First, I want to thank everyone for
their nice comments about the monthly golf instruction email called Different Strokes that
is being sent out to all members. I hope you are able to receive more
concise and consistent updates on what is occurring in our golf instruction programs. Let us know your thoughts!
Second, I hope everyone has a
wonderful holiday season. I have a lot to be thankful for this year. Additionally, I
am happy to be able to pass along my knowledge, encouragement and new training
ideas that will hopefully translate into lower scores and more enjoyable rounds
for students!
I've been seeing golf in a new light lately and think
it can be considered one big science project. Golfers are always
looking for improvement through analysis, theories and results, much like a science experiment. When you're out at the range and learning and
testing an idea, don't be afraid to try the extremes to see what results come
about. Don't be afraid to try different clubs to see what will
happen. If a golfer is having trouble with a slice and the club's face is
impacting the golf ball open (or pointed to the right for right-handed golfers
and left for left-handed golfers at impact), what kind of grip, even if
exaggerated, will allow for a different club face result? If you feel
more comfortable trying these experiments with a lab partner,
the golf staff at The Landings Club is happy to help guide you through your
project!
Happy Golfing!
