The ultimate judge of your swing is the flight of the ball.
This is a game of misses. The guy who misses the best is going to win.
Hit the ball up to the hole... You meet a better class of people up there.
Reverse every natural instinct and do the opposite of what you are inclined to do, and you will probably come very close to having a perfect golf swing.
Jesus Christ can't hit a golf ball straight. It's virtually impossible - at best it's an accident.
When you see an opportunity, you practice and work, at least from sunup to sundown.
