The false paradigm of golf swing bio mechanics



A tiny percentage of the golfing population – the tour and club pros and high level amateurs – can strike the ball solidly and mostly straight with a remarkable degree of skill and consistency. In stark contrast, the vast majority* of golfers and would-be golfers flail away, with the satisfying ‘click’ of solid contact and precise, penetrating ball flight occurring only once or twice in a round golf, usually on the last hole to lure them back for more torture! [*According to National Golf Foundation statistics, the average golf score is currently 100 and has been for decades, with only 22 percent of golfers ever able to score below 90.]
