The Wright Swing was
filmed and edited by documentary filmmaker James
Hoagland. James also made The Lions Roar
extraordinary film on the life, teachings, and death of
His Holiness the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa.
"The Lion's Roar speaks
with uncommon clarity on the nature of Buddhist life and
thought... and captures in vivid and often haunting
imagery the theme of impermanence that is a key tenet in
Buddhist philosophy - a belief to which the Lion's Roar
stands as an important, lasting monument." Hollywood
Reporter.

Norrie, in addition to
having coached Donna White to victory in the US Ladies
Amateur, has also worked with PGA tour players,
including Bruce Crampton. He is one of the
foremost students of The Golfing Machine, perhaps the
most influential book and system of understanding ever
created. (www.thegolfingmachine.com).
He was known in his
playing days as one of the longest hitters on the
planet. To this day, when he demonstrates a shot,
the sound of his club compressing the ball is stunning.
Norrie is mentioned in the
best-selling book
Turning your Mind Into an Ally by Sakyong Mipham: (www.mipham.com)
My golf instructor, Norrie says that most of us are
"out- gainers", always looking to outer conditions for
success instead of creating the proper conditions
within.
He considers golf a game
of cause and effect in which we’re both the cause and
effect: We get mad, and no matter how much we want
to cast the blame elsewhere, it’s we who are to blame.
His point is that before taking a swing we have to
center ourselves - recognize what we’re feeling and come
to inner balance - if we are to if we want to make a
good shot. Otherwise we’ll be at the mercy of
inner volatility as well as the wind blowing across the
course. If we’re too wound up or too relaxed, our
ability to make the shot is compromised. If we’ve
stabilized ourselves first, we’ll naturally be able to
make our best swing. In order to know this, we need
awareness.
