Good Scores for San Diego's Golf Economy

Viva La Golf! Golf is alive and well in San Diego despite trying times according to the Union Tribune this morning (click the below link to read the full article). It makes me think about why we won't give up on golf but are willing to live without that fancy dinner out or a new pair of shoes. Golf gives us peace, at least for most of us. It allows us to commune with nature, hang out with friends, and yet be challenged beyond what our brain's fairway can handle. It is our time away to focus on something other than work, bills, and family life. Plus, you can never run out of things to work on in your golf game, so you are rarely bored and often surprised. So get out there this weekend and take advantage of all of the great golf deals out there. HHhhmm, Maderas sounds fun!

Fit at the Tee at San Diego Golf Fest 2010

What a fun few days! Zach, Kevin, Adam and I had the pleasure of spending the weekend meeting hundreds of passionate golfers and puting them through a 3D Motion Analysis. One thing I continue to find so interesting is how differently people swing, yet achieve the same results. It reminds me that even among the pros, their swings vary so greatly, but all have the same sequence with their pelvis, thorax and hands. We had a great time watching some interesting swings and then seeing how efficient they were in 3D. When given the opportunity, we did some physical screens on golfers and found that the most glaring problem among those golfers was the inability to touch their toes. Not being able to touch your toes could be indicative of hamstring inflexibility and lack of hip or low back flexion leading to early extension, loss of posture and many other potential swing killers. In our next blog we will show you how to touch your toes in minutes, even if you haven't done so in years!
