Without trying to be condescending, no. I am not a golf fan, and I already know that practice makes perfect. If I were to devote 10000 hours of my life in something it would be more "cerebral" than a motor skill/sport. Just my point of view.
For example: if this guy decided to devote 10000 hours to make a machine that would connect and download golf into his brain, now that would be cool.
- jamesbkel 16y agoCertainly practice approches perfect. The interesting part here is to quantify the practice to perfection radio in the context of the well known 10,000hr rule. Golf works well for this since it's fairly objective at the individual level. I'm not interested in golf, but I found it interesting to read through the article and see I thought his use of golf as a skill had some merit, but also where I think he's a bit off. Regardless of the outcome, I hope he follows through and documents well. That said, I definitely pick up what you're putting down on the 'cerebral' aspect.
- ignifero 16y agoSee i think his choice of golf (or most sports where you rely mostly on repetitive physical training) is a bad one. It's like a brute force attack - effective, but not much of an achievement.
