Coaching news

Putting improvement

Warwick came for a putting lesson complaining of a lack of confidence on short putts and the feeling that his hands were twisting at impact causing erratic control.

putting

I identified that his eyeline was a long way inside the ball causing him to aim right of target and that his weight was 80% in his heels (left picture) causing his shoulders to twist left and pull putts. The feeling Warwick had of twisting hands was then an automatic compensation to try and save the pulling sensation.

We simply improved balance into the middle of the feet, getting the eyes more over the ball which gave better alignment then encouraged the shoulders to rock more up and down (right picture) which caused the putterhead to swing naturally down the target line.

The result - naturally more stable hands - and a reduction from 40 to 28 putts in his first round!

Gift ideas from Motocaddy

As we said last week, we know that over 70% of you use some sort of trolley to transport your clubs around the course, with many of you opting for an electric trolley. If you haven't done so already, why not consider asking for one of these Motocaddy accessories for Christmas this year?

Deluxe trolley mittens

Deluxe trolley mittens

Designed to fit any Motocaddy trolley, this gift provides maximum warmth and improves your trolley control through the winter’s coldest conditions. The fleece-lined mittens securely fit to the handle and also allow for both left and right-handed use.

Hedgehog winter wheels

Hedgehog winter wheels

Struggling to control your trolley and seeing it spit up mud all over your clothes can put a downer on winter golf, so consider the gift of these durable winter wheels, which reduce turf drag in wet ground conditions so your trolley doesn’t skid and dig up the course.

Deluxe seat

Deluxe seat

A gift that will keep on giving all year round is that of your own personal seat! Easy to fit, this comfortable padded seat has spacious internal storage and allows you to take the strain off your feet while you’re waiting for the group in front.

Give a Garmin

Buying a present for that golfing-mad relative can be hard but a new GPS device should definitely be on the list, especially at some of the prices we’re selling these Garmins for in the run up to the big day…

There are many ways a GPS device will help improve your scores. All three of these Garmin devices provide accurate distances to the green, plus yardages to key hazards, giving you the knowledge you need to make safer shot decisions so you avoid making big scores.

Having your yardages ready each time will also help speed up play, while you can use the handheld units’ colour hole maps to guide you on blind holes when playing new courses.

So with both handheld and wearable options available at a range of prices, now could be the ideal time to suggest that perfect Christmas present.
