I’ll be the first to admit, I really don’t like sharing to much insight into what our training is like. But, my boy Aiden has been putting in the work.

As you have seen, I’ve made tons of posts about keys to “Fleetwood Pattern”. Now you can listen to what he says about his swing. Certainly would be interesting to read your thoughts! Remember, what one feels and what one really does is normally very different.

Payne Stewart showing a great drill to stop coming over the top. Payne is hitting a 3-iron and Charlie Rymer is giving him grief about not taking a divot. Some fun while giving a great drill.
