Why You Won't See Jack on The Golf Channel
E-mail
from Jack Kuykendall to Ed Laskody:
One of the golf publications is sponsoring a Teacher-Weekend next year.
They sent out a letter asking teachers if they would be available. I
answered with the below letter. Their response was that they respected
my work but I was too controversial and would be disruptive to the
other teachers. Due to this resistance to change, there is very little
chance that you will ever see me on the Golf Channel or articles
published in the main golf publications. However, the Internet is a
great avenue to publish change.
Email
from Jack Kuykendall to major golf publication:
I just received the letter about the Teacher's weekend. I would like to
express my desire to participate. I believe my experiments and
scientific evidence will help all golfers.
Concepts and Body parts that do not contribute to
clubhead speed:
* Centrifugal force is a fictitious force and has no part in a golf
swing.
* A golf stroke is not a FLAIL.
* The hips produce NO power in a golf swing
* The legs produce NO power in a golf swing
* Body rotation is the number one fault in golf and is the major
contributor to slicing
* Straight left arm reduces clubhead speed and produces major torque in
the back and shoulders
Concepts and Body parts that do contribute to clubhead
speed:
* Arm speed, forearms rotation and right hand extension are the
producers of clubhead speed.
* Sitting on a stool, I personally generate over 110 mph of clubhead
speed and hit the ball over 250 yards air carry. This would be
impressive for people at the clinic.
* How to perform the POWER MOVE from the top: All Tour players make the
move - most amateurs do not.
* Easy drill to teach to amateurs.
* Bent left arm allows for maximum clubhead speed (Jorgensen's "Physics
of Golf") and virtually eliminates torque on the back and shoulders.
I would be glad to do a one day presentation to your staff to
scientifically prove all my claims.
Sincerely,
Jack Kuykendall Golf's Leading Scientific Teacher
