I'm a mom trying her best to support her teen son's golf habit. ;)
Actually, he's very good and has been playing since he was 6. His dad and I don't play, so he's always had to go it alone. I'm very proud of him.
I just thought I'd say hello. I am on here because I need advice on clubs for my son. I'm on a strict budget. He's trying out for his high school team. 

I hope you're all having a great summer!

Hope you stick around, even if we're all a bit crazy! :-)

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
