My philosophy on improving your game
You do not need the perfect swing to improve. I will always teach the player as an individual and find the swing that works best for you. Having a clear understanding of what is happening in your swing will fast track your road to improvement.
​
The Art of Teaching is the ability to choose the least invasive way to change the golfer's mechanics to come up with the desired net effect on the club movement to change their impact alignments. I am always looking to keep things simple and not confuse the golfer. The visual feedback available enables this to take place.
why being tpi certified is the most important qualification i have:
Being TPI Certified gives me all the tools to identify and test limitations in your golf swing. This is huge as it helps us create the swing that is going to work best for you.
There are 16 points of interest in the TPI screening and having the advanced knowledge of all 16 points of interest allows me to create the swing that will work best for you. This is perfectly explained by the Jon Rahm video below.
Jon Rahm talking about the limitations in his body and how it shapes his swing.
This is so relevant for me as most of you out there have restrictions in your swing that I need to know about!
" I knew the short game was important but I did not know the best way to improve it. Jack showed me a series of drills for pitching and chipping that I have been able to take the the course and am loving the backspin I am getting! Thanks Jack."
- Rory.
