Greetings, it is with a heavy heart that I do this newsletter- my mom passed away on Monday after battling illness in the hospital for the last two months. She was a wonderful woman who always found pleasure in everything she did...she will be greatly missed.
  
As you can see to the left, there is a special for the month of November where for every series (three hours) you purchase of lessons, you receive a free half hour lesson.
  
I was fortunate to be recently named to Golf Digest's 2013-14 top instructors in California. I appreciate all your support in making this possible.
  
  
In the rest of the newsletter, you will see the following features:
  

*Video Tip on where the club and arms should go on the backswing.

*Video of  - Ryan Moore 2013 CIMB Classic Champion.
*Honor Roll Students- .
*Upcoming dates for Play with the Pro and Short Game School.
                 On Plane Backswing
Golf backswing simplified
This video was done to (hopefully) simplify and give you a better visual as to where the club and arms should go in the backswing. As you will see in the video, a backswing that is on plane is roughly on a 45 degree angle.  
 

PGA Tour Player Swing of the Month

2013 CIMB Classic Champion

Ryan Moore

In 2007, Ryan Moore (picture on the left) was struggling with a hand injury and found a very unique way to swing the club- he aimed quite a bit to the left and set his wrists before starting the club back. I have never seen anyone do this before and would not recommend it for the average golfer as it tends to create a swing that is too steep and out to in. Even in 2012 (picture on the right) with out the injury, he takes the club outside and steep, but finds a way to return the club correctly back to the ball. (Apologize about the audio quality...am looking for a better microphone to improve it).

Honor Roll Students

  • Patrick Nguyen- Patrick shot his career low of 90 at Torrey Pines North.
  • Scott Mora- Scott made his first ever eagle, holing out his second shot on a par four.

 

If you have had a great round or accomplishment in golf, please share it with me so that I may put it in the next newsletter.
