I have played a lot of hours of golf. However there are young kids that can beat me and they have only been playing a few years.

that might be a good number to throw out, but in many fields some reach a top level quicker and some are never capable. This is correct. Originally the term was (pretty much made out of thin air). It was originally from a book called "The Sports Gene" and the "theory" has been widely criticized. ............. The SPorts Gene Actually, the 10K hours "rule" wasn't pulled out of thin air, it came from the early 2000s published studies of master violin students by Dr. Anders Ericsson, an FSU psychologist and adopted by many publications since. It's a pretty decent indicator of how long it takes to raise your game to the "expert" level in anything, but as others have mentioned, it's not an exact science (with the endless variables involved in this discussion, no amount of hours could ever cover everything). He also stated that 10K hours of practice alone wouldn't make anyone an expert, but that it took "deliberate practice" with constant improvements and tweaks to truly master any particular activity. He stressed that 10K hours of practicing terrible technique would only serve to yield terrible results. Learning from mistakes and constantly pushing yourself over time at your activity is more important than any arbitrary amount of hours. Actually, had you read my link, you would have noted to the very article you cited. I also said it has been widely criticized and it has.

Also, in actual sports, the genetic component far surpasses any amount of practice. I could practice (focused and the most thorough practice possible) and I simply do not have the genetics to hit a baseball 450 ft. Roughly only one. In a million do.

Your link mentions the original study, but your post claimed it was originally from the book and the 10k theory was pulled out of "thin air". It's arguing semantics. Definitely an interesting discussion though - too many variables to dial in with a blanket "number". I agree with you on genetics taking precedence over practice time in most sports though. Some things you just need to be born with...
