I recently tried private lessons at Launch Golf Centre near Hwy 401
and 400. Although it is a far drive from where I live. I thought that
it was definitely worth it.
I got a half hour lesson from Matt Stallone who has been a CPGA
Director of golf for 8 years. He is only one of the instructors at
this Golf Centre but I am happy with my choice. He was very easy to
talk to and even though there was a video set up, he made me feel
comfortable so that I forgot I was being taped. I found the video
analysis very helpful because even though I could feel there were
things wrong with my swing, I was never able to see what I was doing
wrong until that point. He was able to slow down my swing at various
points, highlight the errors and point out what I was doing wrong.
(i.e. not cocking my wrists, lifting and bending my arms, not using my
hips and lower body.) They were all beginner mistakes but he explained
to me how and why those body parts affect and change my swing plane.
He was able to tell me exactly what I had to do to improve my swing
using analogies that made it easy for me to understand. I was able to
practise his concepts in front of 2 mirrors and also hit some golf
balls. After the lesson I was able to hit noticeably better
(straighter) with my 7 iron. I found his tips to be informative, easy
to follow and quick to grasp. And the best part was that I got to keep
a copy of the DVD of the entire lesson so that I can always replay it and
visualize my swing. I will definitely go back for more lessons.
