Poor parenting responsible for high handicapThere's a raft of evidence to show that children have a natural golf swing. It is evident at birth, but medical science has kept this fact secret. Mankind was born to play golf. Pregnant women are mislead into believing that they are feeling their fetuses kicking. What they feel is in fact the motion of the follow through. If you notice carefully a baby's first grip is that of the golfer. Golf is our natural birthright. But our society curbs the natural inclination to tee off. Every single book on child development has been censored. Not one of them clearly gives us a step-by-step fairway to become a responsible citizen golfer. Take putting for example. How many pediatric books even mention the putting stage? None. In a more enlightened future we will encourage frequent putting. No one should be ashamed of putting alone because practice, while not making perfect, certainly improves performance. But do we encourage it? No. Poor parenting, ignorant parenting, is responsible for some of the high handicaps we see on golf courses around the world. Many people have repressed their inner golfer to the extent that they are not even aware of the game. Coming soon: The strage tale of how an ordinary decent and innocent young fellow fell beneath the dreadful and dibilitating spell of golf. Beware, this story contains a lost village, an extremely hazardous course that only the few return from, and the lovely Marion Crumpetsome. |
