Ben Hogan once said, "It's not that people
can't perform the move, they just can't feel it."

The
average handicap has not improved significantly
over the last 25 years, even as golf ball and
club technology continue to improve. This is because
most amateurs do not improve their swing. One
of the biggest problems that most amateurs make
in their quest to improve their swing is to try
one 'tip' after another. But if you haven't diagnosed
the problem and what is causing it, the tip may
actually create more problems instead of correcting
it.
I believe that the best way to improve your golf
game is through proper analysis of your swing
and instruction on how to correct any swing flaws.

| Neil
has recently acquired a new high-tech teaching aid,
the K-Vest. This device, with wireless military
sensors and motion software, tracks real-time parameters
during your swing. This includes the angle and speed
of rotation of hips, torso and hands, dynamically
during the swing. Neil states, "With this equipment,
I can help the student to maximize his or her body
position to maximize the kinetic link. The kinetic
link is the body's ability to create maximum speed
and power by properly sequencing body movement."
Neil is currently one of two Level 1 instructors
in the state (there are only 22 nationwide) and
the only one in the Houston area to invest in this
technology for his students. |
