From Norway to Gold Coast Fairways
By admin | March 18, 2008
Last week we welcomed Lars from Norway to the Gold Coast Golf School. Lars will be attending the GCGS for three weeks of complete golf training. In this time Lars will be educated in the ‘complete game of golf’.
As with all students that come to GCGS for golf improvement training, the initial step with Lars was out on the golf course so I could observe first hand what his current tendencies are in regards to his golf swing and how he plays the game of golf. We find this the best approach to golf improvement, as the game of golf is far greater than just the golf swing alone. Lars really appreciates the explanations included in our GCGS program and the increase in his understanding of the golf swing and how to play the game of golf.
After the on course assessment we have lunch and then off to the Analysis Centre, where we capture and analyse Lars playing his driver, long clubs, short irons, pitching, chipping, sand play and putting with our State of the Art computer software through a multiple camera set up.
Living in Norway most of his life, Lars has become a very experienced Telemark skier. As in skiing, golf requires very good balance (if you want to be good at it) but the methods of maintaining balance in his skiing are different to maintaining balance in his golf. Lars explained to me the techniques he uses in skiing to keep his balance through turns and manoeuvres and it looked quite similar to his leg movements in his golf swing.
With the use of our technology and training aids, I set a program for Lars to successfully reduce his over active leg and knee actions. His balance and stability are now greatly improved which is the basis of a sound, efficient and consistent golf swing.
