National Championship for TGM
Jim Renner of Plainville, MA won the NAIA National Golf Championship in Prairie Highlands Golf Course in Olathe, Kansas. Renner shot round of 75-67-68-71 281 (-7) to win by a shot. The win was Renners sixth collegiate championship since January.

Jim works for me in the Pro Shop where we work the "Three Imperatives".
He is exceptional at tracing his plane line.

Keep an eye for him. He is also going to the sectional qualifying next week for the U.S. Open in New Jersey.

Jim is a visual learner. He likes to see what he is doing on video. He is not one for alot of detail (He would never read chapter 2). He does, however, understand the Three Imperatives. He absorbs and applies by putting a feel and a mental picture together.

We often work on tracing the plane line with the right forearm and number three pressure point. When he feels on-plane lag it is a thing a beauty. Like Clampett in his prime, his ball sounds different.

Is he any relation to the Renner (Jack?) who lost to the eagle on the last hole by Isao Aoki in the Hawaiian Open in the early 80's? I believe there were a number of very solid golfers in that family but I think they were from California...... Congratulations in any case to pupil and mentor.... great job.

No relation to Jack Renner.

BTW, I always believe that the student deserves all the credit. He or she has the responsibility for the execution of the shot at hand. I would, however, throw some credit in Mr. Kelley's direction.
