With the latest announcement that THP & GolfTEC have formed a unique partnership to assist golfers everywhere in taking their golf game to the next level, we decided that it would be a great idea to show off a little bit about what GolfTEC and their improvement centers are bringing to the table. We truly feel as though you are in great hands and could not be more excited about what THP will be bringing to our readers throughout 2011.

hmm, i always knew that golftec was huge but those statistics are staggering! that’s a lot of clients and an incredible success rate over the course of one year.
i wish i lived near a golftec, i would gladly take lessons at one.
I have been going back and forth with the idea of taking lessons from GolfTEC. It seems cool, but swinging indoors has never been my thing. It seems that the THP members have had good success there though. THere is one here in Philly that I might have to try out.
95% success rate is amazing to say the least. I think a call to the Knoxville GolfTec is in order.
We have a GolfTEC here in Sioux Falls too, I’ll be hitting it up this winter as they do “driving range” sessions as well. Thanks for the video, I think I’m going to look for some help from them as I look to take my game to another level next season.
I’ve been taking lessons at GolfTEC since September and I’ve basically rebuilt my swing from the ground up. If you have the opportunity and the money, it is well worth it if you’re serious. Just make sure you practice in between lessons. I’ve gotten so much more consistent results that it really is unbelievable.
How do they define “success?” Is success the ability to hit down on irns? Is success the ability to create a fade or a push? Is success a drop of five strokes in score? Ten? Fifteen?
For this statistic to be worthwhile, it has to be contextual.
Having said that, I’ve been taking lessons at golfTec since February and I love them. I now understand the mechanics of a golf swing and what I need to do to improve. And I love video practice.
However, the 95% success rate seems like a lot of smoke-blowing.
We wanted to jump on the forum for a minute to answer your question! We are excited to be a part of THP and thanks to for all the comments.
Success results are based on internal research from our client population and independent studies conducted by the National Golf Foundation. They reflect both swing improvement and on course performance.
According to the 2010 survey, GolfTEC clients dropped their average score per round 6 strokes and decreased their putts per round by 3.
That’s a great question and we promise, it’s not just a lot of smoke! Thanks for choosing GolfTEC!
I wish there was a Golftec closer to me, I would be taking advantage of it for sure. I think the closest is Omaha, about 2 1/2 hours in the other direction from my usual travels. A 6 stroke drop in my game would be huge to me.
I took lessons at GolfTec last year. My setup, take away and swing were completely rebuilt. Very effective system. Had my all time low round this year, 75, broke 80 3 additional times, average score in 2010 is 91.
Very happy student here.
Is there a special rate for THP ?
I have looked at Golftec myself, costly but if that effective im sure the people that have used it would say well worth the money.
guess not
Mike,
We will be doing some special things with GolfTEC & the THP Forum. It will be exclusive to the THP Forum Members and we have some very cool things going on right now with them.
Do golfTEC instructors teach a certain method?
@ Mike- THP Administrator is right! We will be doing special offers and promotions for THP members.
@compression board Alf- GolfTEC Certified Personal Coaches all use GolfTEC’s patented teaching technology and video motion measurement system. However, they are also able to customize each lesson to the player’s ability and goals. Many GolfTEC Coaches also have additional PGA and TPI certifications.
