Why Stack and Tilt if You're Not Square?

Recently this teacher attended a "Stack and Tilt" seminar. While this relatively new swing philosophy is quite fascinating and puts in question many old teaching dogmas, it has, at its basis, the assumption of a square club face during all positions in the swing. How do you know if your club face is square? Obviously the flight of the ball will tell you the answer, but that's a little too late and can be very confusing to most amateur golfers.

Why not be sure if your club face is square by simply referring to a color index positioning on the shaft of a swing trainer? The "Stack and Tilt" swing, like most conventional methods recommends a slightly inward path on takeaway and downswing which creates an angular accumulation of force to maximize power. (much like a soccer style field goal kicker) But this doesn't work very effectively unless the club is square to the target line. The easiest way to work on achieving that..... the ClubFace Swing Trainer, of course!

ClubFace Visits the PGA Show in Orlando

Full of gadgets, giveaways and gobs of new clubs guaranteed to improve your game, the annual "Big Show" in Orlando was again a candy store chocked full of goodies for golfers. But how much money can you spend on "game improvement" clubs if you don't try to improve your game? All the big tour players are constantly trying to make their swings better, why doesn't the average golfer? Is it too complicated? Are they getting bad instruction, or no instruction at all?

Many teachers and golf club manufacturers realize it's time for golfers to take the game in their own hands and use one of the simplest, most effective swing trainers ever invented. Everyone who saw the ClubFace Swing Trainer was pleasantly surprised at it's colorful, user friendly design. And the prevailing theme at this year's show was "how can we make the game more fun, especially for beginners". After all, if we don't create more golfers and increase their frequency of play, how can we expand the game?

More Teaching Pros Find The CFST Very Useful!

The word is spreading amongst Southern California teaching professionals that the ClubFace Swing Trainer makes it much easier to show their students how to achieve a square club face position through impact. Randy Chang, 2010 SCPGA Teacher of the Year, at Talega Golf Club, now uses it both in classes and on an individual basis. Other prominent teachers in all five SCPGA chapters are finding it much easier to show their students whether or not they are squaring the club face during takeaway, at the top of the backswing and most importantly, at impact. The simple color coded box on the shaft reinforces the proper grip and club positions and gives the student something they can practice with on their own which aids the retention of this important concept for a longer period of time. And this, all the teachers agree, avoids many of the relapses that students experience between lessons, thereby speeding up their progress toward a more efficient and effective swing.

Will 15 Minutes With the ClubFace Trainer get you 15 More Yards?

We're sure you've heard a similar phrase before and this may sound like media hype, but many players and teaching pros have found it to be true. Start with Hunter Mahan having his best year ever with 2 wins and over $3.5 million in earnings after endorsing the ClubFace Swing Trainer. And if you haven't checked with your local teaching pro about the benefits of the CFST, you're missing out on the chance to pick up more than a few yards off the tee.

Want to turn that slice into a nice long draw, or that hook into a straight ball? Pick one up and spend just 15 minutes a day checking out your club head position. It's easy, simple and gives you immediate, effective feedback. What have you got to lose? Slices, lost balls in the rough, out of bounds or in water hazards? Start looking down the fairway. The ball rolls further on the short grass!

ClubFace Travels to Malaysia

Recently the ClubFace Swing Trainer traveled all the way to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with the California TV Team Golf's Grand Championship. The new swing trainer was a big hit with the locals who got to see it demonstrated first hand. It was also shown around at a golf industry trade show that happened to be in town. Many enthusiasts, especially teaching professionals and some golf academy operators were anxious to get their hands on the product for use in their schools.

The ClubFace Swing Trainer then traveled on to other parts of Asia to generate interest in this amazingly simple and effective golf training aid. It travels well and seems to be universally understood in any language with little or no explanation needed. After all, if you control the club face, you control the ball!

Testimonials Reveal Other Uses For The ClubFace Swing Trainer

Two students who have been employing the ClubFace Swing Trainer have remarked how it has improved their game and made them aware of the important feel of a square club head position. One NFL side judge has knocked an average of five shots off his scores and is about to break through into the 70's. Another real estate developer is finally conquering the chronic slice and turning it into a nice draw, adding distance and accuracy. But both have realized the CFST can be used for the short game as well. Keeping the yellow side in view on chips and pitches ensures a square club face with hands ahead at impact, crucial to solid contact on those critical stroke saving shots. Try it, you might be amazed! It might even have helped Hunter on the 17th hole of his Ryder Cup singles match, although the results were pretty much a foregone conclusion by then!

Captain Pavin's Pics add another So Cal Junior Golf Alumni!

Having announced that Rickie Fowler will join Tiger, Stewart Cink and Zach Johnson as the four captains picks for the upcoming Ryder Cup, Corey Pavin now has four So Cal Junior Golf alumni on the team! Tiger, Phil, Hunter and now Rickie, all honed their golf competitiveness on the SCPGA Junior Golf tournament calendar. It will be most interesting to see how Captain Pavin pairs up the 12 man squad to take on the Europeans at Celtic Manor. With five rookies on the team, both experience and past friendships, or rivalries, may need to be considered before the matches are made. To be sure, the US has a great variety of youth, experience and flair to bring to the battle. And a battle it will be against a strong Euro team on their home turf.

On another note, Hunter's scoring suffered somewhat in the last two rounds of the Deutsche Bank tournament. His opening 64 put him in good shape, but a closing 74 slid him down the score board to a tie for 33rd. He's still on to the next round of the playoffs at Cog Hill, but may need to get out the ClubFace Swing Trainer to square himself up for the tough test ahead. Only the top 30 make it to the grand finale at East Lake.
