IMPROVE EVERY DAY
Whether you’re a Tour Pro or a weekend player, there’s always room for improvement. The more you understand about the forces at work in the golf swing, the better you’ll be able to control the club face and strike the ball. When I’m on the range or on the course as a coach, I do my best to explain these natural forces in a way that reveals the “a-ha moment” for players. It doesn’t matter what your handicap is, seeing how other golfers are applying their understanding to improve will ultimately help you fine tune your swing as well. I’m also going to share firsthand experiences at some of the world’s finest courses, so you’ll know what to expect when you visit and play. This is what the Player Lessons section is all about.
