    Right now, Francois has placed power in the hands of children with this "reputation" and "infraction" system in place. Personally, I will not be participating in it at all, but I can tell you that the posters you would think would participate in it ARE participating at a feverish pace. It is amazing how many infractions you can accumulate on one post.

    They should know better than to give us these new toys and then leave the room. It's pretty obvious that we need constant adult supervision.

    This is so true. On other forums I'm sure these type of rating and infraction systems would be taken very seriously and used appropriately. But on here we immediately take the piss and start nailing each other just for the hell of it. :D

    I don't like your flippant attitude, mister. I"m considering a reprimand, numerical of course.

    Come on guys pingman doesn't understand you. What he needs to hear is something like " everyone has been focused on increasing their pressure points, the swingers and hitters seem to be at odds, there are a few whose accumulators are out of sync, and the rest are struggling to extend their spine through impact so they are attacking the older generation ( or any other one for that matter)." In otherwords: business as usual.

    Seems like the older guys are having a much easier time keeping their shafts on plane since they've started swinging more erect.

    I'm guessing they've all had appointments to see Alice. I think I'll probably go see Alice too once I need her help.

    I've been reading that book that somebody recommended on here called, "On Learning Golf," by Percy Boomer. I have really liked the simple principles involved in the teaching. I also agree with Boomer's technique in teaching. Here is a quote on how he teaches the swing, "The swing must be considered and felt as a single unity, not as a succession of positions or even a succession of movements. The swing is one and indivisible."

    Now, how different does that sound than the way it is trying to be taught today? Boomer's way of teaching makes more sense to me than trying to break the swing down into several little divisions. There is way to much to think about with that style of teaching and Boomer tries to eliminate thinking in the golf swing and deal more with correct [I]feel[/I].
