No two golfers are alike. Therefore, no twoswings are going to be alike. Body types, strength and flexibility widely vary. Taking into consideration these variables, I help students develop a swing unique unto themselves which will repeat as often as possible. The more the swing repeats correctly, the more predictable the outcome of the shot made. Consistent shotmaking will help the player to enjoy this great game to the best of their capabilities.
