About four years ago, I got my best lessons from an assistant at our place...and while he never used the words, "you've got to give up control to gain control" - this is essentially what he taught me.

It was the weirdest set of lessons I've ever had and led me to the best golf of my life.

Being a Type A, this was really hard for me to do....

And like you, it was SO hard to continue with it. All of my instincts are telling me to get the club 'under control'...

Well the guy was from Ohio and settled down here in Alabama. Met a local girl and got engaged. Told me it was time for "a regular job with no working on weekends'.

So he quit golf and got a job as an industrial salesman. I saw him a year ago and he loves his job, his new wife and the fact that he has quit being a golf pro. (Plays a ton though)...

I am going to get the book though because my gut tells me this is the method he was teaching.

He told me he spent three years working in Naples, FL learning to teach this method...

(and BamaGolfer, this has nothing to do with Natural Golf which is an entirely different animal)
