Dedicating to a Swing


I'm not going to bother with the archive (a few post) of my many experiences with all the swing styles out there. If you can name a swing style, I probably tried it. From TGM, Slicefixer to the new Martinez method (Most Powerful Move). It's just odd how none of them have been the right swing for me. Ha - I'm kidding, it just comes down to the fact that I am a terrible, terrible student.


Being a student of dedication is what I want to be this year. I've dedicated to losing weight - it's on my mind about 80% of the time; honestly - and then there's golf which takes up about 5%, after that we have my second love - soccer. Since tearing my ACL however, soccer is in the background - and unfortunately (as I'm learning to deal) it might stay there for a while. With that said, dedication comes as a facet of maturity - and I think I've arrived at that realization, typically, so very late.


**i've removed the part about Shawn Clement, after yesterday's round - my teacher is my in person teacher, Bob Maher of Overland Park golf club***


I jump into the segway of what I am going to dedicate to - and that is the traditional swing, with pure focus on the short game - where I will definitely get to scratch sooner rather than later.


As of yesterday's round, my handicap is at 13.3 - there is so much room for improvement.


I will dedicate another post to Bob Maher's lesson he provided for me today - I think it deserves it's own after all, the man keeps it so simple - and the consistency will come at full force with me soon.
