Learn to lean forward
The most common thing that causes poor contact in shots around the green is the hands and wrists trying to scoop the ball in the air. The scooping action results in punishing shots that are bladed over the green or hit fat and fall short of the target. The scooping action of your hands and wrists causes the shaft of the club to lean away from the target at impact. This backward leaning shaft creates a thicker sole (bounce) which makes it difficult to hit the ball solidly.
If you want to strike the ball solidly you must replace your scoop with a technique that creates a forward leaning shaft at impact.The most effective training aid for preventing your scoop and creating forward shaft lean is The Punisher. First grip your chipping club normally; grip a second club underneath the first one down close to the hosel or clubhead. The second grip should now be sticking out under your left armpit. Try keeping the second shaft away from your left side as you swing through. During the chipping motion, if you are a scooper the extended part of the club will punish you by bumping into your side. Instant feedback! Be careful not to take too long of a swing. After eliminating the scoop you will eliminate the punishing fat and thin shots from your short game.

What's happening at EOGA
Give your junior's weekend a golfing kickstart!
During the school holidays, André organised a 2-day Junior Academy bootcamp.
Each day started off by improving technique and doing some skill training, and ended on the course playing with their new friends.
EOGA is having another 1-day Junior Academy bootcamp this Friday, the 5th April. The juniors will play a few holes.
Get in contact to book your junior's spot.

Stronger core = better golf
This Wednesday, EOGA will be hosting its first ever pilates class with instructor Amelda.
Pilates is a wonderful form of exercise that will strengthen your body in all the right places. Good core strength is essential for good golf!
It’s happening at the Arabella gym. There are only 6 spots, so booking is essential with André.
EOGA coach André is running a promotion for this week. As this is the last week before the hollowtining begins, André is running a special on ‘on-course session’.
Only R600/hour with our fantastic coach! The focus of the session is on mindset, course management and getting the ball in the hole.
Contact Andre now to book your on-course session.

Reinold du Randt's scorecard |
Reinold du Randt played a lovely 79 over the week end at Arabella from a 12 handicap. This happened the day after André worked with him on better mental technique that he tried on the course that day. Congratulations!
2 of our EOGA clients – Sello and Kenielwe Moloko – won at Killarney Golf Club in Johannesburg. It was a corporate golf club day and with the betterball format, they scored 53 points. Their hard work in the gym and on the range definitely paid off!! Well played!
