Barbara Ames Mixed Knockout 

Congratulations to Ron and Julie Ricketts for winning the Barbara Ames Mixed Knockout beating the President Dave Lee and Lady President Gwyneth Holt in the final. Ron urged me to put this in my newsletter as this was the first time he has managed to get his name on a board since he joined the club.


 

Sunday was the second round of the winter league, the Vice Captain and I took on Nigel Pugh and Chris Edwards. 

Following a very tight front nine Chris and Nigel managed to win the 12th and 13th to go two up. The Vice Captain managed to win the 14th and I won the 16th to get it back to all square. Both Nigel and Chris had shots on the last two holes which unfortunately for us proved too many. 

Next week we are looking forward to taking on Mike and Pete Davies.

How did Kate change her swing? 

Kate has been working hard on her swing over the past few months. Her main fault is a tendency to hit the ground before the ball or hit thin shots. After an initial observation we discovered through the use of the K-Vest that Kate was not turning her hips enough in the downswing which was leading to an early release of the club and the bad strikes. 

As you can see from the K-Vest data, before any changes, Kate had only turned her hips 24 degrees by impact. After using K-Vest's Dynamic Visual Training, Kate was able to rotate her hips by an extra fifteen degrees by impact. 

 

   

The 'after' picture shows how Kate is now able to strike the ball with more of a descending blow, avoiding both hitting the ground before the ball and thin shots.
