Sir Issac Newton was one of the world's most influential thinkers. He tackled what most people would consider to be complicated topics. But most things when explained in layman's terms become a slot simpler.

For example one of Sir Issac Newton's Laws of Physics states, 'For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction'. In simpler terms, if you run at a brick wall at full speed, what do you think the equal and opposite reaction will be?

In golf we can apply this theory very easily in regards to your golf swing. If you are having difficulty in getting the ball in the air, or you hit "worm burners", or low shots you may be using his theory backwards without knowing it.

What some people may think about how to get a golf ball off the ground, by swinging up on the ball, or trying to lift it off the ground, actually produces the opposite result desired. Remember the law, an equal and opposite reaction. Swinging up produces an opposite reaction, a downward reaction of the ball. In contrast, swinging down on a ball, or hitting the ball on the downswing, produces the opposite reaction, the upward reaction of the ball.

The other factor that comes into play here is the golf club. The clubs are designed to achieve a degree of lift according to the loft of the club. The loft on a four iron is less than the loft of a nine iron. The four iron will get the ball in the air enough to allow it to go longer where the nine iron will get the ball a lot higher for closer shots you want to land softer.

Bob Power is in pursuit of answers to questions that people have asked him to find answers for. His goal is to make the seemingly complicated more understandable for his readers! Bob has written on everthing from golf, fuel savings technology and cell phones.

One of his goals was to explore as many topics as possible. His motto is tha it is better to know a little bit about a lot of things, instead of knowing a whole lot about few things.

Many things have surprised him and he is especially pleased that topics such as MLM yeilded such positive information. As jaded as he was he now acknowledges that MLM may have some of the most leading edge technology products and the most potential of impacting your life in a positive way.

He was also suprised at how simple some things became after researching them. Such as how a golf ball actually flies through the air. How some simple automotive products you can use can reduce exhaust emissions. The Internet and how exciting Feeds were going to be for the consumer in the near future. How easy it was to actually produce and publish Feeds and how powerful they will be for business. How easy it was to produce an eBook and how just about anyone can publish easily.

Bob's goals are to play golf on the Champions Tour, at least for one tournament, write a novel and travel the world with his wife of over 30 years.

Ultimately Bob's long term goal is to be able to influence, in a positive way, as many people as possible. He hopes these articles, and advice, helps in some way.
