What makes the difference?
Have you ever wondered what makes the difference in two golfers of similiar builds and athleticism. Why one player reaches the PGA or LPGA tour and the other can't make their high school golf team.

The difference is not in the lack of ability of one player, but it lies in their knowledge and training.

And that is what the Kip Southland Golf Academy does. We provide you with the knowledge and all the tools necessary to create the highest quality of practice so you can reach your full potential.

Here is what reasearch shows.
It takes 8 - 12 years of training to reach the elite level of any sport.
That a high quality of practice is far more valuable than a high quanity of practice.
And that video modeling significantly increases the rate of improvement.

What is the Swing Model?
The Swing Model is based on 20 years of research filming hundreds of the best PGA, LPGA and Champions tour players in the world. It has identified the best characteristics of this group of talented players, focusing on the strengths and eliminating the weaknesses. The end result is a golf swing that combines the best movements of the best players in golf producing the best combination of power and accuracy.

How do we use the Swing Model?
We begin by inputting your data into the computer to build a model to your exact body size. Your swing is videotapped and your model is then overlaid directly on top of that swing. I can now play back your swing and the model frame by frame or from one teaching position to another so you can immediately see your strengths and what needs to improve. The goal now is to match your model, performing at tour level, throughout the swing.

                                                         The initial swing                                                             After a little practice, he matches his model much better

You have access to every lesson 24/7
Every lesson is stored on the SwingModel.com website. All lessons include your model superimposed on your swing. You can control the video, playing the entire swing, jumping to teaching positions or stepping frame by frame. You can compare the swings of any lesson to those of any other lesson charting your progress every step of the way.

Once your a student you can use your model for a practice session
Practice mode allows you to practice with your model, independently. You simply select the model position you want to work on, then make a swing. The program will automatically stop recording and replay your swing, slowing down as the selected position is reached. You can do this over and over, each time viewing the screen checking your improvement.
