Yoda doesn't need my help...

Yoda doesn't need my help, but I'd be willing to take that challenge. In fact, I did it last week. I had a new student that was THE worst chipper of the ball I'd EVER seen. He had a flat left wrist to follow-through when he left. I regret that I took no 'before' footage; I could have sent it to Ripley's. The motion he made was worse than devastating. After I helped him, I begged him to repeat how he did it when we started the day, so I could capture it on tape. Sadly, for me, he couldn't. He was fantastic when he left and was just as suprised as I was to see such a transformation. I've seen people get much better in a lesson, but this was one for Candid Camera. I thought someone was hiding in the bushes, waiting to jump out with a camera. I thought Yoda had surely set me up. When you ask a student to hit a 5 foot chip and the club finishes above his head, I'd challenge anyone to keep from belly laughing.
Long story short...it can be done.
