The Problem:
We have used the same golf swing training techniques for over 100 years--and
people are still confused and don't know how to produce the same sound
swing technique repetitively so that they can reach their potential. First,
it is difficult to figure out which is the best way to swing the club,
and second, it's "next to impossible" to figure out the best
means to reproduce that sound technique on the golf course if you ever
do figure out what a sound golf swing is. The problem is nebulous and
imprecise directions to swing the golf club. Only by realizing the true
origins of the swing--the fact that the swing originates in our brain
which elicits the contraction of our muscles to pull tendons and bones
and thus move the club--can we move past these ancient instruction techniques
to tackle the problem of producing the best swing technique and reproducing
it at the highest degree of consistency on the golf course to shoot the
lowest scores.
There is no way that anyone can gain mastery of the game of golf by using
thoughts such as “Low and slow," "Take it back on line,"
and "Get it into the slot (at the top)" or the common swing
thoughts that have been used for many years. Every precise science has
it's paradigm with which the entire science is grounded and based upon;
Physics and chemistry are based upon the structure of the atom (electrons
circling a nucleus of protons and neutrons), and biology is based upon
the structure of the cell (a central nucleus which contains the DNA, and
mitochondria and a cell wall etc...). Psychology is not a science because
of it's nebulous and qualitative nature, and the fact that it has no paradigm
to stand upon. Golf is much the same as psychology, because of it's mind
component and the nebulous nature of turning thoughts into motion. We
are still far from melding the concepts of the mind into a science, but
the very jurasprudent can take the most advanced research to produce a
system that will consistently produce controlled movements which are called
forth from the mind.
We already have the best method to swing the club figured out. The problem
is that it is such a long process for people to learn and to understand
this swing method. There is an endless sea of instructional material out
there, and people can pass through a lifetime of trial-and-error testing
without even figuring out the swing method. And even if a person has come
to the conclusion, or resolution, as to the most sound method that produces
the best results, it's a lifetime push-pull process of find and losing
it. To figure out the best means that will produce the highest degree
of consistency, is just as difficult a process as figuring out which is
the best way to swing the club.
sys·tem (noun)
1. A group of interacting, interrelated, or interdependent elements forming
a complex whole.
2. A functionally related group of elements, especially:
3. An organized set of interrelated ideas or principles.
4. A condition of harmonious, orderly interaction.
5. An organized and coordinated method; a procedure. See Synonyms at
method.
meth·od (noun):
1. A means or manner of procedure, especially a regular and systematic
way of accomplishing something.
Synonyms: method, system, routine, manner, mode, fashion, way
These nouns refer to the plans or procedures followed to accomplish
a task or attain a goal. Method implies a detailed, logically ordered
plan. System suggests order, regularity, and coordination of methods.
A routine is a habitual, often tiresome method.
The Solution:
To go beyond the limits of today’s training methods, and swing
concepts, we need to design a swing system, composed of advanced practice
techniques that will ingrane a sound swing into "muscle memory"
and of carefully-devised swing thoughts that will push the limits of the
human mind and allow the highest degree of control, and consistency, in
the production of sound swing mechanics. By devising swing thoughts that
encompass many swing variables, we can gain tremendous control over the
golf swing!
I’ve designed The Redemptive Golf System to allow one to control
a tremendous number of swing variables—simultaneously—which
goes far beyond the degree of control that one can attain with the use
of traditional swing training systems, or the use of individual swing
thoughts
The main objective is to become so familiar with the integral parts
of this system that the entire system becomes a single thought which will
elicit a 2 to 3-second symphony of sound movements. In actuality, it’s
not possible to fire all of these individual thoughts and to make compensations
for all of the individual movements in the short interval of time that
it takes to swing the golf club. However, this system gets around these
physical limitations because it literally programs the brain, ahead of
time, to execute the correct sequence of movements. We are applying the
principles that allow a superconductor computer chip to perform complex
operations in a nanosecond (10-9 s), or hundreds of millions of operations
in a mere second—the complex neural networks of your brain can be
programmed to reproduce a perfect golf swing, in much the same manner
that enables the fastest and most reliable superconductor computer chips
to perform their operations. You can store the perfect swing in your brain,
and then just activate it at will on the golf course! By extensively working
with the parts of this system on the range, in slow motion training, and
by becoming cognizant and practicing these movements during the practice
swing, we can guarantee the execution of the correct movements on the
golf course. We can avert being paralyzed by worrying about all of the
details, and put very little thought into the actual execution of the
swing, because the details have already been programmed into your “muscle
memory.”
The brain stores memories, such as complex movements, by setting up circuits
called cell assemblies, or neural nets. These circuits are the result
of alterations at the neural synapse, which affects the firing rate between
neurons. When individual neurons are activated—for example, during
the course of performing a complex task—the synaptic connections
are strengthened by increasing the number of packets of neural transmitter
that the nerve cells will release when next activated. With many of these
strengthening activations, we get temporary assemblages of cells (a circuit)
with high excitability, which is the basis of short-term memory. These
assemblages of neurons (a neural pathway), if traversed over and over
again like a well-worn footpath, will transform these temporary electrochemical
changes into long-lasting anatomical changes. In essence, a neural pathway
is formed because neural messages tend to flow along paths of least resistance,
which result from the extended use of that particular pathway.
This system ingrains the complex movements of a sound golf swing into
the brain, by strengthening and setting up neural pathways which elicit
the correct sequence of movements. These pathways will be traversed because
they will be the pathways of least resistance. Like a player-piano that
can be programmed to play perfectly any piece of music, you can program
yourself to execute perfectly the golf swing. With our current technology,
this system has been designed to allow a high degree of certainty—and
confidence—before one even swings the golf club! |
