with her about Tomasello.

Thanks for the info...

One of the Tour ladies that I teach has been freinds with Sally for more years than she'd like to admit. She's a nice lady...

Ditto on Sally Little being a very nice lady------sometime in the early 90's I took my wife and 9 year old daughter to an LPGA tournament. We were just hanging around the practice putting green when one of the golfers came over, picked up one of the balls she was using, signed it, and handed it to my daughter--it was Sally Little. We still have the ball in a display case. I still remember the smile and surprise on my daughter's face. Sometimes just little things make a big difference........Dr Dave

Very interesting thing in the newspaper today. With the PGA Tour in town this week, they had the Open Qualifier for the U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee yesterday at a local course near me and the results were:

1st - Kevin Streelman, Winfield, IL 33 32 65 Qualified
2nd - Joseph Affrunti, Crystal Lake, IL 31 35 66 Qualified
2nd - Brian Payne, Flossmoor, IL 32 34 66 Qualified
4th - Gary March, Arlington Heights, IL 33 34 67 Qualified

And way down near the end:

96th - Mac O'Grady, Palm Springs, CA 39 44 83

I'd like to see his action right now to see what the heck he's doing. I don't know if he tried to master every variation, or if he tried to be both hitter and swinger. It doesn't make sense that someone of that ability couldn't find it, when it's in bold print in the book.

Is Mac playing right or left handed now? At one time he could play very well from either side. He won both of his tour events from the right side.

I don't know why either... why he would shoot a score like that. At one time he was one of the best ball strikers around.

I agree. People would marvel at his ability. Me included.
