Artistry

Artistry
One can study all the optics involved in a camera and then become a photographer; another can start shooting and become a photographer. The final quality of the photograph will depend solely on the artist eye of the moment and the resulting photograph.  The study of optics will have insignificant bearing on the final photograph. Similarly all artistic endeavors like music, drawing, singing, acting and golf too will depend on the spontaneous reaction to the moment and not a predetermined action determined elsewhere.
The learning of mechanics and all element of how to hit the ball has little value as every shot in a game of golf is shot unique to the moment, to the position of the ball in relation to the target. This hit to target is a result of observation and then a reaction to surroundings – nothing else is important than being in the moment spontaneously creating a shot that destroy the target .

Shakuntala Devi
Shakuntala Devi was born in Bangalore, India, (Kannada: à²¶à²•ುಂತಲಾ ದೇವಿ, November 4, 1929 – April 21, 2013), popularly known as the "Human Computer", was a child prodigy and mental calculator. Her talents earned her a place in the 1982 edition of The Guinness Book of World Records.
Shakuntala Devi was born in Bangalore, India, to an orthodox Kannada Brahmin family. Her father rebelled against becoming a temple priestand instead joined a circus where he worked as a trapeze artist, lion tamer, tightrope walker and magician. Devi's father discovered her ability to memorize numbers while teaching her a card trick when she was about three years old. Her father left the circus and took her on road shows that displayed her ability at number crunching. She was able to do this without any formal education. By age six she demonstrated her calculation and memorization abilities at the University of Mysore.
Devi travelled the world demonstrating her arithmetic talents, including a tour of Europe in 1950 and a performance in New York in 1976. In 1988 she returned to the US to have her abilities studied by Arthur Jensen, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley. Jensen tested her performance at several tasks, including the calculations of large numbers; Examples of the problems presented to Devi were calculating the cube root of 61,629,875, and the seventh root of 170,859,375. Jensen reported that Devi was able to provide the solution to the aforementioned problems (the answers being 395 and 15 respectively) before Jensen was able to copy them down in his notebook. Jensen published his findings in the academic journal Intelligence in 1990. In addition to her work as a mental calculator, Devi was an astrologer and an author of several books, including cookbooks and fictional novels.

This kind of skills are rare very rare these skills unlike artistic  skills like sports, music, can be taught be taught by another to a very high degree.

Helper say now 3/4 swing

Helper say now 3/4 swing -will this help? if the ball  is over he will say now half swing, will it help, now the ball is the water  ? he will say little more than that ,then will be at the edge of the green. Is it necessary for another to say more, less etc etc Can this be achieved in a driving range  for accurate distance -NO- balls different, surrounding different take off surface different, then is it possible to achieve in a academy -You decide ? 

Take note  visuals of the surroundings give different feels. Open air vast greens with no trees  anywhere near , is the most difficult as judgments are so lonely. Try doing this  in a dessert or on top of tall building seen only the vast sky

Are you ware of the feeling inside You .In Mind and Body

Feeling inside
Weather, winter, summer, elevation temperature humidity,  scenes , objects,  living  non living ,  signboards   ,colors, sounds , smell, tastes , sensation,  day  time ,night time, full moon , no moon ,days  all effect the feeling inside you. Feeling inside you directly effects  both mental and physical performance. When a person is used to a surrounding conditions  any changes  will effect the performance. Developed mind can   maintain some balance  despite the changes in  out  side.  The good feel inside will  result in good  performance ,will give out more than what you have inside. Bad feel will result in bad performance  worse than what you have in side ie sub level to your potential .
Music  , good smell , good  taste,  good scene, regenerative meditation can enhance the good feel of a player.
Select what is  best  for  you , get it ,recreate the states  at your will some what similar to our own bodies that try to maintaining constant temperature without our  effort. So the good feel will come to you as and when it is needed.

Lali.elite.golf.  

Are You interested

when deeply interested  nothing else creep into the mind
recollect past memories,  as kids when you needed the toy, sweets, later when you need your favorite food, even more later when in romance –the thoughts-mind was engrossed .,there was no room for any other thought. Or when you ran fearing a snake or dog.
If the golfer is deeply interest in the shot in had to destroy the target mind will not have room for any other thought than destroying the target with the  tiny ball.
Make the target your urge to destroy, like in the battle where your life is threatened if you failed to get the enemy on target.
There is no other  mental  training needed. Get interested in the shoot. Develop hunger to shoot at target. Golf is target game not a dance at the stance .How you do matters very little fi you hit the target.

