The one and only Ralph Mosconi?!
I'd rather lessons from Carl Strickland, Sam Van Boening, or Allison Fletcher.

I hear Ricky Varner is a good coach
My wife and I were at the Rays vs Yankees game at Tropicana Field. We were in left field near my company’s logo. Totally coincidental. Aaron Judge was up, and I told my wife that he was going to hit one right into our seats. Instead, he knocked one over our heads by 15 or so rows behind us.
My wife was excited that I called it. At that moment, Judge and I had a mental bond, and the replays clearly showed me on TV.
Freddie <~~~ hope this helps, but I can’t see how
C’mon… you and the other guy were just spontaneously dabbing together, right?

Right on beat!!! And we might use that in a dance routine, so we “collaborated with a couple of multi billion dollar companies.”
I remember watching that because I remember saying something to my wife like, "I think that was that guy that wrote the article about the tips." The tip part quickly caught her attention but I clarified and we had a good laugh.
Pool personalities never sneak past me.

How long have you and Tommy known each other?
The guy who owns the pool room I frequent is Aaron Judge’s batting coach.

ICONS UNEARTHED is soon to release a season of INSIDE JAMES BOND. They filmed a 4-hour interview at our home plus our Bond props and books, focused on Ian Fleming and "films that changed James Bond". I've arranged other interviews with legends of Bond for ICONS, so watch this space. ICONS shared the best in-depth questions I've ever heard from a documentary crew!

As more than acquaintances, as friends? 15-ish years? 20? I feel like my kids were pre-teens when he first stayed at our Florida home.
First saw TK play live in West Palm Beach in a tournament back when he was having a very hot hand. I watched him hit perhaps the best shot I've ever seen in a tournament, four rails for an ovation after studying the table about two minutes. Everyone was in awe of him before the tournament and during the competition.
Don't be such a lazy troll, dude. Actually read back a couple of posts and you'll "get it".
I've given the conditions under which I'll tell you the price. You just don't want to play.
How cool is that! Neat story.
Ricky called me, then lost my number, so I warned him, "Ricky . . . don't lose that number . . . you don't wanna call nobody else."

That's me, very odd, very interesting. Thank you.
We've added still more exciting content to the clinic. Write if you can join us!
You already had way too much material that couldn't possibly be conveyed to even one person in the allotted time of less than 5 1/2 hours.
Now you want to add more. Okay, put an updated itinerary on the new SFF sub forum. Add a price. You'll get more responses.
No, I've given similar clinics before in less time.

While a one day catch all clinic is a great overview, I absolutely hate them from a learning perspective. Not knocking this one in particular, but all one day marathon sessions that cover a lot. Golf clinics are absolutely trash. Ye u save $ compared to getting those lessons individually, by my contention has always been that if you spend 3-4x the money for individual lessons spread out over time with practice/application in between, you will get 10-20x more out of the same content just because of the timing and chunking of it.
But I don't doubt they can cover everything on the itinerary and a bit more in a clinic day. I just don't think it'll be as useful to students as they might think. Goes back to Harvey Pennick's (legendary golf coach) writings on giving lessons. He thought he'd created the greatest lesson of all time that connected all the dots. He delivered it and realized it might have been the absolute worst lesson he'd ever given. Too much at once.
