Below are key learning dynamics involved in improving one’s golf game, from point-of views of both the Golfer and the Coach:
Do You Possess the 3 Key Traits of the Improving Golfer?
Instinctive Curiosity
If you are here, you are curious how to become a better golfer. The pursuit of the elusive perfect shot is what brings many golfers back. Modern technology has made professional golfers significantly better than their predecessors. Are you ready to use the same tools and feedback they do? Let’s feed your curiosity.
Embraces Change
Change doesn’t occur without … making a physical change! The highest hurdle in improving one’s swing is getting comfortable with a different “feel”. You will receive feedback and learning tools to properly implement the needed change to your swing. Various forms of feedback will be utilized (video, audio, kinesthetic) to allow you to learn.
Desire to Practice
The path to perfection can only be navigated through regular and structured practice. To become an improved golfer, one must master the goals of a previous lesson(s) prior to moving forward with the next. You will be provided techniques during your lesson that you can practice and perfect between lessons.
3 Key Channels of Coaching
Visual
It is difficult for a golfer to watch one’s self while swinging … and do you really trust your golf buddy’s swing advice? That’s why video feedback is critical. Perception of one’s swing is often very different from reality (Feel vs. Real)
Auditory
The art in coaching comes in finding ways to verbally communicate the same message to students of different learning styles. The goal is to provide enough insights so that you can coach yourself.
Kinesthetic
Training tools are frequently utilized to help you feel the change being recommended. Some changes come easy, others require physical guardrails to guide the swing or stroke.
To improve is to change, to be perfect is to change often.
