Congrats for achieving this great thing. Your story inspired me to work on my game more logically and so far i am noticing improvments. And whats better is i am noticing the faults also. A few days ago i shot an 88 which beat my previous best my 8 shots. Pretty pleased seenas i only played for 3 months. In your article it said you watched a recording of someones golf swing. I really wanted to check the guy out as i think its a great idea but can't remember his name.... Thanks.. Rob. Hey john, loved reading your story in todays golfer.

I have just read with great intrest the article about your challenge in todays golfer. my name is david and i am a 45 year golfer I too have set my own challenge! i have been a scratch golfer, but 2 years ago i contracted MS. After my 1st attack i was left enable to walk for 3 months. after building myself up i managed a few holes, then progressed to a full round after a few months. i had my handicap reassesed and was given a handicap of 10. I still had problems breaking 90 because my swing was shall we say was individaul before i got ill. i had to change to a more technically correct swing to enable to play again. after finding a excellent coach i have made progress to the point that i shot a pair of 75s in our club championship last year coming 2nd. (i was baeten by 1 shot). this reduced my handiacap to 8. Well here is my challenge. (set by my partner nikki she has been my rock when i was told i would never play again, she gave me the support and courage to try again).Anyway my challenge is to get down to 1/scratch in 5 years so i can try to qualify for the British seniors open as an amatuer. like you i have been told this is impossible, many reasons are given from my disiabilty to no one can get that good with so many problems. But i belive i can do this, i can no longer work full time so have many oppertunites to practice and play! I cant hit thousands of balls a week but do practice short game a lot. After reading your article i have now a added zeal to do this to show myself and all the doubters that have been holding me back recently that it can be done. I would love to read your book and pick your brain on how you achived your amazing feat. I would love to learn the mental keys you leant to maximise your practice time as i belive this is key to me completing my challenge. i would love you to contact me by e-mail to discuss this more!!!!! Many thanks for your insperation and look forward to hearing from you. Your Dave. Dear John.

You took a challenge, worked hard and finally succeed. I'm sure you got the same clubs from the beginning to the end of your crazy year, not finding excuses for bad results in a material problem. Too many golfers seen on the practice range prefer spending thousands of dollars in a driver and high quality balls instead of taking regularly lessons with a pro and really improve their game. I had a back injury last summer and couldn't play full swing for more than 2 months. Was it an excuse for wasting my time watching TV and complaining about my back? No, I spent hours and days improving my chip&putt game. Your example will definitely be kept in my mind for the coming seasons and a motivation for hard work on the practice range.
