He was playing poorly and in danger of losing his PGA TOUR card. That year, he met my student and LBG friend, Mark Blackburn, PGA, GSEM, and a partnership was formed that would transform his game. Before the year was out, Heath won the Southern Farm Bureau Classic and in 2006 would post career-high official money winnings of $1,180,681. http://www.pgatour.com/players/02/22...dia-guide.html This year, he is off to a red-hot start. With back-to-back top-10s -- a 4th at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic and a 6th at the FBR Open -- and one top-20 in his first three starts, he has won $505,000 and leads the PGA TOUR in Scoring Average. "Leads the PGA TOUR in Scoring Average." Has a nice ring to it, don't you think? Here are a few photos of Heath and Mark gettin' it done on Tuesday. I filmed some video in the afternoon, including a Q&A on what they're working on. We'll get it up soon! #1 Mark and Heath still dressed for an early morning Florida chill. #2 Their own 'Battle Central' located at the far end of the range. #3 Sharing a laugh between two stations. #4 Heath in a 'Slow-Mo' drill programming his entire stroke. This is after Start Up and into the Backstroke. Check out the bag in the lower left corner...would those be dowels? #5 The Finish of a fine golf shot. #6 More 'Slow-Mo.' This time, at the Top (Hands at Right Shoulder and On Plane). #7 'Slo-mo' drill -- at Release. BTW, in the background, that's Brian Mogg working with Joe Durant. #8 A beautiful Pivot with a centered Head position. If anybody is wondering what we teach, you're looking at it. And on golf's biggest stage. #9-#11 Mark tweaking the 'Slow-Mo' alignments (at Address and Release). #12 Back at it after lunch. No need for those pullovers now! Results? In Thursday's opening round, Heath shot a blistering 3-under par 68 and is T-6 in a 144-man field of the game's greatest players. Congratulations, guys, keep it going! But don't get too comfortable, 'cuz... Brian Gay is only a shot back at 69! Only at lynnblakegolf.com! This place is amazing! I noticed Yoda that you have a green id tag, very nice! __________________ "In my experience, if you stay with the essentials you WILL build a repeatable swing undoubtedly. If you can master the Imperatives you have a champion" (Vikram). The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts) mrodock View Public Profile Send a private message to mrodock Find all posts by mrodock
