Golf Seminars a Major Success

Head Golf Professional, Mike Krick, held two golf seminars in January. The first golf seminar, Psychology of Playing, included topics on seven elements of confidence, inner coaching, goal setting, and evaluating a golf shot. The second golf seminar, Taking apart the Golf Swing, included topics on pre-swing principles, eight key positions, and ball flight laws. Krick summarizes the two seminars: The first golf seminar involved exploring mental advantage, and understanding how the mind works. We covered the conscience and subconscious thoughts and the power of the word “don’t”. The equation for success, what to see in a golf shot and the seven elements of confidence provided some great insight in saving shots on the golf course. The last part of the class was to set goals. We cover each of the important steps in goal setting and how to stick to them. The second golf seminar involved taking apart the golf swing. We covered ball flight laws, pre swing principles and each critical position of the golf swing. The class was shown how to blend together each of these positions. We addressed the one and two-plane golf swings and described the major differences in each one. Lastly, we discussed how tempo, rhythm and timing played a major role in striking the ball solid. If you missed these seminars, Mike Krick has notes to review. The success of these classes has led to planning more seminars in the future.
