"Players will tend to rely on certain skill sets more than others. Making sure you are hitting into areas of your game where you are the strongest at is vital. Nearer the whole is not necessarily better. Knowing your average proximity to the hole with each club and with specific distances will enable you to plan the way you play the game more effectively." Nicky Lumb.
Dr Nicky Lumb specializes in golf practice, skill development, and performance enhancement. She helps golfers of all abilities including elite amateurs and tour professionals to fulfill their potential on the golf course whilst they are competing. Nicky is also an international speaker and recently presented some of her Ph.D. research into golf practice and performance at the World Scientific Congress of Golf in Canada.
