Focus Areas

A brief description of the areas we focus on during our coaching sessions. Each engagement is tailored to the requirements of the customer.

Swing Mechanics

Refining the fundamentals of your swing to create efficiency and consistency comes first and foremost.

Short Game

Often overlooked, improving your short game is the fastest way to lower scores. Everyone has an off day when you’re not swinging it your best, but if your short game is sharp, you can still shoot a decent score.

On-course Tuition

By far the best all-round training ground, on-course coaching simulates a round of golf but provides you with a coach to walk through each shot and situation with you. Learn to think your way around a golf course like a tour pro and shave shots off your score.

Launch Monitor Training

Understanding your swing characteristics and optimizing ball flight, strike and launch conditions as well as learning exactly how far you hit each club for accurate distance gapping.

Swing Speed Training

Learn how to train to improve club-head speed and distance through an understanding of the speed contributors in your swing and train to build strength in key areas.

Mental and Routine

The saying ‘80% of Golf is played between your ears’ could not be truer. Learn to see the game in the right frame of mind which will not only lower scores and make you more consistent, but help you enjoy the game more.

Improve your weaknesses, refine your strengths and shoot the lowest score possible.

Golf has many facets, scoring well is the sum of all its parts. A constant juggling act even for the best players in the world, at Element Golf Academy we focus on consistency with a well-rounded game.

Juniors

Gone are the days of lining children up on a driving range for an hour and trying to get them to swing like Tiger. Not only is that hugely detrimental to a child’s development, but they also find it tedious and can’t see the point which makes them non-committal and eventually they move on to other sports.

The Element Golf Academy Junior Programme is built on the tried and tested, globally recognised Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) structure which has been developed using 30+ years of scientific research. This specialised programme is incredibly detailed and maximizes athletic potential within a system that is sensitive to BOTH a golfer’s biological and developmental age.

We’re excited about your child’s potential and look forward to working with you and them to build a solid foundation and love for the game.
