This book is written utilizing a neutral format-neutral in technique and neutral in the training foundation. Neutral in technique means within the parameters of acceptability based on body types. Not too steep, not too flat-neutral. Not too long, not too short-neutral. Hands not too far forward, hands not too far back-neutral. And so on. Neutral in terms of the training foundation refers to the neutral midpoint between being overly technical and completely neglecting technique. This neutral foundation is based on a concept that regards personality types, swing types, and even body types; some need more work on technique and some need more work on distance control and feel. Plus some individuals' stats show they need more work on chipping, putting, or shot shaping, for instance. You will see that it's OK to vary, but it is important to be cautious of venturing too far from neutral training.
