That's why you need assistants to run schools

Napping, texting, surfing the Internet, all of the above. We'll see Mac's book before Geoff's.

The edits will always be penultimate.

I'll bet his book would be interesting if it ever saw the light of day. I'll guess with no shortage of anecdotes

[TheBigGun]

Any news on the book?

I had a quick look back through the thread but can't really work out what the official word is!

who's slicefixer?

[/quote]

Some say he's Tigers next coach.

Some say he can fix any swing fault using telepathy alone.

Some say once this book is released that handicaps will be a thing of the past, and only sub par rounds will be carded.

I think it might be appropriate if this book is not written by the man himself, but penned by his disciples....

I would like to read it though.

ISIS will open a chain of BBQ restaurants before this book is released.

[Conrad1953]

Interesting that he is mocked and treated like a has been
around here.

Is he a has been or is it that he quit posting here years ago?

Is it him always promising the book is around the corner?
Or someone else?

I don't know him, never met him......but I read his posts years
ago, the 9-3 thread; the complied ET.

Seemed like a gentleman and well respected for his knowledge.

So when exactly did he fall out of favor? I don't hang out
here much. Just curious about the fall of "slicefixer".

Glad to hear that Kev. Maybe I got the wrong impression
reading some of the posts in this forum and this thread.

Back at ya Kev! Ya I know it's a rough neighborhood. It has
that reputation....but you've always been a good guy. I've
read many of your posts over the years and glad you were
the first to respond!

[color="#800080"]​ It is easy to take shots at somebody when they are nots around anymore. Especially on the internet... Anybody who follows the one instructor who gots personal in the topic will jump in on him as well. In a sense it is likes high school with the cliques. I do nots know any of them , but you woulds think instructors would act with class ands leave the nonsense to the trouble makers on here.[/color]

[pinhigh27]

its all in good fun, 95 % of the people joking around would buy the book if it ever came out

You are outta your element here. Lots of the people "taking shots" have been longtime students of his. He's a great golf teacher and a great guy, but he's not perfect and if everyone knew some of the stories of what is being complained about, trust me, you wouldnt be saying what you are saying. This is always an awkward situation cuz if the facts are told, it sounds super harsh and everyone either doesn't believe it or thinks people have a vendetta against Geoff. If the facts stay hidden, people think there is nothing really going on and that some just have a vendetta against Geoff. No real way to win or convince everyone, but before you post things like you just did remember sometimes there really is something there and it's not just a bunch of cliquy high school kids.

Thats all I got for now, I'm about to fall asleep, hopefully one of you other guys can be like my assistant and do the rest of the work explaining this (but give me all the credit obviously).

[goobers80]

[color=#800080]I know a friend of his that is brutally honest abouts what his short-comings are ands his strengths. I asked him abouts this topic ands he explained the guy is nowhere near perfect , but neither are the other instructors on here that are idolized. I know stories of bad experiences with Iteach ands Monte ands this Geoff guy. I rarely speak withouts some knowledge of the topic or personal experience.[/color]

[color=#800080]I do know what he is like and i am told he is nots for everybody. If you thinks that some of the guys on here do nots act like high school cliques over certain instructors being the best ... okay. However , a admired instructor on here can be condescending ands come across like a jerk in topics. Nobody is perfect.[/color]

I do not think that there is an overarching "best teacher." Everyone has strengths and weaknesses, the trick is to find which teacher's strengths match up with your weaknesses so you can improve the most. Personally I find that a teacher that is brutally honest and a smart-a** works well for me as I respect those qualities and despise "yes-men sale-sy" instructors.

Geoff seems like a good guy who's popularity blew up and instead of capitalizing and turning it into a massive business he has kept it more like a sole proprietorship. You have to respect that but it takes time away from connecting with the students who are not geographically close. It seems like many of the detractors in this thread are disciples of SF and their issues are not due to cliques but are due to disappointment.