May we say skills cannot be given nor taught

May we say skills cannot be given nor taught nor bought nor sold nor passed on but must be acquired by self.

Rudiments must come for the genes- then polished with self-confidence. lali.elite.golf 

One day good game next day bad

One day good game next day bad  game is not due to bodily swing or technical problem that require external assistance but self analysis,self analysis of the mind ,staying cool and confident saying there is nothing wrong with me I CAN DO.  External assistance will lead to more confusion and destruction of confidence the most important element in any endeavour.

Schooling to learn golf

Schooling to learn golf
What comes out are equal almost.
To be a champion of extraordinary one has to be  schooled  differently very differently  to the 10000000 of schools. I e out of the of ways to reach above the crowd. That METHOD   is all almost always  comes form within. Curated by self driven by unending reservoir of drive ,passion, joy  love of the game.
Unwavering desire find its own unique path to the top to match the talent one is born with.
Lali.Elite.Golf
All have inherent talents, some talents to do something not all talent to do all things. Allow them to grow without interference. You have yours, i have mine

Did he school  to get this talent?

Do i have the talent

ASK  do i have needed talent first , find a game that fits the talent.Every one has some talent in some  not all talent in all.

More refined ,,, ask do i have target hitting  ability. like the good old day s hitting at Mango  to pluck. If you have go  for it any target game.
Then ask do i have the interest to be at the top or just social game.

To be at social  game one need not waste lot of time just start hitting balls to target -U will then find ways  you own ways to hit.
I  U want o to reach the top it is  the same but need relentless interest and indulgence and enjoy every moment of it. Noting will  stop you. That’s all U need as with every hit at practice you will find the most comfortable , confident way to hit target in under various conditions.

All are within you it is up to you to find ways to get it out at the right time at the right place.
Sports is not a complicated science like atomic  physics. It  is just talent and feel. If you have go for it

need  to read more go.. lali.elite .golf for controversial  advice most pros  will  not like. But we the authors of this site do not say pros are not helpful. They are indeed useful provided one knows exactly what is need out  of them . not just let --please  help me to be a champion. Go ask be specific then test for results by the feel and the hit on target.

All  will  depend on the  interest the intensity of self and  inborn talent

The ball is there to be hit

The ball is  there to be hit and he hit with great timing and panache. and joy  Yes ball is there to hit to target and not to think about how to hit. Joy is in the hitting more when getting the target.

Machine assisted golf practice

Machine assisted golf practice
Good for entertainment not good for improvement. Yes ok during winter when the outside is frozen.
Why is not good? well  the urge to read the outcome of the shot is greater that the natural urged to ingrain the feel o the shot. As golf revolve around shots with feel. This important aspect  of the skill will be reduced   hitting balls then wanting to read how was the hit rather than asking how as the feel. A good player will know a good shot, bad shot, the direction of the ball and even distance of the ball without even having to look at the ball landing.-as every shot played monitored by any kind of machine will drive the payer to read.
It is of different to racing car  driver looking at  purposeless speedo meter when the speed has  to be governed only by the feel  of the movement of the car. Top drivers need  not look at the meter costing them valuable time.
Play golf as close as the real situation.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction." eg learning Golf.

"Imagination is more important than knowledge." Target ,path feel not  the  way on back swing head, swing  patch etc

Myth of Golf Swing


Golf swing is a natural act that come about -as a result of conscious intention to hit  a target. This Act is by instinct –feel-often by inborn talent of target hitting-NOT A PREDETERMINED SUPPOSEDLY CORRECT BODY MOVEMENT PRACTICE ELSE WHERE  like in the nets, in an academy or Home. Yes one can practice any where- that is ONLY the feel -not the conscious way to move the body

Aerial route

Aerial route 



http://www.damaru.info/lalielite-golfphilosophy.html
terrain matter a very little to a professional golfer


Golfers take Aerial routes, nothing in between matters. Take the right club and smash the ball along the right directions. That’s the only task of a golfer.
Mastering distances are the key to success in golf. Terrain differs from place to place. At the same place, the golf ball behaves differently from moment to moment. Hence it is the talent of the golfer to know the feel of the terrain when setting foot on the course, on the green and on the fairways. It is impossible to be a good golfer searching for all possible terrains to practice.

