TPI Client Swing Assessment
Example of a Client Swing Assessment
This is an example of a lesson which was performed on a 'member' at Pitlochry GCÂ He was first given an 11 point screening before having his golf swing assessed both Face-on and Down-The-Line using c-Swing computer analysis.
 Â
  1. Pelvic TiltÂ
  2. Pelvic RotationÂ
  3. Torso RotationÂ
  4. Overhead Deep SquatÂ
  5. Toe TouchÂ
  6. 90/90Â
  7. Single Leg BalanceÂ
 8. Lat LengthÂ
  9. Lower Quarter RotationÂ
10. Seated Trunk RotationÂ
11. Bridge with Leg ExtensionÂ
 Â
From the screen it was clear that this person had several limitations and from doing a computer swing analysis these showed up in his golf swing.Â
 Â
LimitationsÂ
1. Pelvic tilt movement was very limited PostureÂ
2. Could not get near to a Toe Touch PostureÂ
3. Over Head Deep Squat Maintaining Posture / Early Hip ExtensionÂ
4. Unstable Hip Rotation SwayÂ
 Â
If you look at his golf swing you can see the following:Â
 Â
Face On  ( see pictures below )Â
1. Knees were too fart apart at address ( red squares )Â
2. Notice the sway to the right ( red lines )Â
3. Notice head movement upwards ( red line )Â
Down the Line  ( see pictures below )Â
1. General Posture could be betterÂ
2. Shoulders open / Feet closedÂ
3. Backswing is steepÂ
4. Out to in swing pathÂ
5. Early extension of the hips ( away from white line which was against backside )Â
 Â
 Â
The golfer was given exercises to do at home to help improve his limitations.Â
( print out explanations were given to the golfer )Â
 Â
1. Pelvic Tilts in Golf Posture with bar or golf clubÂ
2. Pelvic Tilts supineÂ
3. Leg OversÂ
4. Early Extension practise drill To be done at driving rangeÂ
 Â
The golfer was also given a couple of things to work on in his swing from this initial lessonÂ
 Â
1. Press knees slightly in to one another at address i.e ball between kneesÂ
2. To flatten out backswing keeping clubhead lower to the ground during take away.Â
 Â
 Â
If the golfer does his exercises at home as well working on his swing in combination with taking a regular lesson he will improve his play.Â
 Â
Before the screening and analysis the golfer either hooked or blocked his shots which could be struck fat with the occasional thinned shot.Â
