Part I: David Graham, Golf Legend Stops on the Tee for a Chat

Tour legend David Graham stopped by the Lesson Tee for a chat. This is the first of two podcasts of our chat.

It was just two weeks after the Show that Graham was named to the 2015 class of inductees to the World Golf Hall of Fame. An honor that is long overdue for the winner of 2 Major Championships in the U.S. Open and PGA Championships. In addition, Graham is one of only a handful of players to have won championships on 6 contenients. In fact, at the very end of this podcast, what Graham says just may have been an omen to his finally being recognized for his accompolishments.

In Part I, David talks about his major victories, contributions to golf, why he retired from competitive play and much more.

Such an honor to have David on the Show.

ENJOY!!!

Women Golfers: Golf Legend Carol Mann Chats about a Very Sensitive Women's Swing Topic

Carol Mann, member of the World Golf Hall of Fame and an LPGA Legend joined me on The Lesson Tee Show recently to chat about a topic many women struggle with when it comes to the Golf Swing. Namely; how to deal with the breasts when it comes to the swing.

The topic of Women's Breasts was an issue that I dealt with honestly and frankly during my 30+ years of teaching. When I thought the breasts were hendering a woman golfer make a free swing motion, I would openly and honestly discuss the problem.

Carol Mann is an accompolished teaching professional who teaches out of The Woodlands outside of Dallas Texas. A frank and honest teacher, the input Mann provides is something every single woman golfer should hear.

Men also need to hear this Podcast of just over 7 minutes. Then, perhaps encourage a loved one who has struggled with this problem to listen to Carol Mann's insight and suggestions. It just might be the best thing you ever do to help that person with thier golf swing.

Bob Beach is part of the SMGA's Boston Chapter.

Daren MacKinnon is assistant golf professional at Pine Oaks Golf Course, teaching and fitting professional at the Joe and Leigh's Golf Performance Center and Joe and Leigh's Discount Golf Pro Shop. All facilities are in Easton Massachusetts.
