Ball Placement

We were muttering at the driving range the other day when Coach K happened to be behind us.


“How come,” we were thinking aloud, “every club sends the ball the same distance?”

“Ball placement,” he said, as he walked by on his way to pay attention to the next student in line at the driving range.

Hmmm. Ball placement. So simple and so elegant.

This just might be the answer to many of our problems.

Big misses on the putting green? Ball placement.

Lousy tee shots? Ball placement.

Pot holes, greenhouse gases, the hole in the ozone layer? Ball placement.

Why are we here and why can’t we all just get along? Ball placement.

Would someone please notify the proper authorities? This could be the answer humankind has been seeking since the dawn of time.

Ball placement.

200 Things


Coach K told us today that 200 things have to happen in just the right way to make a good golf swing.  Hands, feet, body, brain in sync.

Yikes.

No wonder we’re still in Golf I.
