Question:
– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Actually, you ought to swing perfectly within only 10 minutes. I am constantly baffled by the assertion/assumption that "swing" is the entirety of golf! What about aim? Distance control? Self-management? The short game – chipping, pitching, and putting/distance and direction cointrol? Reading greens. What about sand play? What about course management? What about improving your ball striking? What about catching a fault, and self diagnosis when a virus shows its ugly head? What about "precisifying" a spray pattern by a 50% increase in accuracy? What about increasing your FIR, GIR, and putting stats? What about the Rotella subject of self control and self management?
Perhaps if your book was called "Perfect Impact, But Not Aim or Distance Control, and Only on Full Swings But Not Chips or Pitches or Putts, and Even If You Get it Right It’s Only About 20% of the Game" – yes, perhaps *then* we would have understood.

Has it occurred to you, George, that if I were to take piano lessons, I wouldn’t necessarily assume that all piano teachers are created equally? Some might have inferior communications skills, yet they still hang out a shingle. Others might have something less than "master" knowledge, but because they connect with me, they could get me to a level of functional proficiency. I know that if I were a gifted musician (which I’m not), I might hit a ceiling with with one instructor and need to move on to another if I wanted to "get to the next level." Such is the nature of the teacher-student dynamic. But let’s get something straight: You are no Butch Harmon. You are no David Leadbetter. You are no Jim Flick. You are no Rick Smith. You are no Gary Smith. You are no Dean Reinmuth. And you are no Jimmy Day (my coach). Golf instruction is no different than shopping for any other professional service. Buyer beware. That’s understood. The same is true when shopping for a doctor or a dentist, especially nowadays in the age of PPO’s. Not all schoolteachers are great teachers. Some are. Not all lawyers are great litigators. Some are, some aren’t. Not all cops are good cops. Some are bad cops. Not all carpenters are great carpenters. Some are. Such is the nature of life on earth with human beings. What I find objectionable (and always have) is your self-puffery, as if to claim you’re the only one capable of teaching. You know that’s a lie. Furthermore, just because you hold an academy doesn’t necessarily make you superior to someone who doesn’t. It just means you put on an academy. Nothing more. I could put on an academy. All it would prove is that I put on an academy. Are there bad teachers out there? Of course there are. But you make it sound like THAT’S ALL THERE IS OUT THERE, which is just false, and you know it. The reason why someone in your position would hear so many negatives about teachers is that the only people who would attend an academy are people who’ve failed to find an adequate teaching in their home town, either because they haven’t looked very hard or because they’re lazy. There’s excellent instruction in any major city, and probably superior instruction in most mid-sized towns. You never hear from the MILLIONS of golfers who have teachers with whom they’re perfectly satisfied because they never attend your academy. There are a helluva lot of fine single-digit handicap and even scratch players around the world who’ve never attended the George Hibbard School of Golf and Instructor Berating. In fact, dare I say it? Are there ANY professionals or even mini-tour players who can point to George Hibbard as the one who set them straight? If there are, we haven’t heard from them. In fact, your only claim to fame is that you’ve been able to take a lot of 100 shooters and teach them to break 90. Now I don’t mean to diminish the significance of that feat. Indeed, to those players, it’s a thrilling accomplishment to cross that next threshold of accomplishment. And my hat’s off to you and to them for getting there. But let’s face it — players who can’t break 100 don’t need "expert teaching" to get them to a level of proficiency where they can break 90. Anyone with a modicum of coordination and a basic understanding of swing fundamentals should be able to shoot in the 80s, at least with some degree of regularity, assuming they can chip and putt. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: you have a different way of framing golf swing fundamentals that may prove helpful to certain people. I tried it, and had…well…to be kind, we’ll call it "mixed success." In the end, the fact that my game has started to return to its old (good) form in recent weeks is a result of ignoring all the gobbledy-gook I’ve picked up from you and other guru-wannabes in the past two years and returned to the basics I learned from my instructor from a few years ago. I’ve recently re-read his book, and my game has suddenly returned. It’s no coincidence that three of my last four rounds have been in the 70s, including a 78 on a very demanding course that included a quadruple-bogey (two brain farts on that hole). Could have been a stellar round. Do I mean to imply by all this that your methods have no value? Absolutely not. Only that they’re not for me, and that I take exception, as I always have, with your preposterous claim (or implication) of being the only human alive who’s capable of teaching the golf swing. I know better. And so does just about every other good player on the planet. You do a masterful job of hyping yourself. God knows. But like most intelligent people intuitively realize, if you have to tell people you’re good over and over, then how good can you really be? Whenever I hear someone incessantly remind me of how good they are at something, it’s usually a red flag. — Randy Troll intolerant. I took the RSG 2002 Pledge.

Mike, It’s been a whole lot more than 5 minutes for me, more like 15 months since i took lessons from GH and i’m still not playing par golf yet!! Not to take anything away from George, because i think he is a good guy and he tries hard but this "Five minutes" stuff and "Now Anyone can play par golf" stuff is a lot of crap. i disagree with the premise that anyone can play par golf. Some of us just don’t have the raw talent or ability no matter what we do. That does not mean we enjoy the game any less, but par is not a realistic goal for the overwhelming majority of us, even though it is something certainly worth striving for. eric

Tell us a few things specifically that Mr. Hibbard taught you, and, how did it translate to better scoring? — ChiliDipper -gt
Specific things that will lead to lower scoring for me- 1) Swing with exhuberant abandon, freely with no stress or tension, absolutley relaxed. 2) I have a tendency to get my right hand too far under my shoulder at the top of the backswing…it gets me in a binded, powerless position….Solution: Reprogram the subconscious with drills that will remedy the problem. Axe Drill….Lay the club between my right shoulder and neck, raise your hands above your head, turn to the right and turn to the left. The drill gets me in the right position at the top and through. 3) Tendency to Dipsy-doodle or sway Drill: Baseball Swing. 4)Calibrate pitching, chipping and putting. He showed how to develop a stroke that will repeat itself over and over again. It takes all the stress out of your short game. There is a process of practicing it until you get it *perfect*. Amzingly, if I did the drills twice, as in a practice swing, before making a full swing, I was much more consistent. I achieved acceptable results 75-80% instead of 50% of the time. I am also very confident that I can now correct toe, heel, fat or topped shots. I was "lost" prior to studying Perfect Impact.

I attended the Perfect Impact Golf Academy in Palm Coast, FL on May 6th-9th. It was a very enlightening experience. We worked thoroughly on all facets of the game. I liked the fact that George Hibbard was there full-time to teach, there were no assistant instructors.

I don’t get it, he went to a 4 day school to learn "5 Minutes To A Perfect Golf Swing" (10 if you’re a slow learner)? David Laville, G.S.E.M. The Golfing Machine Authorized Instructor Contributor Of Spam Free Golf Advice