Master the distances on just one terrain; then go places. Try developing the feel of the terrains as you step on them.

If one is going allover to practice in search of different terrain s . He will then be an amture all his life.

Tiger did not change his swing There is no need for it

Golf legend Gary Player believes Tiger Woods, before he changed his swing, was on target to smash Jack Nicklaus's record of 18 major championship victories.






"There's never been a man with the talent Tiger Woods has," Player said during a recent ESPN interview.
"When he won the (2000) U.S. Open by 15 shots, he was on his way to destroying all records. He would have won close to 30 majors the way he was going - and then he changes his swing."
"Obviously one is always ambitious and wanting to get better and better and you've got to admire a man for doing that.
"But then he has many coaches (and) this coach is teaching him that, this coach is teaching him this.
"He gets swinging different ways, gets a bit confused, loses a bit of confidence and it takes time to restore it."
But Woods has always insisted he had one good reason to change his swing despite his success.
"You can always become better," he told the television program '60 Minutes' in 2006.
Woods turned professional in 1996 and was coached by Butch Harmon until 2002, before switching to Hank Haney.
He was successful under both coaches - accruing 14 major titles between the 1997 Masters and the 2008 U.S. Open.
But he has not won a major in more than five years and at the age of 37 remains stranded four Grand Slam titles short of matching Nicklaus.
Woods, who is now coached by Sean Foley after splitting with Haney in 2010, has not lost the ability to win regular tournaments.
He has regained his world number one ranking by piling up victories in non-major tournaments, but it is no secret he covets majors and a place in history more than anything else in golf.
"He wins five tournaments this year after all the difficulties and adversities he went through," continued Player, one of only five men to win all four Grand Slam titles - the Masters, U.S. Open, British Open and U.S. PGA Championship.
"I'm a big admirer of that. To win five tournaments is absolutely wonderful but he would give all five away, I'm sure if you asked him, to win one major because what he's got to do now is beat Nicklaus's 18 majors and that's a difficult task but if anyone can do it it's Tiger Woods."
Woods' 2000 U.S. Open victory was only his third major title, but it was the start of an astonishing run of six major wins in nine starts.
Rarely, if ever, has a performance more impressed his fellow competitors. Woods increased his lead after every round at Pebble Beach, despite a triple bogey during the third round.
Four-time major champion Ernie Els, who tied for second, said at the time: "It seems like we're not playing in the same ballpark right now.
"When he's on, you don't have much of a chance. ... I guess if I played out of my mind, I probably still would have lost by five, six, seven."

HOW CAN CADDY WIN-

Adam Scott may have captured one of the biggest wins of his career on Sunday afternoon, but when he wakes up on Monday morning, he's going to find he wasn't even the biggest story at Firestone.
Following a flawless performance from the 31-year-old Aussie, his caddie, Steve Williams, stole the spotlight with an interview that showed just how much anger and animosity he still holds against former boss Tiger Woods.
After Scott had sunk the winning putt and walked off the 18th green, CBS's David Feherty was able to chat with Williams, who proceeded to drop a bombshell on the golf world by proclaiming his win with Scott was the "best win I've ever had."
"I've been caddying for 33 years and that's the best week of my life ... and I'm not joking," Williams said. "... There were a lot of expectations today. I'd be lying if I didn't say I was a little nervous. Obviously, Adam was leading the tournament and there was a lot being said this week, so it was great to back it up. ... But honestly that's the best week of my life; I've caddied for 33 years, 145 wins now, and that's the best win I've ever had."
You'd have to be blind to not see the underlying anger in his comments. After sticking with Woods during the roughest stretch of his life, he was fired at AT&T National, and promptly told a television crew he'd "wasted two years of his life."
The comments obviously reeks of sour grapes, but it's incredible to see Williams still holding a serious grudge against Woods. Not only did he take the spotlight away from his own player this week, but he proclaimed that a World Golf Championship was greater than 13 major championships with one of the best players in the history of the game.
It's hard to defend Tiger Woods these days, but Williams' comments were beyond classless. I understand the need to vent and put Tiger in his place, but if there was ever a time to be the bigger man and move on, this was the moment.
Caddies never get national airtime, so when Williams was granted a rare opportunity to speak, he sounded like a jilted lover. Tiger Woods may have a gigantic ego, but his former caddie does as well.
"Wow, that's all you can say," said CBS's Jim Nantz. "That will be talked about for weeks to come. You call that the biggest win of your career after 13 major championships with Tiger Woods and call this the greatest week of your life. ... It's a pretty interesting comment."
Interesting, indeed. Williams got just what he wanted following his split from Woods; he's on top and the biggest story in golf. It's just a shame it came at the expense of his own player.
 
