A great coach once said ‘the path to success is always under construction”. From a swing stand point I like to see solid foundations, great grips and the ability to set up into the shot with the right ball position and posture consistently. When practiced diligently, it becomes part of a solid routine.

I like to provide my players with simple drills in order to help them get the correct feels needed. Quite often we train at slower speeds from different positions in the swing in order develop the right movements. Some drills can be performed at home without a ball, others can be used on the range.

📈In my performance coaching I like to take a deep dive into a players overall performance. Technique is important, however we must remember that a player needs to learn how to perform when they don’t have their ‘A’ game. Quite often their is low hanging fruit a player and coach can take advantage of which will accelerate on course performances. These areas will often stick out like a sore thumb when we analyse objective data. We will look at the following:
➖Player evaluation document (subjective however very informative
➖Performance Summary based on objective data
➖Practice plan
➖Tracking performance in practice
➖Mental Performance including focus areas on the course, breathing, routines and a lot more
