The Overview
Why the golf industry has little idea how to teach a basic golf swing and, furthermore, what is the proper amateur swing training instruction.
I understand some people are trying hard but not really reaching the general amateur. That is what GLG sees as a propblem and the GLG system will make a healthier and better average golfer.
Golf professionals have a very bad habit of being a golf professional. As far as I know golf pros are generally very nice people. The basic requirements to be a pro involves shooting par and running a pro shop. All this does not make them good teachers. Or even have an idea the average person has more physical issues than mental toughness issues.
Very simply put: the average golfer is more interested in physical fitness than winning anything other than a bet on the golf course. That's a disconnect with the pro before even beginning lessons.
And other than Tiger Woods, I don't think many pros understand all of the parts of a golf swing. They know what they do and little else: hey, it works for them.
As opposed to GLG, pros take one unit of the swing, make a big deal about it and ignore all the rest. See Youtube.com for proof.
"Better" is the aim of individual lessons and golf camps. Not to make you a "good" golfer, just a bit "better" from when you stepped through the door. Rarely will the training take enough time to go back to the physical and swing basics which results in a GOOD repeatable swing.
And most golf-pro lessons have little to do with the physics of a swing preventing the teaching of a good swing. Worst of all, most lessons given to beginners is so wrong the new golfer easily gets discouraged.
Good Looking Golf starts at the beginning with the grip and ends with waiting on the green for your buddies. No solution exists giving you a good swing in just 10 swings.
Unless your muscles are flexible and strong enough, from your feet to your head, you cannot hold the club in the swing plane.
If you want to see examples of golf nonsense please see Youtube. Please do not blame me, I think golf pros get paid by the word and therefore just cannot stop yapping.
"Good" is good, "better" may not be good, and "useless" is simply detrimental.
Our goal at GLG is a good and repeatable swing through our golf oriented healthy workout regimen.
The goal of most amateurs is making 4 good shots ina row. GLG is a good way to achieve this goal.
We don't make money on our golf ideas, rather through our healthy workouts featuring the movements needed for golf.
The Insufferable
Considering the amount of time I watch golf videos I can assure every pro I consider you a pleasant, verbal people. Only when professional golf people try to teach are they insufferable. Almost all golf videos are far too much on the yapping side, and very little of any interesting points. The interesting points involve a lack of understanding of the golf swing: they all believe whatever they do is correct. Rarely is this true.
So to all the pros, I'm trying here in GLG to bring more people enjoying more of their time on the golf course. I'm just doing it from an engineering point of view, not a low score. In fact, I expect many teaching channels to adopt my interpretation of a proper and repeatable golf swing.
I am not placing any copyright on my interpretation. Help yourself to make branded versions. Try and mention GLG.
So to all the people whose insufferable videos and written materials (Ben Hogan didn't have the internet. He was also just as yapping in his books) I have had to examine, we shall look to the future where, hopefully, nothing will be insufferable.
