	Myths of Golf 62 – Shaft laid off at the top of the back swing. What does this actually mean? I will explain where the shaft goes in the back swing and why.
	Myths of Golf 61 – Head up. Having taught thousands of golfers of all standards for 59 years it still amazes me that people still say ‘ head up ‘ It is probably the most damaging phrase in golf and I will explain why.
	Myths of Golf 60 – Hit the ball on the upswing to create more roll ( topspin). It is amazing that so many golfers believe this to be true with absolutely no evidence whatsoever. I will explain how damaging this myth really is.
	Myths of Golf 59 – Return the shaft to the address position at impact. The shaft may well return to the address position at impact for the very short shots but not for longer shots. I wil explain why.
	Myths of Golf 58 – Compress the ball into the turf to produce back spin. Slow motion videos of the moment the ball is hit by the club head will show what really happens.
	Myths of Golf 57 – Drop the hands down towards the right hip in the down swing. Dropping the hands down towards the right hip in the down swing is not what great golfers do.
	Myths of Golf 56 – Drawings in golf books. Drawings in golf books can be very damaging as they can represent the ‘feeling’ of the author rather than what is actually happening in ‘their’ swing. I will produce some very convincing evidence.
	Myths of Golf 55 – Feet shoulder width apart. An often repeated myth that is not factual.
	Myths of Golf 54 – Waiter’s tray position. Some golfers are taught to have the palm of their right hand facing to the sky at the top of the back swing as if they were holding a waiter’s tray. I will explain how damaging this myth can be as it is physically impossible in any good golf swing.
	Myths of Golf 53 – Timing. Timing is a word that is used all of the time in golf and I will explain why it is so misunderstood.
	Myths of Golf 52 – Muscles have memories. Muscles do not have memories and I will explain why this myth is so misleading.
	Myths of Golf 51 – Practice makes perfect. Practicing will not make your shots perfect. If it did the 60,000,000 + golfers in the world would only have to practice to become perfect.
	Myths of Golf 50 – Practicing with your feet together will improve your arm and wrist motion. Practicing with your feet together will not improve any part of your swing.
	Myths of Golf 49 – A wide stance will restrict the shoulder turn. A wide stance will not restrict the shoulder turn. In fact a wider stance will make it easier to turn the shoulders and transfer your weight. I will explain why.
	Myths of Golf 48 – A longer shaft makes the ball go further. I will explain why this myth is not true for all but the very longest hitters.
	Myths of Golf 47 – Play the ball back in the stance with a wedge to hit the ball higher. This myth is very easy to dismiss and I will show you why.
	Myths of Golf 46 – Slow your swing down. If your swing is incorrect and you slow it down it will still be incorrect. I will explain.
	Myths of Golf 45 – Stay connected. Your arms are obviously connected to your body but the relationship between your arms and your body will not remain the same throughout the swing. I will explain what actually happens in all good swings.
	Myths of Golf 44 – A draw goes further. A golf ball hit with a draw may well travel farther but it will not travel farther through the air. I will explain why this occurs and why most successful golfers prefer a fade.
	Myths of Golf 43 – Swing with a good tempo. One cannot have a good tempo without good movements in a good sequence but is a good tempo even important? Many brilliant golfers do not think tempo is important as I will explain.
	Myths of Golf 42 – Swing with rhythm. One cannot produce rhythm in music, gymnastics or golf without a correct sequence of notes or movements.
	Myths of Golf 41 – In match play play the course. Should you play the golf course or your opponent in match play? I will explain why I am sure the better strategy is to play your opponent.
	Myths of Golf 40 – Hit your drives on the upswing and your irons on the downswing. I will explain that all shots simply need to be hit forward.
	Myths of Golf 39 – Drive for show and putt for dough. A great bit of ‘rhyming slang’. A few facts will convince most golfers that putting is important but very overrated.
