Review:

"Carl's clear and accurate principles have had a profound impact on my game and on my teaching. I off instruction to players of all abilities. From the beginner all the way to Fred Couples, each is attempting a better execution and understanding of the golf swing. Because of Carl, I am able to execute and understand the swing to a a much greater degree. I want to thank him for helping me become an infinitely better teacher." Paul Marchand, Fred Couple's coach and PGA Professional, Houston Country Club
