Comparison Between Gilchrist And Huffman
Gilchrist and Huffman used an abundance of empirical data and research to create the foundation of their golf training plans. For example, by utilizing the concept of periodization which has been long-used in other Olympic sports, a neutral two-week performance cycle has been broken down into: 491 minutes allocated to your putter (20%)
230 minutes allocated to driver (9%)
210 minutes allocated to LW (8%)
210 minutes allocated to SW (8%)
210 minutes allocated to PW (8%)
130 minutes allocated to 9 iron (5%)
130 minutes allocated to 8 iron (5%)
130 minutes allocated to 7 iron (5%)
130 minutes allocated to 6 iron (5%)
130 minutes allocated to 5 iron (5%)
130 minutes allocated to 4 iron (5%)
130 minutes per club allocated to 3 iron - 3W (5% per …show more content…

Hopefully, you are catching on a bit now. As a reminder, you are reading information about a performance cycle, then, after this section, you will read details about phases throughout a performance cycle. For the first time in the game’s history, you are getting training information about performance cycles that has this much extended science, research, and experience behind it. So, enjoy the information that you like, and again, do not fixate on the few things, if any, that you don’t like. Focusing on the things you enjoy will allow you to get the most out of this book.
UNDERSTANDING THE WHOLE SITUATION
A key to constant success is being able to develop and grow with the changes in the game. Innovative thinking, innovative alternatives, and innovative training processes keep Gilchrist and Huffman at the forefront of golf. Lessons many years ago generally consisted of an instructor watching someone hit balls and giving suggestions about swinging in a different way. Today, with state-of-the-art launch monitors, video analysis, hands-on teaching, training aids, mirror work and drills, you can make changes much faster and much more …show more content…
Even 15 years ago pins were hardly ever placed three paces from the edge of a green on the PGA Tour—maybe two or three times, at most, throughout the tournament. Now, pins are placed three paces from the edge three or four times a day. This has led to an increased demand on precision for shaping shots. For example, if the only shot that a player has is a draw, it is virtually impossible to get close to a pin that is on the right side of the green guarded by a bunker on the right. With a draw, the closest a player can get to the pin is by landing it just over the bunker and having it release left (because of the hook spin) to the middle of the green. With that same pin position, a player who can also play a fade, can land the ball near the middle and have it release to the right and get near the hole. This ability to work the ball leads to maybe three extra birdie chances per
