For the teacher and/or coach, the challenge is to give “instructions” in such a way as to guide and facilitate the natural learning process of the student, while not interfering with it. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

The best golf shots are hit when the timing of the energy transfer coincides with the squaring of the club face; and that’s about it. 🤷‍♂️ #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

I’d encourage you to explore the idea that the wrists should act as free swinging hinges. Adhering to this concept will not only allow you to maximise your club head speed, it’ll breed comfort and consistency into your action too. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

The golf swing can be likened to a throwing action. However, if you’ve never learnt to throw, this comparison is all but useless. That being said, it doesn’t mean you can’t learn to swing a golf club. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

I’ve played golf for over 30 years, 22 years spent as a coaching professional… I’ve long been coming to the realisation that the overwhelming majority of information available on the golf swing is, at best, completely unnecessary. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

The ability to deliver the golf club accurately is built on experiences which have nurtured a sensitive (mostly unconscious) “feel” of the clubs relationship to the ball and target. Pay attention to the whole club. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

It’s incredible that so many golfers, who’d love to shoot lower scores, simply don’t. Hit the ball over 200 yards and play courses under 6,500 yards… you could be in the 70s, regularly. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Playing golf and performing the golf swing is too complex for the intellectual mind to fully understand, let alone control. Its input and contribution often seem more destructive than constructive. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Simple Concept to Consider: The first purpose of the golf swing is simply to move the club head far enough away from the ball, so as to provide enough space for it to accelerate to an appropriate speed by the time it reaches impact. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Coaching on the golf course often makes me think that so many golf swing technique “lessons” are basically pointless. The game quickly becomes warped if all you do is live on a mat. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

The desired ball flight dictates the impact alignments. The impact alignments require an appropriate movement of the golf club. The movement of the golf club will encourage and organise the movement of the hands, arms and body. The task comes first. #golf #dorsetgolfcoach

Golf is a game which rewards decisiveness more than it rewards correctness. Decisiveness grows in self belief. Encourage independent thinking and do not run scared from failure. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

Hitting shots on the range is one thing, controlling the ball around the course is another. #golf #elsdongolf #dorsetgolfcoach

I’ve not competed for nearly 6 years. The itch has never gone away. Having been forced not to play for the last 2 years, I miss it more than ever. However, it’s amazing how even considering competing elicits all the same old thoughts and feelings. Conditioning runs deep! #golf

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them. Lest we forget...
