Skillest
Looking for feedback on Skillest and any coaches.....pretty cool concept, but not sure how the feedback loop works, i.e. not having a coach with you face to face whilst trying to perform new 'moves' and providing feedback on the spot.

I dont use it, but i send videos to my mate/coach and he sends back feedback and drills to do.
I have a short attention span so any golf lesson over 2 mins is useless for me.
Theres 3 types of teaching, and most people best suited to one, verbal, visual and hands on. If you are the latter, ie you need coach to grab hold of you and move your body, then Skillest may not be for you.
Dennise Hutton uses Skillest but only if you already had a one on one with her. After the lesson she also uses skillest to send a video review and some drills to do.

Thats odd, Skillest doesnt do anything, its just a platform for real golf coaches to do online lessons. Sounds like your mate just used a coach that didnt work for him
