Summit 2015 Combined.Pdf The 14th PGA Teaching & Coaching Summit presented by OMEGA Since 1988, premier instructors have gathered in an effort to increase their knowledge of the golf swing, learn more about key technology outside the lesson tee, and share best practices with their colleagues. The 14th PGA Teaching & Coaching Summit presented by OMEGA is another important chapter in a PGA Professional tradition of highlighting the core values of educating others and sharing knowledge. The Summit theme of “A Lifetime Learning Experience” encompasses what we all have come to love and appreciate about the game of golf. It is a lifetime pursuit of excellence through continued learning and networking with our industry peers. This Summit connects the best, the brightest and the aspiring professionals to exchange ideas and knowledge. We trust the outcome will be that our PGA Professionals will return home to enhance the enjoyment of golfers and continue to grow our great game. We have assembled a celebrated cast of instructors, including nine national PGA Teachers of the Year. They are joined by several of the world’s premier performers to ignite new ideas or polish some that may already be within your teaching repertoire. Our thanks to presenting sponsor, OMEGA, for its commitment to PGA Professionals and to this outstanding educational event. We also thank our media partner, GOLF Magazine, for its sponsorship of the World Golf Teachers Hall of Fame reception. GOLF Magazine also hosts the induction ceremonies for its “Top 100 Teachers in America” and the World Golf Teachers Hall of Fame. The PGA Teaching & Coaching Summit Committee continues to work with your busy schedule to provide this forum of learning ahead of the PGA Merchandise Show. What follows is an overview of the schedule for the two days of the 14th PGA Teaching & Coaching Summit presented by OMEGA. DAY 1 MICHAEL BREED, the 2012 PGA Teacher of the Year and veteran host of Golf Channel’s “The Golf Fix,” returns as our Master of Ceremonies. Breed’s infectious enthusiasm will help us navigate through an extensive schedule of presenters and panelists. We start with PGA of America President DEREK SPRAGUE, who sets the stage for the Summit. He is followed by MIKE ADAMS, the “Golf Doctor,” who will guide the first of an unprecedented six live student presentations on stage. PAUL HURRION, one of two presenters from the United Kingdom, will share research on putting, through his presentation entitled, “The Game Within a Game.” SEAN FOLEY and MARTIN HALL, the 2008 PGA Teacher of the Year, along with Mike Adams and 2013 PGA Teacher of the Year LOU GUZZI, form a panel discussion on “What, Why & How to Make Adjustments.” The panel will be moderated by 1999 PGA Teacher of the Year MIKE McGETRICK. Foley will lead a second full-swing live session, preceding a joint presentation by DR. T.J. TOMASI and DR. MARK GUADAGNOLI on “Why Your Student’s Game Won’t Travel to the Golf Course.” CHUCK COOK, the 1996 PGA Teacher of the Year, will lead the third student presentation of the day, sharing his time on stage with one of his star pupils, 2013 PGA Champion JASON DUFNER. For more expertise on how a tour professional continues to inspire others, the Summit is proud to welcome World Golf Hall of Famer NANCY LOPEZ. Her Summit debut will feature a wide-ranging “Fireside Chat” with 1987 PGA Teacher of the Year DR. GARY WIREN. GOLF Magazine caps Day 1 with two special ceremonies – the publication’s “Top 100 Teachers in America” and the introduction of the 2015 inductees into the World Golf Teachers Hall of Fame. Don’t miss the GOLF Magazine-sponsored celebratory reception (on the Fourth Floor – Valencia Foyer) from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. DAY 2 PGA Chief Executive Officer PETE BEVACQUA opens this session by highlighting the importance of teaching to the game. Bevacqua is followed by a live student lesson given by CHRIS COMO and BERNIE NAJAR, utilizing the technology found in the center of pressure plates and ball flight numbers. They are followed by JAMES RIDYARD of the United Kingdom, who will share his research in “Mastering the Wedge Game.” Then, 2007 PGA Teacher of the Year JIM HARDY will team with World Golf Teacher Hall of Fame instructor DAVID LEADBETTER to share their latest thoughts on golf instruction. The afternoon schedule features a panel discussion, “Connecting with Women: From Our Perspective.” Moderated by GOLF Channel’s DAMON HACK, the panel consists of 2014 PGA Teacher of the Year KATHY GILDERSLEEVE–JENSEN, GALE PETERSON, KELLIE STENZEL and KRISTA DUNTON. Two great friends and World Golf Teacher Hall of Famers, BUTCH HARMON and 1994 PGA Teacher of the Year JIM McLEAN, who have worked with many of the world’s greatest players, will team for the Summit’s final live lesson. Following a break, Summit Chair ED IBARGUEN will moderate a panel featuring World Golf Teacher Hall of Famers BUTCH HARMON, DAVID LEADBETTER, JIM HARDY, CHUCK COOK, JIM McLEAN and MIKE ADAMS. The Summit closes with MICHAEL BREED sitting down with OMEGA’s special guest and brand ambassador, GREG NORMAN, for what promises to be a fascinating “Fireside Chat” with the World Golf Hall of Famer.

  • 2200 Year Old Mathematical Theory Combines with Space Age Computer ® Design and CNC Manufacturing to Produce the Putting Arc
    2200 year old mathematical theory combines with space age computer ® design and CNC manufacturing to produce The Putting Arc . Now you can feel, see and learn the Perfect Putting Stroke. Learn the 'arc type' stroke used by the vast majority of the modern day touring pros. For a 'Quick Start' and simple instructions, go to the back page. The Putting Arc works because… 1. It is based on a natural body movement which can be quickly learned and repeated. Results can be seen in several days ... thousands of repetitions are not required. 2. The clubhead travels in a perfect circle of radius R, on an inclined plane. The projection (or shadow) of this circle on the ground is a curved line called an ellipse, and this is the curve found on The Putting Arc . 3. The putter is always on plane (the sweet spot/spinal pivot plane). The intersection of this plane with the ground is a straight line, the ball/target line. (See Iron Archie - page 11) 4. The clubface is always square to the above plane. It is only square to the ball/target line at the center line on The Putting Arc . You are learning an inside to square to inside putting stroke. (See Iron Archie - page 11) 5. The lines on the top of The Putting Arc show the correct club face angle throughout the stroke, including a square initial alignment. This concept is as important as the arc itself , and it is a patented feature of The Putting Arc . 6. In this perfect putting stroke, there is only one moving part.