HOW CAN CADDY WIN-

He is simply riding on Tigers Back

Truthful Bubba Watson

 Molly Watson walked down the side of 10th fairway in the second playoff hole of the Masters, saw the spot where her son, Bubba, had put his tee shot – deep in the woods without a clear path to the green – and knew immediately he’d find a way to swing for the pin.
Bubba Watson hugs his mother, Molly, after winning the sudden death playoff.
“That’s his game,” she said.
“Bubba Golf” is what Bubba Watson calls it, and it’s some combination of aggressiveness and innocence. 

The guy boasts of never taking a lesson. He has no coach. He employs no sports psychologists. He does things he knows he shouldn’t, like hitting driver when control is of the essence, or imagining some weaving, looping wedge shot out of the woods and into history.
all top pros did things  out the box and all came form within. A results of genes, talent,dedication, total dedication with bush fire  igniting focus.
throw out the --care for  hand head etc movements -just whack the ball to target.Just like the way kids throw stones  to pluck fruits.
Damaru  golf tech analyst

monetizing the art of gifted natural skills

Civilization has given rise to all kinds of teaching, coaching, guiding and more, in almost all aspects of life. Often in return for money. Today these teachings encroach on the natural skills inherently present in almost all human beings. Skills such as hitting a stone to the enemy in self-defense, or plucking a fruit to satisfy one's hunger. Or riding a bicycle, or walking, or running on two legs.
But now they are in search of acquiring with the intention of developing further. Is hit possible  ???? Think
Is it necessary to teach Horse how to gallop

Can walking be improved by another person - the style of walking, the mechanism etc? It may be possible to change for a few hours, or a few days, but the original style will return. It will never be possible to change the style of your smile for a longer period. Maybe a few hours like those done by actors. And when they do, it's rarely nice to look at. A golf swing, if sliced into every changing movement, there will be countless states. And the most important states are not seen to the naked eye nor can they be recorded by the most sophisticated  equipment. For instance the movements of the mind, i.e, the signals of the mind. It is these signals that ultimately govern the body movements. Hence observing body movements and trying to rectify the swing is no different to talking to the deaf. On bodily movements, the wrist is probably the most important as it is the wrist that ultimately decides the distance and direction. Yet, the  movements of the wrist and the inner grips are not possible to see nor record for replay. Hence in all body movement study to improve golf hit to target is..............
It is certainly a must to teach the alphabet, mathematics, sciences, atomic science, rocket science and on so on, as these are not inherent natural skills but rather these are man-made knowledge. However, can we extend these teaching methods to artistic skills such as music, art and sports? The answer is a clear NO. Why? Skills which are needed to perform instantly and spontaneously and that fit the moment are all within oneself; it is somewhere inside. They (these gifted sportsmen, in this case golfers) are born with these skills which are polished and honed further by constructive practice. They are, shall we say, gifted. Some horses run fast and some do not. The fast running horses could be trained to be at their peak for an event by way of food, exercise and likes – A horse cannot be taught, trained on how to gallop.
Is it possible for another to help better these natural skills? The answer is YES! How can another help? By way of motivation, guiding the drills, exercises, food and way of life for the sportsmen to be at their peak performance, ready to deliver just in time for the event, not after, not before but just in time. The peak almost always has a short life span. Maybe for days or weeks certainly for years. 
Is it  necessary  train monkeys to jump
This act of guiding to be in peak form for the event is an art too, done by trial and error that keeps changing with time, place, etc. i.e, there is NO proven holy-grail method of such guidance for successful performance. Keep trying relentlessly is the answer. Not forgetting that there is a limit to the number of muscle and bone movements possible; the more you use, shorter the life span. So ensure you do your practice while retaining your inner urge to practice daily with the muscles ever ready to get into action.
Going for practice should be driven by an inner desire, as a MUST-DO routine attitude. When you feel exhausted even a little, it is time to stop, rest, recover and come back. Do not do repeated practice over and over again aimlessly. That’s a huge cost in terms of lifespan utilization. All muscles, bones and ligament have a limited life span. They do not have unlimited elastic power. Resting will get them back to a certain extent, but not fully, till rested in full ,,,,fed  all nutrient needed
For instance hitting 1000s of balls standing in one place is a destructive act as this will accelerate wear-and-tear of the back bone, ligaments and more injury to all moving joints. Ensure every hit has a good reason, not just hit to say “I hit 1000 balls today or even 100” That’s stupid.

