Nothing natural about Moe Norman's 'natural golf,' reader says

About two years ago I took up natural golf. Yep! Got the videos, got the clubs, got the one-day golf school.

Moe Norman may be the guru of "natural golf" but he didn't find a disciple in reader Dennis Goodling.

Now I'm happy to say that after seven years of struggling with conventional golf and being able to shoot consistently in the low 90s, I now have a higher handicap (it's been as high as 17 in my golf league with nine holes of play), I consistently shoot in the 103 to 110 range, everything on my body is sore.

I have come to the conclusion that I suck at golf, and there is nothing natural about it.

Don't believe all the hype. You either have some athletic ability or you do not. I do not.
