This video will help you develop good leg work in your swing.
 | | Leg & Footwork with Scott Mahlberg |
There are three benefits to having proper leg work. The first is that it helps in delivering the club to the ball consistently on the downswing. The second is that it helps maintain good balance during the swing. The third is that it helps create good timing in the swing. View the video above for an explanation of good leg work. |
It is Masters Week!!!
This year's Masters tournament comes with a lot of anticipation. There are so many story lines on the PGA Tour this year. There is Kyle Stanley losing the Farmer's Insurance Open and coming back to win a week later. There is Phil Mickelson's final round at Pebble Beach cementing a win in going head to head with Tiger. Rory McIlroy showed great form in winning the Honda Classic. Finally, there is Tiger Woods showing that he is not finished after winning Arnie's tournament at Bay Hill. This year's tournament should be extremely competitive and dramatic. Even though there are a lot of great players in the field, I am picking Rory. I think he has some unfinished business from last year.

Student of the Month: Joe Bonin
Joe started with a 13 index. Through hard work and dedication he has lowered his index to a 7. He feels like he is playing the best golf of his life since this is the lowest his index has ever been. Nice job Joe!!!
