There are countless fabulous golf instructors. Where are they? Are they hiding under the rocks like the financial adviser who took his retirement fund?

They say there are five fundamentals to golf. There is only one. Let’s say your golf pro looks at his setup and sees that his shoulders are aligned to the left. He then sees you take the stick out and at the top your left wrist is cupped. Then you go down from the outside to the inside, cut the ball and cut repeatedly. Ask yourself this: “Is it in my golf pro’s best financial interest to cure all of this instantly or would I make more money by letting me suffer for the rest of my life in chronic agony?” Ask him?

OK The time has come to put yourself out of your misery once and for all, and for free, instantly. Focus now. Take your address position. Look down at your hands. Where does the indentation between the left thumb and forefinger point? You know it’s supposed to point to your right shoulder and it is, right? Wrong. This is the optical illusion that is ruining his life, keeping him in range until nightfall and ruining his marriage.

Arnold Palmer says in his book that you should spend the first year of your golf career working on your grip. It is important to place the grip from the pad of the middle finger to the index finger just above the little finger and then place the heel of the left hand over the grip, so that the club lifts correctly on the backswing; but you knew

Now return to the position of your address. Look at your hands. Look where the indentation between your thumb and forefinger is pointing. She’s pointing at your right shoulder, right? Wrong. This is the optical illusion that is messing up your shoulder alignment and golf swing and causing the cut. Here’s how to instantly and permanently cure it and stop cutting golf balls in the woods and proper sand traps. From your address position with a 7-iron, use your hands to raise your 7-iron until your hands are in front of your diaphragm and the shaft of your golf club is perfectly vertical to the ground, straight up and down and the head of the golf club is pointing to the sky. Now take your right hand off the club. Now, where does the indentation point between the left thumb and the index finger? “OMG! He’s aiming for my chest! My grip is too weak! This opens up my shoulders at address, forcing me to pull the club out and slice it! OMG! I’m healed!”

Now, rotate your left hand a little bit clockwise, to the right, until the slit is pointing at your right shoulder, but no further than that or it will snag. Suddenly, his shoulders are parallel to the line, his club is taking the right path back, coming back to the ball the right way, and his slice is gone. A lifetime of working on his shoulder alignment, his golf swing, and making all sorts of trade-offs, all because when he looks at his hands in direction, an optical illusion makes him see that his cleft is pointing to his right shoulder when in reality the cleft is it’s pointing at your chest. Don’t be mad at your golf pro, he didn’t know either. From his position he is prone to the same optical illusion. Give the boy a break. For millions of years everyone thought the earth was flat. No one knew that the earth was the same shape as a golf ball. Has no sense.
