Teaching Philosophy
The majority of golfers are over-coached mechanically and under-developed athletically. The modern instruction industry has conditioned golfers to think about positions, angles, and checkpoints — when in reality, speed and power are the product of concept, intent, instinct, and reaction. Quiet the mind, unleash the athlete, and the swing takes care of itself. At the heart of Rob's coaching is an array of unconventional mental and physical training principles that he's spent years developing... drawing from everything he learned as a professional baseball pitcher, a World Long Drive competitor, a college basketball player, and a student of elite sports performance. He trained alongside some of the world's leading sports gurus and used himself as a guinea pig every step of the way. The result is a system that generates instantly faster swing speed with a dramatically reduced risk of injury. And as a very welcome side effect, faster swing speed makes every sub-maximal swing feel easier — which means better ball-striking, more consistency, and lower scores. My goal is simple: to give every golfer, at every level, the tools to swing faster, drive further. Core Principles: Focus on the golf swing as an athletic movement, because that's exactly what it is. Concept and Intent: With the proper mental concept and intent you can bypass hundreds of hours of mechanical and drill work, and see dramatic swing-speed and distance improvement immediately. The more talented the athlete/player, the less coaching he needs. Conversely, the opposite is also true. And always, always, keep things as simple and instinctual as possible.
About the coach
Rob Harrand
is a 2 x Major League Baseball draft pick (Los Angeles Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies) and former pitcher with the Philadelphia Phillies organization. He is also a former World Long Drive competitor, a former college basketball player and a 6 x international slam dunk contest winner.
From thousands of hours spent working with some of the world's leading sports gurus and trainers, (including Tom Brady's throwing coach) and from his own personal research, testing and training, Rob was able to achieve a 150 mph swing-speed, a personal best drive of 417 yards, a 97 mph fastball, a 44 inch vertical jump and a 4.41 40 yard time. This point of mentioning all of this isn't to boast, but to convey that Rob has put in the work and used himself as a guinea pig, so to speak, to ensure that what he teaches truly gets results.
Pure Distance Golf
In 2017, out of a passion for golf, Rob founded Pure Distance Golf, a specialty golf company focused solely on helping golfers all over the world increase their swing-speed and distance. Today, Rob is known as one of the leading swing-speed and distance specialists in the world, and looks forward to helping you achieve your swing-speed and distance goals.
The PDG System:
From day one, Rob's goal with Pure Distance Golf was to take everything he's learned about speed and explosiveness playing other sports and apply it to golf and the golf swing. The result is The PDG System. It's the exact system Rob used to go from swinging 112 mph to 150 mph in 12 weeks. At the heart of the PDG system is an array of unconventional mental and physical training principles that focus on concept, intent, instinct, athleticism, reaction, and quieting the mind. The result is instantly faster swing-speed and distance, with a greatly reduced risk of injury. As an aside, it probably won't hurt your feelings to know that you can expect greatly improved ball-striking and consistency, too.
Who Is PDG For?
Simply put, Pure Distance Golf is for any golfer who is serious about greatly increasing their swing speed and distance with every club in the bag. Pure Distance Golf is not a general golf game improvement company. Rob doesn't teach putting or the short. There are much more qualified people who do that. Rob is a swing-speed and distance specialty coach.
