Title: C-G Proshop-Carl
Post by: kreitz on May 26, 2007, 10:47:42 PM
I just want to say Thank You to Carl! I've been fortunate enough to work with Carl over the last month and I just want to say "What a great coach he is"! He's got my game back on TRACK(PUN INTENDED)in just 2 sessions! 2 months ago, I was having a lot of trouble with over/under and didn't know what to do! I contacted Carl, and he suggested getting together so he could see whether it was my game or my equipment!I was spinning the ball like a top,so I was getting a ton of over/under off of the friction zones! It turned out it was a little of both, so we looked at my grip and he suggested some changes. I plugged 2 Arsenal Reactives, and drilled the new grip(Carl drilled the second one!)What a difference!!! I was coming up the back of the ball and getting more roll,but virtually NO!! over/under on my house shot! It's an 1 1/2 hour drive for me to get to Youngstown, but you can bet, I'll be going back as often as I to continue working on my game!Thanks again, CARL!

I owe many thanks to Carl also. While I have never met him in person, we have talked a bunch of times on the phone. I wish he was only an hour & a half away, but more like an all day roadtrip. Maybe someday.

It was a pleasure to work with Ken and drill a ball for him. He needed a couple of changes in his grip which were pretty simple to make. I helped him....but as a "student" he has to accept the changes and/or tweaks that I suggest and he did so open armed.

After ONE lesson he went from spinning the ball like a top to getting very good roll and consistant ball movement.

I look forward to working with you in the future Ken.

Thanks,
Carl
