Natural movement sequencing in the golf swing

We had some fun putting this video together. My helper (Morne) gave a few dodgy nervous throws when I was demonstrating the baseball hit. I made 2 contact hits out of 5 due to some dodgy pitching.
When watching, remember the last couple of videos where I was demonstrating the body movement and the hands and arms movement seperately. See how they come together naturally in this video. Click on the link below to see it.

Updated Results

Congratulations to Andrew Mackie (De Zalze), Ian Kennedy (Steenberg) and Dawie van Wyk (SW Golf Village) for jointly winning the Atlantic Beach Pro Am on Monday 15th August on a score of 2 under par, 70. I was 5 shots further back on 75. I think I am too old to compete on Mondays! The update of the Western Cape Order of Merit (OOM) is listed further on in the site.

 It is a demonstration of how to use the hands and arms to their full potential in the golf swing. Remember to move the body too as demonstrated in the video. My last video that I posted 2 weeks ago was specifically about the body movement. Check it out at

PGA workshop

It has been a busy week starting with 2 days of PGA seminars, workshops and AGM.  Some new stuff was learned on fitness for golf presented by Barry Bridges from Cape Town.  I am continuing to learn about the minefield of social media, this was presented by Ben van Rensberg. Ben can be found on his web site http://www.dreamgolfjob.com/   Jeff Clause shared his expertise as Director of Golf at St. Francis Links, on the importance of  PGA golf professionals having a crucial part to play in the running of golf clubs in South Africa in these modern times. He has brought a lot of wisdom and knowledge with him from his PGA background in Texas, USA. Jeff has been in SA now for 20 years and has worked at Fancourt and Pezula before St. Francis.  The last of the workshops I attended was Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) part 2. This is all about the 10 year growth cycle of kids into adulthood and the importance on how they learn and how they should train during this time. If managed well, the potential for a long term future in the sport they choose to speialise in. My thanks goes to PGA professional Martin Briede for presenting this.
