We're living in an age of power in which distance is king. Young players are taught to just murder the ball, and their swings have become incredibly fast and violent. This is fine for the world-class players you see on TV, but for the average golfer it often spells trouble. If you don't have superb hand-eye coordination, accuracy becomes a big issue. And in golf, accuracy is every bit as important as distance.

Something has been lost, a thing called "grace." The rhythmic, flowing type of swing that golfers used to envy and try to emulate has fallen by the wayside. It's too bad, because I believe the majority of golfers would play better if they practiced with a languid, flowing swing in mind. You'll hit the ball more solidly, have better timing and be more consistent. Not only that, you'll hit the ball just as far, if not farther, than before.
