My golf game had gotten so bad, I couldn't even hit a driver in the air off the tee box or a fairway wood in the air off the grass. It got so bad that I was ready to quit playing the game. I told myself I either need to get some help or quit. I finally decided I would try getting some help because I really do love the game.
One day I was at the Roger Dunn Golf Shop in Indio and saw they have Golftec inside their shop. I talked candidly with one of their instructors and told him of my frustrations in golf. I scheduled an evaluation with Kelly Manos, who is a Certified Personal Coach for Golftec.
During my evaluation, Kelly strapped a harness apparatus on me and calibrated the cameras. He had me hit a few balls, capturing my swing on the cameras. Kelly saw my swing problem immediately! We watched my swings on the large TV screens in slow motion and in real time motion. It was so obvious what I was doing wrong, but I couldn't tell until I saw the video. Kelly showed me how to start correcting my problem and by the end of the evaluation, had me hitting the ball better than I had hit it for years. In that one evaluation, I went from hitting a MAJOR SLICE to hitting it straight and with an occasional slight draw!
I was so enamored, I bought a series of ten lesson including practice times, where I could use the cameras to watch each swing.
When I signed up with Kelly, my handicap index was 24.4. After my lessons, my handicap index has dropped to a 17.1. Better yet, I have regained my confidence in the game of golf! I now hit my driver off the tee with a slight draw and long and my fairway woods high and straight.
I highly recommend to any golfer out there, whether a high handicapper or a low handicapper, to at least get a swing evaluation from Golftec and encourage getting a series of lessons too.
Kelly Manos is a very professional instructor with a positive
attitude who desires you as a golfer to greatly improve your game.
If my game starts to slip again, I'm going back to Golftec to see Kelly! read more
