As I start this journey of a year-long Swing to Success, I first wanted to record my current distances for each club as a way to measure my progress. A couple of my goals are consistent ball striking & gaining distance. So this is where I’m starting from & I anticipate seeing improvement with all this data a year from now (as well as along the way). We used Erik’s Trackman (professional launch monitor) to gather data on each club in my bag. I hit each one three times & each club is represented by a different colored dot & all three are circled in a white circle. I loved seeing the data in comparison all in one place. Very telling & good to see where I’m starting. It wasn’t surprising to me that my shorter clubs showed up with more consistent distances as well as expected gaps between each club of about 10 yards. But my longer clubs were much more erratic & in some cases shorter distances than other shorter clubs. I know that will all change as I improve my technique with ball striking. Can’t wait to share this journey with all of you!

Here you go friends and golfers. You can diagnose any shot you hit by understanding the relationship between club face angle and club path. Let me know what questions you may have.

I have received some piecemeal help from Erik as I started learning to play golf over the past 4 years but haven’t taken full advantage of being married to a top golf coach. I always found excuses of being too busy. I thought I was starting to play better in the 9-hole rounds I play with in the Scottsdale Golf League for Women. Technically I have but after playing at a few different courses over the past couple of months & seeing how much I struggled when I am unfamiliar with a course made me realize that I need to make time to practice 15 minutes a day & take a lesson with Erik once a week. My goals include: - Consistently striking the ball with my wedges, irons & driver as well as improve my control - Gaining speed & distance with all my clubs, especially my driver - Improving my putting - Lowering my score Right now I typically don’t even keep score because I typically end up with many triple bogeys or higher. I hope you follow along & interact with our posts so you benefit, too! I’m excited to get going!
