Hi all.
Started the program in Apr 2011 so now on my tenth month.
Thanks to being a part of the EGA program my average score has improved dramatically.
Season 2011
Average score first 10 rounds 93,3
Average score last 10 rounds 89,3
Average score last 5 rounds 85,6
That's an improvement of 7.7 shots average. I am now down to HCP
10,8 and all of a sudden I am thinking single digit HCP are in reach.
(Lowest Score of the year 81)
What has helped me most is the improvement in the takeaway with irons,
and with the use of chipping ratio I have dropped number of putts each round.
In September I had 27 putts for 18 holes.
What I find myself doing and (and what has worked for me) is to go back to the lessons, skills & drills to work on a certain part even though it could be one of the first lessons of the program. Watch and then practice, and watch and then practice again.
Thanks for a great program.

Today I went to my golf club and used for the first time your techniques on the repeatable swing DVD. I was very pleased with many of the results particularly the arms away from the body and keeping my right shoulder back while allowing my arms to let gravity work along with the back of the left hand squaring the club up for maximum contact.
The practice on my golf mat with mirror in the basement (12 foot high ceiling) was indispensable and allowed me to break down each part of the DVD without the use of a ball. I then went to the club driving range to sense the feeling by hitting balls and looking at the results.
THANK YOU AGAIN for helping me to finally find a total swing that I have total confidence in. I played several competitive sports and practiced hard at achieving a high degree of skill but none of them although challenging, could ever match the difficulty of golf. That is the reason why we need very capable golf teachers like yourself. We need enjoyable experiences more than ever in our society now and please continue to fulfill our needs.

I had a lesson yesterday with the pro here at the Blue Canyon Country Club in Phuket which I am a member. I have been shanking the chip shot these last few months and before, this was my best shot. We spent about an hour trying to find a fix, even playing right handed (I am a lefty), which I did quite well after about 10 minutes. I wasn't really satisfied with the option so I went looking through your email lessons and found the one with the lob shot, opening up the face and then dropping the hands. I went back to the lesson location today and used your hand drop method and now my shot has returned to its previous glory. I am sure the lesson helped a bit yesterday, standing too close to the ball and letting my wrists breakdown but I know a lot of it had to do with your suggestion of dropping the hands. Thank you and now I am back.

“I just wanted to call and thank you because I hadn’t played golf for a while. I went out and played, and I was absolutely awful. So I went and got your video How to Build a Repeating Swing. It’s the greatest video ever made.
After watching it once, my confidence rose even before swinging a club. I went in the back, practiced, couldn’t wait to get to the driving range. Went to the driving range, and was hitting like a beast. Took it out to the golf course. And this is after watching the video. Within two weeks I was in the golf course.
I shot bogey golf in the front nine, but I could tell I was just right there on the cusp. The back nine… 4 over… and I was driving like a madman and my short irons were great. The nine… pitching wedge… I hadn’t hit better. And it’s because of your video. It’s the greatest video ever made. Any golfer should take a look at it. Thank you again, Shawn.”

I purchased the LST (laser speed trainer) 2 weeks ago. It has really helped all aspects of my swing, from takeaway, plane, transition and especially my down swing into the ball. It has helped increase my swing speed as well. I would recommend it to everyone. It is a little expensive, but well worth it.

“I saw immediate results with your method and continued to practice and stick to what I saw in the article. Craving more information, I purchased your DVD and it took my game to the next level. Twelve months later my handicap is down to a solid 5 and I have shot even par three times.....
Your explanation of the takeaway in the DVD made a huge difference, kept me from rolling my arms and getting off plane. I wasted a lot of years doing it wrong, believe me....”

I started using the two-step approach even though I consider myself an experienced golfer. Breaking down the basics like you did in your book and DVD really helped me with my game at the end of the season. I seem to be hitting it longer and straighter (more times than not).
I have to tell you that I had subscribed to a few other golf instructors on the web, but after finding you and realizing that you are the same instructor who wrote the article in Golf magazine back in March 2007, I unsubscribed from all those other instructors and just look to you for your clear, concise, simplistic step by step guide.

Your Two Step Swing Video was great. You explained and taught well. Worked a couple days at home on your techniques, and played yesterday with my buddies, never hit the ball so solid and crisp. Thanks again, set up a golf room in my house, will work on your techniques throughout the winter.

“For whatever reason, I had never learned to "correctly" hinge my wrists up and down ---- plus at the top of swing --- how to correctly drop my hands straight down with minimum weight shift. For the first time, I have the club on the correct swing plane . I am 63 years old --- and I have never hit the ball better - or further.”

“I bought the "How to Build a Repeating Swing" DVD for myself. I was at about a 10.0 handicap, and feel that the video has helped me tremendously. Although I had managed to cut about 3 strokes or so this past summer with just some good hard discipline & practice, I thought I had bottomed out as far as progressing below a 10 handicap. With the way I'm swinging now, after some minor changes I learned in your DVD, I think I can do much better. If it wasn't for the cold, I think I'd already be at 9.0 and getting better. My changes were mostly with the backswing & transition (and subsequently my rhythm & tempo), as these were the weakest area of my game, and most noticeable in my mid & long irons. Any improvement here is going to reduce my handicap quickly. Your DVD was instrumental in this change.”

“Just got done reading Two Steps to a Perfect Golf Swing. I can't believe how this book has helped my golf game. I have been playing golf for thirty years and have never been lower than a 17 handicap player. This is going to change. I am excited about golf again! Just ordered the DVD, to help instruct my kids, so that don't end up struggling with confusing and bad information like I did. Thank you.”

“Just want to thank you again for your DVD. I went from shooting in the low 80s to shooting even par the last two times I have played. Your explanation of the takeaway in the DVD made a huge difference, kept me from rolling my arms and getting off plane. I wasted a lot of years doing it wrong, believe me. Also, the article in the Golf magazine showed keeping the weight on the insides of my feet. Took me a while to pick up on it, but it really simplified my swing. Thank you.”
