How do clients learn indoors?
GolfTEC focuses on the cause, not the effect. By focusing on the client's body motion, GolfTEC builds a consistent golf swing that is more efficient, easier to repeat, and ingrained in the student's muscle memory. Outdoors, when the student's focus is only on the ball flight, they build in compensatory moves that will complicate their swing. Many amateurs have built swings that have multiple compensatory moves and as a result are inconsistent. We focus on the cause of a poor shot and not the effect. Our coaches know the results of a swing, we want our students focused on the cause.
