Butch Harmon on Manuel de la Torre

I like to go to seminars, listen to other pros. Whether I agree with their principles or not is immaterial, because if you learn one thing, it’s worth your while. You’re better at what you do. The more you teach, the more you have an open mind, the better you become. I just like hearing people talk about the golf swing.

What do think of Manuel De La Torre?

I think he’s been a great instructor for years. He’s made the game very simple and easy to understand, which to me is the whole key to it. He’s one of the most respected people in our business and I was so happy to see that he finally into Golf Magazine’s Teaching Hall of Fame -- which my father’s not even in, which to me, is a joke. But I only get one vote.
