Thanks, Sean Foley!

Friday, May 27, 2011
We get lots of mail with, um, constructive criticism. It's really nice to get some full-fledged praise. Here's one on the recent Sean Foley tips. 

DownloadedFile-2.jpegI wanted to thank you and Sean Foley for his 5 tips! They work! The towel under the arms is hard to do on the way back to the ball, but if you do it right you hit it solid and gain distance. The pencil on the end of the club tip really helped on chips and pitches, it keeps you from flipping the club. I am four and five strokes better and happy! Looking at Tiger to see him do it. I saw he was quitting on his putts so it helped me to release. It works!

As someone with a tender back, I'd also recommend Foley's tips on saving your back, explained well in this video by Golf Digest Instruction Editor Peter Morrice. What's more, some of our web site's most interesting comments, often from teaching professionals, accompany the Foley articles. Foley's ties to Stack and Tilt, and the precedents for some of his instruction dating to players such as Ben Hogan and Gardner Dickinson, make for lively back and forth.
