Athletic Advisory
About
I have played and loved golf for over 35 years. Fortunate to have learned from two of the best golfers of all time: 1) Chandler Harper : John Chandler Harper was an American professional golfer, best known for winning the PGA Championship in 1950. He won seven times on the PGA Tour and played in the Ryder Cup in 1955. 2) Sam Snead : Samuel Jackson Snead was an American professional golfer who was one of the top players in the world for most of four decades. Snead won a record 82 PGA Tour events, including seven majors.
I approach all golfers with a simple process, golf is hard enough and too much info gets in the way of the important part, the person developing kinesthetic (body) awareness during the swing. Most just want to be able to play and enjoy a casual round. If you are wanting to be a competitive golfer, I'm not for you.
