Philosophy

"First and foremost it is important for my clients to have fun and enjoy the game of golf. Whether it's teaching a beginner, a club golfer, an elite amateur or a tournament professional winner, I guide and caretaker them through their golfing journey. I always start at the point of impact and work backwards, until impact is understood golf can be frustrating and confusing, I believe in three golfing essentials: 1. A steady head 2. Balance 3. Rhythm I develop an individual plan for every client based on what the client predominantly wants to achieve and deliver a five step plan that looks similar to this: 1. Create a single predominant ball flight 2. Create a workable dispersion shot pattern. 3. Aiming classes focusing on dispersion shot pattern. 4. Chipping classes to a reasonable proximity of the hole to eliminate extra putt strokes. 5. Game management. When the client finishes their first lesson with me, I give them an evaluation on their game explaining why the ball goes where it does, so they have a greater understanding."

Favourite Swing

"Robert Rock's golf swing is based on these principles; simple, efficient, repeatable, centred and balanced. Robert lets the club swing away with a good combination of arm and body pivot at the top of the golf swing, this is where a lot of great golf swings stand out, he has a flat left wrist keeping the club face matched to his rotation of his body."

Top Tip

"Exactly what Robert demonstrates in his swing, at the top of your swing, make sure you have a flat left wrist and a square club face to match"
