"I
have been golfing for nearly 6 years now. The best description of my game
would be long periods of frustration interrupted by brief and unfortunately
fleeting moments of perfection. It is those fleeting moments of perfection
that keep me coming back. It is the 7 iron that falls softly by the cup.
It is the driver that leaps from your club face flying effortlessly past
the 150 marker landing in the middle of the fairway. It is the round when
you can't miss a putt when you are in a zone and the line on the green
seems to jump out at you. It is these rare moments that capture you and
keep you coming back. They keep you coming back because you get a taste
of what golf could be, not what it is. For me golf was a battle of wills
mine and the balls. No matter how hard I tried, no matter how much effort
I exerted, no matter how loud I cursed, the balls will was almost
always stronger than mine. Then I learned a simple yet profound lesson.
You have to give up control to gain control. How could this be? Give up
control to gain control. Under the guidance of Ron Sisson, founder of
Real Swing Golf, I explored this thought. Before I could give up control
I had to discover what it was I was trying to control. With the patience
and wisdom that years of teaching experience brings; Ron led me down a
road of discovery. It was a road that allowed me to leave the burdens
of the traditional golf world behind. Keep your head down, slow your swing
down, keep your elbows in, push your hands out, don't bend your knees,
do bend your knees, all the years of advice that I had been given by amateurs,
pros, infomercials and instructional videos were set aside and all that
was left was one important realization. Feel the club head. The simplicity
of the Ron Sisson's Real Swing approach is startling. It really shouldn't
be this simple. It should take me years of practice and involve exorbitant
teaching fees and the latest overpriced technology before I could completely
change my swing, before I could consistently achieve the elusive indescribable
sweet shot. It shouldn't take 10 minutes. Yet it did. My only caution
to you who are looking for the answer is that you might find it. You might
actually play a round of golf confidently and peacefully. You might be
sitting in the 19th hole with a smile on your face and a warmth in your
heart. Sound a little corny maybe but let me ask you one question- isnt
that really why we play this silly game? The Real Swing Golf method taught
by Ron Sisson teaches the game of golf in its simplest and truest form.
If we are going to swing a club and pay our hard earned money to play
this game, don't we deserve at the very least to enjoy it. I would encourage
everyone to spend an enjoyable hour learning the game of golf the way
it should be taught - The REAL SWING WAY."-
