Golf Lesson Evaluations

Improving your golf game for most Golfers is both difficult and challenging. Most people who take traditional golf lessons do not improve. Almost all golfers slice their woods and pull their irons. Why? The main reason for this is the basic teaching methods that have been used are simply mis-leading and in a word "wrong".. The fact is the average handicap has not gone down in 50 years and this is with the advancement in golf balls and club design. 

We believe there are 3 golf swing fundamentals and they are not Grip, Alignment, Stance & Posture. There is not a uniformity in the way the best players in the world do any of the above. The best players in the world exhibit these 3 fundamentals:  

They hit the ground in the same spot every time and forward of the ball

They have enough power to play the game 

They have predictable ball flight

The Golf Academy/LA uses a revolutionary systematic approach to golf instruction emphasizing the correct identification of swing faults. We address how to fix them so we can achieve the fundamentals stated above. In our initial Full Swing Evaluation/Lesson we explain the NEW ball flight laws which is necessary for you to understand why the ball flies where it does. We explain your golf swing issues, what needs to be done to fix them, and explain the geometry and physics of the golf swing, The golf swing system we teach will avoid and prevent injuries and improve your performance on the course. This translates to lower scores. 

We believe that most competing golf swing evaluations or golf lesson plans do not adequately address the complexity of the human body performing a golf swing or the geometry involved. The Golf Academy/LA has spent years of study and analysis to create a program that really improves a golfer’s performance and development. We have spared no expense to offer the latest in state-of-the-art golf swing, golf specific fitness, mental golf style and putting stroke analysis technology. This Golf Swing Technology can capture both full body and club movement in ways we once never thought possible which allows us to speed up the entire learning curve.

With this Technology we are able to develop a program and action plan individually tailored based on your game and your golfing goals. The evaluation/lesson includes: history taking, basic technique evaluation, and if necessary golf specific physical conditioning evaluation; report of the findings; prescriptions and drills for swing and game improvement and a golf specific fitness program. We consider your current ability, age, flexibility, physical condition, golfing goals and time commitment to design a personalized golf swing program for you. 

This detailed game plan and road map to success also includes personalized practice drills and strategies for improvement. The evaluations we perform and the Golf Lesson Programs we have developed are similar to those used by most of the top professionals and amateurs throughout the world. We have a wide variety of Golf Lesson Programs to suit your budget and goals.

SAM Putt Lab Evaluation and Lesson: $100

The Science and Motion (SAM) Putt Lab putting analysis and training system uses ultrasound sensory analysis technology to capture your key putting stroke parameters. It analyzes the 28 most important parameters of your putting stroke and displays the results in an easy to understand comprehensive report. We can discover your individual strengths and weaknesses for an improved and more efficient putting stroke. Or, we can utilize the SAM Putt Lab as a putter fitting system to identify improvements in stroke and roll as you attempt to find the right putter for you. The Putt Lab analysis reveals even the smallest details of your movements and allows you to develop improvements and training strategies as well as properly select the putter that is best for your game. The Sam Putt Lab Performance Screen lasts approximately 1 hour.

TGA Short Game Evaluation and Screen: $100

The key to scoring in Golf is the short game. Tour players get it up and in 70 to 80 % of the time. (Up and in means in the hole in 2 or less strokes).Most Tour Players spend 60% of their practice time working on short game & putting. The art of turning a bogey into a par is old hat with most touring professionals. We not only provide V1 video analysis with Tour Player comparison, but we also use our K-Vest and Sam Balance Lab Weight Force Plates to get you on-track quickly.

Equipment Assessment and Fitting: $150

We use advanced golf industry technology to do an assessment of your current equipment to determine if your equipment is properly fit for you or not. We check your irons and woods for length, lie angle, shaft frequency, shaft type, head design, grip size and more. We analyze your swing data with our V1 digital video analysis and our FlightScope Doppler Radar Launch Monitor (The most sophisticated and accurate Launch Monitor System available) to determine if your equipment matches your swing and physique. A new set of clubs will not cure all of your golfing problems, but a custom set will definitely make your game better. Contrary to popular belief most premium clubs can be custom fit to match a player’s swing at a similar price to an “off the Rack” set. Many times changes can be made to your existing set to get you the right fit. Our goal isn’t to make a club sale, it’s to get you playing better and to make sure your clubs fit you. We also work on club-gapping to put together the most efficient set combination for your game.

Golf Specific Fitness TPI Assessment Screen: $150

Our Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) assessment screen is given by one of our certified TPI coaches. The assessment determines what if any physical limitations exist and how they are affecting your golf swing. The information we gathered in your K-VEST & Weight Right Force Plate evaluations is also used for your TPI evaluation. The K-VEST gives us 3-dimensional images of your swing via the sensors, and countless pieces of valuable data portrayed graphically. It measures shoulder and hip rotation and alignment at address, top and impact; k-factor, the separation between your shoulders and hips; kinetic chain, what’s moving in what order, and how fast; hip stability; core stability; spine angle and much, much more. This allows us to more accurately assess movement and helps us to uncover potential swing faults caused by physical limitations. Coupled with our TPI physical screening this is can’t miss technology. We will pinpoint what physical element is causing a certain swing fault-whether it is mobility, stability or coordination, and then we will design the most efficient program that will help you reach your goals in the fastest manner. We assess your strength, flexibility and balance. Any physical limitations you have will affect the efficiency of your golf swing. You’ve seen what Annika and Tiger (and many others) have done to improve their game through effective golf conditioning. Now you can be put on a program that will address your current physical issues that are impacting your ability to hit it consistently long and straight. We can design a program to fit your needs and your budget.
