Inside a Real Lesson: Getting a 70-Year-Old Moving Again

by Martin Chuck

 

I keep the camera rolling at the academy, and every so often I catch something worth sharing.

My student is 70. Good player. But he'd talked himself into believing his body couldn't move like it used to.

I don't buy that. So I reached for a Smart Ball.

It keeps the arms connected so the body has to do its job. Watch his face about the third swing in. That's the moment I teach for.

That's why I built it. Not in a lab. Right here on the lesson tee, watching real golfers feel what I was teaching.

Want to feel it too?

Improve Your Delivery and Impact with the Payne Stewart Drill

  Most golfers who come to the Tour Striker Golf Academy fight the same thing... The club comes over the top, and good shots turn into bad ones... Let me show you the Payne Stewart drill.  He used a simple alignment rod but I'll show you how I do it using the Tour Striker Toolbox  (which you can use on range mats, too.). If you can't seem to achieve the "inside out" swing we all want... And especially if you struggle with an "over the top" move... This drill will quickly teach you how to get the club onto the ball the right way and in a reliable way.

Lots of Ways the Pros (and You) Can Use the Smart Ball

  Why does everyone love the Smart Ball?  Because everyone plays better when they remember to keep structure in their arms on full swings and short game shots. And that's exactly what the patented Tour Striker Smart Ball does: It keeps your arms from breaking down, so they remain structured, "connected" and working in unison with your lower body. This helps you strike the ball LONGER, STRAIGHTER and more CONSISTENTLY. By maintaining the structure of your swing and removing the "randomness" that happens when you bend your elbows... You gain RELIABLE control over where, when and how you contact the ball and the turf. People love it, too, because it's so versatile —  everyone can use it their own way, including inventing NEW ways to use it. As I'll show you in the above video... The traditional way is to position it between your forearms...but that's where the "tradition" ends. Some people try to keep the ball in place during the entire swing. Others let it "drop" during the downswing. Still others deflate it a bit and use it just above the writs. And lately I've seen the lanyard tucked into the waistband to keep short-game swings from getting too long. I know I'm biased, but given all the ways the Smart Ball can help you improve... This has to be one of the biggest bangs for the buck in golf! So, if you haven't tried the Smart Ball yet... Get yours here.

You're not prepared for the shot

  Here's what I tell students who say they can't get through the shot. You can't get through it because you're not prepared for it. If the face is open coming down, hanging back isn't a flaw. It's your only option. You're buying time to square it up. So fix the face first. Get the lead wrist bent back and the face working down, and the club arrives strong. Now the pivot pays you back. Watch the POV again and look at the logo. If you can read it coming into the ball, the face is wide open. If you can't, you're in business. The Tour Striker Educator is what makes it obvious. Feedback you can feel instead of guess at. Get your Tour Striker Educator here
