Nov 29, 2018

In our “Lesson of the Day” video series with V1 Sports, we match a different GolfWRX member with a different V1 Sports instructor each day. It’s extremely important to both V1 Sports and GolfWRX to help golfers improve their games and shoot lower scores, and there’s no better way to do that than getting lessons. While we not only want to provide free lessons to select GolfWRX members, we want to encourage and inspire golfers to seek professional instruction. For instructions on how to submit your own video for a chance at getting a free lesson from a V1 Sports instructor as part of our Lesson of the Day series, CLICK HERE.

In today’s video Richard Hughes teaches GolfWRX Member Michael Calcagni how to improve his takeaway to get his arms and body more linked up, which leads to better rotation and a better position at impact.

Hughes is a Fellow of the PGA and coaches players of all abilities, raw novices, improvers, low handicap players and Professional players. Based at the Golf Centre in the UK, Richard has built a renowned coaching reputation and is a specialist in teaching with cutting edge technology to include launch monitors, pressure plates and 3D motion capture. Richard delivers coach education seminars around the world to other PGA Professionals. His seminar is called Teaching with Technology.