Intimidating factor in sports

Tigers Intimidating acts,Look
In boxing intimidating factor is evident.First the bouncy words before the real bounces  in the ring.Mohammed Ali was famous for this so was  Mike. They qll talk aloud before the real fight.Yes  these intimidating behavior can contribute to better performance as it lets out some pressure within, and  at time such act may even effect the performance of competing players. Tiger  woods intimidating acts are  not by words but by his sheer  aloof  ,focused manners.And the past mighty [performances and by the attraction of the public.
Just like the in the jungle where tigers and lions, lonely ,quite, focused pound on their prays.

intimidating before the deadly act

All great achievers in sports had this intimidating acts.Mostly unintentional acts that come out due to sheer joy of wanting to perform So before the real act they start their acts in other ways like shouting, dancing, making gestures like --  Bolt while Mark Lewis was more gentle in his ways
i am a legend mark is not

Michel Jordan was loud all over
Michel Jordans Intimidating act

Hi above human acts- can any one teach him ??to throw to jump ?

In born talent plus wild passion make them do inhuman acts 

Mike threaten , shout,and even bit


they are not acting like the professional actors but sheer natural acts of aggressive behavior to win.

STOP THE MONKEY MIND

Have you observed monkeys,Dogs,Fish  they move all the time.A result of flickering mind as they get attracted to all around happening ,smell, tastes, feels,sound,---- Can they perform ????? to win? Yes when it comes to food,territory and mating.Then natural focusing  come to play.Man has more interests  ....................................not all but special men-As a golfer you are indeed a special man one in a million

it is not the body that must be trained to keep still -But the MIND

Meditation is the ability to keep  the mind relatively still or in deep focus on one subject. Hence one does not need special places, nor special time but gear the mind TO  the present moment.  Easiest way to test how one can stay focused is—to be aware of ones breathing pattern. Rhythm of inhale and exhale. Feeling the air IN-OUT  .
Try -is it? one min or five or even more. ? At the start  you thoughts will go out of track ie wild for sure. all you need to do is to be aware of this out side tracking or wild thoughts and get back to being aware of breathing. Keep repeating  May go OUT  Then You bring IN  consciously. Ie other words it is said to be – concentrated when IN, Diffused when OUT  the MIND
This is the best pure method If one can do then staying focused in what you love to do is a breeze.
If this is method of breathing in and out – staying focused with ON-OUT is boring , then try with a subject that interest you. Stay focused only in the subject. This is not stilling the mind but running along one direction. That too is  good as most action to perform one must stay focused in the job in hand not allow the mind  to go  wild- say monkey mind. Look at  a Monkey he will look here and there all the time, will move here and there all the time  so are the dogs. All most all animals have mind that are flickering as they are only bothered about eating, mating and dying.
Man is different he has tasks to perform either by interest or as way to live. All tasks that are done due to interest will have natural focus. Task that are done as no choice but must do are almost always done half hearted. So if you interest in golf is social then you will always be a mediocre player whatever the equipment or the trainers you have. On the other hand if the game is very interesting then you will reach best level you can with or without any extra help as some how  you will settle in th what is good for you in all aspects of the game.
To further improve juts like having physical exercise get involved  in meditation. On the other hand you interest so burning to play , to hit targets you even may not need any special mind training. It is like running for lie you will get the best ever speed you are blessed with or  if you are madly in love you will not need meditation but your mind will  be on love day in day even on dreams.
IT IS THE RELENTLESS DESIRE------
