Time tested philosophy for
better golf |
John
and Lori Randle, Lead GBC Golf Academy Instructors believe
that everyone can learn to play better golf and get
more enjoyment from his or her game. In order to help
their students, they have developed a program of instruction
that is easy to understand and effective for all levels
of golfer.
At
the heart of the school's philosophy is the knowledge
that every golfer is different. Each student has his
or her own learning style, physical abilities and goals
for golf. This fact shapes each school's itinerary to
fit each student's needs.
John
and Lori believe the reason most golfers fail to improve
is the information and concepts they are using to shape
their games is incorrect. Experience has shown them
most golfers, in their pursuit of these wrong concepts,
are desperately trying to accomplish things in their
swings that will never work. When golfers are shown
the correct concepts these golfers usually improve quite
rapidly.
These key concepts hinge on two elements:
- The
understanding that golf clubs, from putter to driver,
need to do certain things through the impact zone
to create a good golf shot. The clubface must return
to square at impact, it must be swinging towards the
target at impact and the ball must be struck in the
centre of the face.
Most golfers are familiar with these ideas but don't
truly understand what they mean. John and Lori's first
goal is to ensure each student understands these key
concepts because they form the foundation of everyone's
golf game.
- Each
golfer needs to learn how he or she should swing the
club. While the golf club needs to do certain things
through impact, each golfer must learn a swing best
suited to his or her strength, flexibility and time
for the game. John and Lori don’t ask students
to make swings like the pros; they help students learn
THEIR best swing.
So
there you have it. You will learn WHAT the club
should be doing to hit consistent golf shots and HOW
you should be swinging to make it happen. This combination
will give you the blueprint for your golf game for the
rest of your life.
