Mostly it will be strategical, but not all. There will be other ways to shave strokes that won't involve strategy or swing methods at all. You'll just have to wait and find out what those are. This is going to be a book full of knowledge. Knowledge will be the main key to shaving strokes here.

I would like to write a swing tips book eventually, but I'd rather start with this, because in all honesty, this is the stuff golfers can benefit the most from because it requires no big changes. Just better use of the 6 inches between your ears.

My goal is to create something that everyone can benefit from, so if you don't fit into one category of the book, you'll learn something from the other parts. The thing that is going to set it apart from other books out there will be the pictures and video support I am going to provide along with it. For the harder concepts to understand, I'll create a short video for the reader.

There will be things that will benefit the weekender and things that will benefit single digit handicappers. I'm very excited about it. I better stop typing before I go too far!

Got a few good pics for this on Sunday. As soon as I can get my bud to help me, I have a lot more planned.

cbwheeler, if you're considering taking up this advice I would like to offer my services free of charge to you. I am not an English teacher yet, but I am an English major and plan to teach English when I finish school.

I have edited one book already, by a Chinese man whose English was so poor that I felt more like a translator than an editor.

Like I said, it would be free of charge. All I would ask in return is that you give me a good reference if I get the opportunity to edit other books in the future.

Let me know.

Thanks, I'll definitely keep that in mind!

Got a lot of good info going with this guys. Been working hard on it

You must be playing your buns off Cody, where the heck you been hiding. There was a posting here the other day looking for a golf instructor, and I thought of you, but didnt know how to get ahold of you... "Golfers Needed ... Want Your Help"

Ha sorry man. I've got a new job that I've been learning so I haven't been able to post as much

I should be able to post now more though, because things have calmed down a little bit. Feel free to PM me anytime. I get notifications when I have a message in my email.

Hey guys. I've kinda started rethinking how I am going to do this book. I've got all of the pages planned out and even halfway written, but still haven't been able to take many pictures.

I've been sooo busy with other things that this has sort of taken a side seat. I just wanted to hop on here and let you all know that although this may be delayed til the spring, I am going to do it, and everyone here will have first dibs.

I'll set up a mailing list when the time draws closer.

As of now, I'm focusing on getting my website up and running so I can have a place to promote it, as well as establish a bit more credibility in the meantime.

Right now, I'll leave you with my new slogan.

CW Golf Instruction
Making a Complicated Game ... Simple

I'll try to hop on here a few minutes a day and answer questions for folks. I know a lot of you are going nuts over the winter. I know I am too. Take good care everyone.

any update on this?

cbwheeler · 03-27-2008, 05:05 PM

Hi Matt,

Yep it's coming along slowly. It's about 30 pages without pictures right now. I expect over 100 with full color pictures once everything is finished. I can't work on it every day b/c I have so many other things going on right now, including the start of golf season and students knocking down my door

I will be opening up a mailing list here in the next few weeks for input. Anyone on the list will get the launch price, which will probably be about half off. I will probably pick a few random people to give the book to for free testimonials purposes.

No worries. It will get finished, but it may be a while. I wish I could work on it all day every day, but that is just not a possibility. Thanks for asking Matt

I'm not setting a release date yet because the writing process is taking A LOT longer than I figured it would. I'm getting a couple of colleagues of mine to contribute through interviews I will be doing.

This is something I want to get done, but I don't want to rush it.
