Golf Psychology Lesson
* Do you feel at a loss as to why you are not improving as much as you feel you ought to be? * Do you feel like you are able to hit good shots on the practice ground but then when on the course or under pressure you can never do the same? * Do you get so nervous that it affects your ability to play well? * Do you overthink your shots? * Do you lose concentration? * Have you lost your enthusiasm for the game? * Is there one specific area of the game that always lets you down?
If you answered 'yes' to any of the above then we are confident we can help you find the root of the problem and provide you with the help you need. Emma is offering private golf psychology sessions. The sessions are 45 minutes long and cost £25.
Emma is confident she will be able to help you understand your own thinking and game better and provide you with positive structured feedback that will not only improve how you practice but will improve how you play and feel about your game.
Emma is only able to take on 5 clients for this service, as she is a very busy lady. Call 01962 885254 or click here.
One For The Ladies…
Ladies if your clubs were not custom fit for you specifically or you bought them without being offered any sort of personalised custom fitting service, then you have been let down. Yes, you might be a standard off the shelf fit, but if you were not measured in any way, shape or form you could be missing out.
You may be thinking;
"surely I'm not good enough to warrant being custom fit"… wrong!
What you need to realise is that if the best, most talented golfers in the world, who could probably play with any old clubs, take the time to be custom fit, then you definitely need all the help you can get!
Just think about all the different ladies at your golf club, there is unlikely to be many of you who are the same height, strength, arm length and grip size; so why would you use the same set up of clubs? Custom fitting for women needs to change and that is where we want to lead the way!
On Friday 26th May we are offering ladies to come along and get their current clubs checked to see if they are set up correctly. We will check:
1) The Grip Size - which affects your grip pressure, which in turns affects your swing speed distance that you hit and your ability to square up the clubface at impact. Yes that is how important having the correct grip size is.
2) The Club Length - we will measure your wrist to floor length to ensure that the clubs are the correct size, which massively affects your ability to strike the ball consistently.
3) The Shaft Flex - we will check your swing speed using our state of the art GC2 ball flight monitoring system. It will provide us with accurate readings of your speeds to make sure your shafts are neither too heavy or light for you, both of which greatly affects your ability to produce good distance.
4) Clubhead Design - we will check that the clubheads you have are of a design that suits the way you hit the ball or want to hit the ball, for example if you feel you would like to hit the ball higher or lower or consistently miss-hit shots we will guide you on what you may need.
You will also have the opportunity to try out any of our current ladies equipment to compare to your current set. The appointments are 30 minutes long (more time is available upon request).
To book please call 01962 885254 or click here. |
