PGA Professional Christopher Smith and Neuro-Cognitive Therapist Darren Painter present some of the most recent fi ndings on how the brain can operate more effi ciently, and the training methods that lead to supercharged learning. Bottom line: the better your brain functions and processes, the better you perform. And, "learning to learn" is paramount to progress in the golf swing, as well as the game of golf itself. "Your Brain: Your Brain On Golf" addresses neither sports psychology, nor the 'mental game' per se, but rather offers material taken from the most up-to-date research conducted by top neuroscientists, motor learning specialists and human performance experts on just how the brain can perform better, and the ideal ways to practice. Translation for the golfer: more effi cient golf swings, sharpened focus, lower scores. .

  • Elite Insider Circle Monthly Handicap Improver September 2016
    Elite Insider Circle Monthly Handicap Improver September 2016 Hello Fellow Golf Enthusiast, This is Jaacob Bowden. Last Month To recap last month, we had a piece from golf expert Adam Young called “Take Control of Your Game” in which he talked about his teaching process and how he helps students learn how to rectify problems without him even being there. We had a Long Drive Q&A with 4-time World Long Drive Champion Sandra Carlborg of Sweden. Some of the things I think that are worth pointing out about Sandra’s Q&A are: • She tests drivers using a Flightscope launch monitor to help dial in her equipment for maximum distance. • She has swung 117.5 mph in the World Championships. To remind you and give you some perspective on that…male amateurs and LPGA players average around 93 mph and PGA TOUR players average around 113 mph. So as you can see, club head speed is very important for distance. • She spends time in the gym to improve her body’s ability to swing. We see this over and over in these Long Drive Q&A’s. No long hitter of this caliber swings this fast naturally. They all work on their bodies. Fortunately, this is something you can do too at any age or skill level. I talked about my in-person experiences and observations attending this year’s PGA Championship at Baltusrol in New Jersey. From a handicap improving standpoint, a couple of the key things that I was reminded of are: • Lots of different swing styles and techniques can be effective on a global level, even if they aren’t the most optimal.

  • How Memorial Day Helped Heal Our Nation
    HOW MEMORIAL DAY HELPED HEAL OUR NATION Many towns lay claim to being the birthplace of Memorial Day, the day we remember those who have died in war. Right after the Civil War, local civic groups in a number of communities held a "decoration day" where they went out and placed flowers and wreaths on the graves of fallen soldiers. Generally, these groups were concerned with honoring one side or the other—their own Confederate or Union dead. So it was significant that when General James Garfield presided over the first official Memorial Day (then called Decoration Day) in 1868 at Arlington National Cemetery, the 5,000 participants decorated the graves of 20,000 Union and Confederate soldiers.1 When these men fell in battle, they were mortal enemies, fighting for very different causes. More than a few of them had likely shot at each other. Unlike other war-related observances, the veterans groups planning this first official day of remembrance chose to observe it on May 30, a day with no significant battle.2 Normally, war memorials are built by the victors to honor their triumph. But in the years after the War Between the States all dead were honored, giving a chance for the long process of healing to begin. Professor Gregory Bucher notes that this is a lesson we learned from the Romans, who had ample experience with civil war. He writes that when Augustus inherited an empire socially and economically devastated by the wars ending with Antony and Cleopatra, he built a great public plaza, the Forum of Augustus, in an attempt to foster national unity.

  • PGA Sports Academy Player Level
    PGA Sports Academy Player Level 1 PGA Sports Academy Purpose/Mission: The PGA Sports Academy program is a collaborative framework based on research and best practices from PGA Professionals, PGA Education, allied associations and the Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) standards for juniors adopted by the PGA World Alliance. The PGA Sports Academy’s focus is to develop core golfers and provide them with pathways to continue to play golf socially or competitively based on each individual’s desire. It is imperative that every parent/participant understands the process of LTAD in the PGA Sports Academy program so that they have a clear understanding of what the PGA Professional is trying to accomplish with each participant. PGA Professionals are strongly encouraged to distribute a copy of The PGA Sports Academy Parent Resource to parents before their child begins the PGA Sports Academy to help outline the curriculum and expectations for the program. Fun – First And Foremost Fun – First and Foremost is our junior golf mantra. We must make sure new golfers are engaged and have a fun, interactive experience. To educate and get juniors involved in golf is the goal, but keeping it fun is the primary focus. It’s crucial that instructors enjoy the experience— juniors will sense your love of the sport and hopefully become smitten for a lifetime. PGA Sports Academy Curriculum Overview: The PGA Sports Academy will help youth learn to play golf and have fun in the process. The PGA Sports Academy has three levels: Player, Sport and Champion. Player Level Objectives • Develop an understanding of the sport of golf; • Learn fundamental movement and motor skills and link them together into the golf swing; • Use ball-striking games such as baseball and hockey to develop hand-eye coordination; • Establish essential safety and etiquette.
