Awesome to be included at #6 with some great Missouri instructors on the Best Teachers by State list from Golf Digest.

Been doing online instruction work from my backyard range during this COVID-19 lockdown. Working here with Steven Ford on a few items this week. Don’t wait - we can use video, Zoom, Face Time and get some great work in. Message me and let’s go.

Wanted to share a review of my SSR that Michael Blade posted. Had some very beneficial chats with Michael while he was working with the SSR.

Putting Putting consists of basically two elements: Distance and Direction. The length and pace plus the angle of approach of your putting stroke will control the distance the putt rolls. The aim, stance and swing path of your putting set-up and swing determine the direction your putt rolls. Set-up.... Grip the Putter with Palms facing each other and parallel to the putter face. Aim the putter square to the line you want the putt to start on. Stand with the putter handle to the center of you and your shoulders square to the line you want the putt to start on. Hands and arms hang under the shoulders with eyes over the line of the putt. Putting Stroke Arms, shoulders and putter move together as a unit to produce a stroke that moves slightly inside the line in the backswing to straight thru down the target line in the follow thru. The follow thru carries the shaft angle from address thru to the finish. Distance will be determined by the length and pace of your putting stroke. Direction will be controlled by your set-up on the line you want the putt to start. The distance of your putt is best seen from the side of your putt while direction is best seen from behind.

Do you Know what your Virus is? It may seem odd to consider the notion of your golf swing having a virus, but the fact is that every golfer, regardless of skill set, has a virus. The problem for most golfers is that they truly don’t know what their virus is or how to properly correct it. Instead, they just treat the symptoms. I have always related the golf swing to having a cold. When you have a cold, you treat the symptoms: runny nose, cough, fever, congestion, headache, et...c. The fact is, until the virus you have goes away, you will continue to have a cold and can only treat the symptoms to feel better. Your golf swing is very much the same. Every swing has a virus, and the symptoms are what you can treat to make you feel better. If you slice the ball to the right, you can start aiming and swinging left. If you hook the ball to the left, you can start aiming and swinging right. If you hit the top of the ball, you can try to keep your head down. If you hit the ground, you can try to lift your head up. It becomes a never-ending cycle of adding to your swing to make up for your symptoms. All of these symptoms will remain until you properly treat them and eventually remove the virus. Back to the title Do you Know what your Virus is? In other words, do you know what the root cause of the symptoms plaguing your golf swing is? If not, then you need to find out. Until you get to the root cause (i.e., the virus) of your symptoms, you will only be able to treat the symptoms, but not actually get rid of them. Enter to your treatment regimen Plane Simple Golf Academy’s Swing Program, which addresses the root cause of your golf swing’s virus and helps to eliminate it. Once the virus has been identified and corrected, your golf swing is on the mend. You will be able to correct the shots that you have been hitting in error (i.e., your symptoms) and move forward to your virus-free statethe correct swing and contact. Your golf swing will begin to move toward being fully correct, instead of working to make up for what is incorrect and never reaching its full potential. Learning in golf is not difficult, but unlearning is. Unlearning all of the things you have been doing wrong and learning the correct swing will take time, patience, and discipline. If you do not identify the virus in your golf swing, then you will limit your ability to put what you have learned to use because the virus will keep you from unlearning your bad habits. Until you properly treat the virus and unlearn your symptoms, your errors will stay around and inhibit your ability to put good habits into practice.

As the 2020 Golf season approaches, I sit here wondering, what are players going to be doing this year to give them the best golf season they have ever had? Obvious changes could be new clubs, a different golf ball, a new found enthusiasm or just a will to be better this year. All very good things, but let’s look a little deeper. If you want to make this your best year of golf, you have to look at what you are going to do to improve your game. If you have been (at) the same... handicap or shot the same scores for years, then you must change what you are going to do this season to make a difference. Just practicing the same things you have been working on before more often isn’t going to get it done. If you want a more effective result, you have to do something more effective. After 30 plus years of teaching this game, here is what I have learned: The quickest route to lower scores and better ball striking come from taking instruction from someone who is versed in ball flight/cause and effect impact control. It is the quickest route to impact control, consistency and lower scores. I know, I did the very same thing by working with John Jacobs early in my career who is known as one of the best ball flight/cause and effect teachers. I know from personal experience how quickly the impact can improve. In addition, you need to be able to have a practice plan that is consistent and continues to help you work toward your impact goals. If you try something different every time you practice, then you will continue to struggle. I can see some of you shaking your head in agreement. So for this season, I would look for someone to help coach you in controlling your impact, developing a solid practice plan and routine, and follow it. This will give you the best opportunity for some great improvement in 2020.

For any of my followers here interested in improving your golf in 2020 - drop me a note and let’s discuss your game and a program to make it the best it has been. [email protected]

If you want ball control and distance - you have to get the shaft inline with the lead arm and on plane in the backswing. Anything else leads to compensation and control problems
