From Capt. Greg Rahe :-
Gordy,
Like Dusty, I also like
using the golfing examples when discussing style with my clients. The styles of
Tiger, Jack, Arnold Palmer, and Lee Trivino are worlds apart from their grip to
their swing plane to their tempo. Some of them can’t perform shots that the
others can and vice-versa. I’m reminded of Tom’s and your advice: we don’t
change a student’s style unless they can’t perform a required task. Good
casters, like good golfers, will change their natural style at times to get the
job at hand done.
The real AHHA comes
when you take 20 pictures of each of the above golfer’s swings from start to
finish and compare them. They look worlds apart until the moment of truth –
impact! Strong moves, with no wasted energy and squared shoulders and club
faces.
I’ve never seen this
done with casters, but I bet we find the same
thing.
