Golfers have been practicing to over come swing frustrations and problems created by short clubs. As a result the golf swing is an unnatural execution that causes the body to twist, turn and lunge forward unnaturally during the swing. No one have been able to control or perfect the timing of this in unnatural swing execution and motion. All golfers are athletes in their own natural way, they gave this up once they started playing golf with short clubs.
As long as there are short clubs in your bag you will comtinue to bend over and play with uncertainty and frustration.
Every golfer out there only practices and plays with these faults.
The difference in length from a pitching wedge to a three iron is approx 10 inches.
When you play different length clubs, your body costantly changes angles and height to accomodate length of club. Club lengths control swing height and angles, creating resistence and constant vertical and horizontal montion when you swing. Lengthen your clubs, remain at your natural height and you will over come frustration and reach your goals. This is not magic, its logic and the future in golf.

Over the top is the result of a steep spine angle caused by short clubs. Lengthen your clubs, stand up, relax knees and walk feet away from grip/hands. Remain at your natural height, your shoulders rotate around your center axis, not on an upward rocking swing path. A natural swing stance transfers your weight naturally, restores power, lowers your swing plane naturally arms/club set up on the inside path, inline to the target. This is what past and present golf teachers have failed to recognize, correct and teach. Hawkeye golf alignment system(hegasys.net) corrects and teaches this natural concept. Your are a natural athlete, not a swing machine.

Golf is one the most expensive and most technical games of the world. There should be no problem giving it the crown of the greatest game ever but we should also reconsider other games.

I didn't even imagine that this might be so exciting! Thank you for this interesting post!

Nice One
Thanks for great stuff

Golf is a great game, no two ways about it. Golf has stood up to two world wars,the great depression and will no doubt come out on top in spite of the problems of today.

Golf poses many challenges and that's what makes it great. The challenges are difficult but surmountable, making triumph on the golf course one of the most rewarding experiences ever!

I'm going to take the time to write to all of the teachers on this list (or as many as possible before the back nines of Tiger's and Lorena's bids to win their respective tournamments from 5 shots back) to ask this question. As far as I know, my Over The Top Golf swing is the only method available that teaches you how to swing over the top correctly instead of trying to fix the renowned swing flaw.

It has been said that 80% of all golfers swing from over the top and most instructors concede that they always will.

As no golf instructor is willing to admit that they really can't help these (mostly) 15-35 handicappers, what, from a practical standpoint, can you do for them?

Nice post

A lot of greit books that can learn you how to play golf.

Golf will giveth and quite easily taketh away. Ever had a bad round and yet play great on the last two holes? Just enough to bring you back with a renewed sense of confidence that your past "golf problems" are finally fixed.

But it truly is a game for life. Kudos to old Tom Morris.

I think you have done the game justice with what you have said. I don't believe I have ever hated this game but I do know that I love it an can't ever get enough of it. It is never the same day in and day out. I also love my father for introducing me to this wonderful game.

When Winston Churchill said that Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose he probably was not way off the mark. Despite that, no matter how hard you scratch your head you would struggle to find a sport which is more addictive than the game of golf. Perhaps this is one game where over a period of four hours you would probably be witness to the entire spectrum of Human emotions that one could possibly see and no matter how good one gets at this game the game bites back before you know it. Even the best have to keep their feet firmly on the ground.

There are many who genuinely believe there could be no more boring sport than this one but give them a golf bag and a free run on a golf course for a few hours and before you know it you have a convert. It is a fascinating sport that has engulfed our imagination for the last 400 odd years, from being a small sport played in Scotland to a sport which has addicts worldwide, it’s a game that will rule our hearts for years to come. Nothing describes the addiction for the game better than the following anecdote-:
At his wedding the groom turned up at the altar with his golf bag in tow. When the bride asked him why the hell was his golfing equipment there, he quipped “this isn’t going to take all day is it.”

With technology and the MUCH higher fitness levels of these golfers, they are making these holes look silly. Amatuers can do similar things with their local courses if they prepared the way the pros do. I.E. Practice, Fitness, Playing Strategic Golf.

As a 3 handicapper and 58 year old avid golfer, I can tell you that I don't play 450 yard holes with a driver and a wedge. Some young players can hit it 350 yards, but the average player is still hitting less than 260 off the tee. The tour players should have a shorter PGA ball and the rest of us will still find today's courses plenty challenging.

A shorter PGA ball would be a good idea--but you have got to remember ball endorsements are important for PGA players. To make it work, the players will need to be compsensated for lost endorsement money at any tournament that uses the shorter ball. This could be particularly important for the marginal players who struggle to make the cut and earn any official money.

Amen Alex! The ladies looked a bit amateurish and as if they were appearing in an off-season event.

Change the course if it's too hilly!

Shanks is right about amateurs still shooting similar scores. Chipping and putting is what saves you, not an extra 30 yards off the tee.

I love the tenor of the post but pinching the fairways where the long hitters drive it is not the answer. They tried that at Carnoustie (site of the infamous Van de Velde collapse) and it produced what many consider the worst major championship set-up in history. Even the R&A has admitted that. For years Jack Nicklaus has been asking for a reduced flight ball for Touring pros. That seems the best way to go. Statistics seem to prove that despite all of the technological advances, we non-scratch amateurs still shoot similar scores.
