Hi Guy's and gals'
Today Peter and myself went out to Lakeside Golf Course on the Gold Coast for a hit.The course was in great condition and it was so windy
From the first tee I could see that Pete's Set up was all wrong. He was way closed with his shoulders where open. He was coming across the ball and blocking shot's.
Also his chipping was too much wrist action.
We played 9 holes and hit 1000 balls into each green
Hit started to hit the ball really well, his alligment was so much better and his impact improved 100 percent.
He hit some great bunker shots and nearly holed 2 chip's.
I feel because peter is a big guy and hit's it very solid when he makes good contact with the ball, Once we fix his impact and Pete keeps a good straight left wrist through the ball he will be a full club longer off the tee.
This is what I had him doing from the first Tee.
I had him feel like his feet where open to the target. At first he did not like it but after a few holes he had it right every time.
I worked on the impact and put a tee in front of his ball and made Peter hit past the ball and take the tee out of the ground ( this worked great and his impact improved so much)
In the Bunkers I had him hitting a fake $5.00 note under the ball so he took sand and Man did he start to get som spin.
Chipping was great after a few holes with keeping the left wrist as straight as possible through the ball.
He hit some fantastic drives on the par 4 and one was up along side mine
All in all we had a fantastic day and I got some great video of his swing.
I wish all my internet students lived close to me, I would love to take them all out for a day of golf.
Below is a picture of Pete on the 9th Tee
Thank's pete for a great day
