TO: Don Trahan
I'm writing to thank you for all you've done to help my golf game as well as my health. I had played very little golf over the past 7 years due to my work situation. I retired at the end of last year and began taking lessons this year. I took several lessons with no real success. The golf professional tried to get me to turn my back completely to the target on my backswing so I could get the maximum coil as he explained. This twisting caused me so much pain and stiffness that I had to stop playing for almost 3 weeks. I'm 60 years old and have always been in good health but I couldn't handle the extreme twisting that was required to properly execute the swing that they were teaching me.
I was really down about this until I saw you recently on The Golf Channel. Your concept captured my interest. Could it really work? Could I swing, as you were teaching, with less shoulder tu! rn and hopefully less back pain but yet have the same power as the more complex and difficult swing I was being taught. Also, your upright swing was radically different from what I was being taught but yet seemed so much easier to grasp. I couldn't wait to get to the driving range the next morning.
It didn't take me long to start hitting the ball with your method. What was most amazing was that I was hitting most of the balls very solid and very straight (much different from the inconsistency I had experienced with my old swing). I had no pain or tightness in my back that day or the next after hitting balls with your method. Nor have I since. Prior to using your method I had been shooting typically in the low 90's to low 100's. Now I can tell you I'm breaking 90 every time out. My last two rounds have been 83 and 84 ...
Thanks again for saving my back and my game.
Respectfully,

Good morning,
I just want to know how does it feel to be right about the swing? A friend of mine who is a low handicapper, just came back from a 3 day session in Pinehurst this past weekend ... My friend is about 6'2. He is now bending his knees and his weight is on his heels. Can’t hit. I tried to discuss with him the flex in his knees and the width of his stance, but it was like talking to a board.
I had the chance to get out on Sunday on a relatively wide open course but playing into a 2-3 club wind going out, and the wind with me coming back. I haven't played on a course for at least a month, but I Shot an 83 (which could have been lower, but I had few putting errors). I know to you the score is high but for me I mention it because it was so easy.
Anyway, thanks for being right .

Dear E,
Thanks for having smarts and faith and doing the swing. The proof of the pudding is in the tasting. And your tasting is getting better right from the start. And, it will get better and last!!! Playing by the rules of physics/physiology, the way God created the world of golf to be played is the way, and doing so sill not let you down.
Keep up the swing and confidence and you will have better golf game.
The Surge!
