Kaoru Nagai, also known as “Mr. Caro,” has been giving lessons at an indoor golf studio in Shinjuku for 30 years. At first glance, he seems like an ordinary old man, but Mr. Caro’s infinity theory and unique practice equipment are currently attracting the attention of professional golfers and professional coaches. In the golf magazine ALBA 904 issue released on Thursday the 14th, Tatsuya Hino, a fashion model who loves golf, experiences lessons with Mr. Caro. What are the weaknesses pointed out by the talented person with the best score of 68?

[Caro]When you look at a professional swing from the front, the club head has a beautiful oval shape. Mr. Hino creates impact, so the ellipse is slightly deformed, and the entire swing is distorted.
Hino’s head disappeared at the top, so he used his left foot, which he stepped into during the cutback, as a support stick and aligned his upper body with the ball. (Photo by Junji Takahashi)
[Hino]That’s right. Lately, I’ve been hitting a lot of punch shots with irons, and sometimes they fly and sometimes they don’t.
[Caro]When I step hard to the left, my muscles tense up and my foot stops. It’s loose at the top, so I stop and use my upper body to move the lowest point to the left. You have to feel where the head is.
[Hino]I have never really felt the weight of the head.
[Caro]When you spin a hose or hula hoop, you can spin it faster if you can feel where the center of gravity is. It’s the same with the swing.
If you can move the hose while the hand and head are pulling each other, you can spin the hose quickly. Easy to control speed (Photo: Junji Takahashi)
[Hino]The reason I think golf is difficult is that in tennis you keep moving (*Mr. Hino has experience as a tennis instructor), but in golf you move from a stopped position, so it’s hard to figure out how to move. do not have. I think it’s a very difficult sport.
[Caro]Actually, my infinity theory is the same as the tennis that Mr. Hino was able to do. In a typical golf lesson, we will teach you where to raise the top of the ball and how to create a “pause” before turning back. In tennis, were you thinking about the top or the switch?
[Hino]Everything changes depending on the ball the opponent hits, so I didn’t think about it at all.
[Caro]In terms of cars, the general method of teaching golf is to do a difficult back up, turn to neutral at the top, and then move forward.
In tennis, the ball is held up with the white side facing out, then turned over and hit with the red side. When considered in the direction of travel, the red surface is always in front (Photo: Junji Takahashi)
[Hino]In tennis, you do a U-turn without backing up.
[Caro]That’s right. Moreover, in tennis, the player swings with the hitting side facing down, then turns and hits the ball face up. This is the same movement as the figure-eight orbit in Infinity Theory.
[Hino]When you think about it, the golf moves I was doing were like aristocratic tennis (lol). You’ve done such difficult things in golf.
