Nicolas D'INCAU Handicap +2 (Switzerland) During the Winter 2008/9 I spent 5 weeks in Australia. The training was intensive and was really good. The facilities were great, and the physical sessions tough but fun - it was great preparation for the 2009 season."   Ken BENZ Handicap +3 (Switzerland) "The individual mental, tournament and practising management training have helped me a lot and showed me how to motivate myself. Technically I made very good progress in the swing and have good confidence. Mentally I feel strong enough to succeed in important international tournaments."   Jessica JI LET Playing Professional (Korea) "It's great to learn how to practise productively. I'm learning how to play the whole game!"   Viva SCHLASBERG Professional, SAS Masters Tour (Sweden) “Elite Coaching is great because you work on all aspects of your game. They focus on elite performance and my confidence and self belief is growing every month. I feel my game is much more balanced, and feel that I’m going in the right direction in order to achieve my goals. Very few academies focus only on elite players, and I feel this is a great advantage as the students compete and learn off each other.”   Marcel ENGELHARDT Professional, EPD Tour (Germany) “I feel that now I’m really on the road to achieving my long term goals in professional golf. Before I was trying hard and hoping that I could get there, but now I feel confident , motivated and empowered. I loved the integrated approach of all aspects of the game, and especially the linking of the physiology with my swing faults. It’s great being with a group of like minded players, and I loved the constant competition between the students. I can’t wait to go back next year.”   Oliver GILMARTIN Handicap 0 (USA) “I have been with the Academy for 3 years. Every year I have made big improvements with my technique, mental and management game and my physical condition, and with my results in tournaments. I'm confident that I'll reach my goals and achieve my golfing dreams with the Elite Coaching Golf Academy.”   Wolfgang PISTONIK Professional (Austria) “I benefited greatly from all parts of the program – swing, short game, mental and the physical training. The new drills helped me feel the new feeling of the club on the ball, and I must continue to work on it when I’m back in Europe. The whole experience in Australia was truly wonderful – the perfect organization, your fascinating work, the facilities at Royal Pines – thank you!”   Joachim ALTONEN Professional, SAS Masters Tour (Finland) “I gained a lot of understanding of my own golf swing, and my ball striking improved a lot. I really enjoyed the mental training, and now I know how I can practice this area of the game when I’m back in Finland. I reached all of my goals that I’d set myself. Outside the golf part of the program I really found the people interesting, and the beaches and trying surfing was absolutely great.”   Nikke TYRY Handicap +1 (Finland) “The mental and management parts were really interesting and beneficial. My swing improved a lot and I really enjoyed the atmosphere within the camp.”   Laszlo STREIT Handicap 2 (Switzerland) “I have a much better understanding about the whole game, and what it takes to be a Tour Player. Every day through training at the Academy I’m becoming more confident and more motivated."   Lasse KOBBERUP Handicap 0 (Denmark) "The program surpassed my expectations – the mental and physical side were truly outstanding. This is exactly what every serious player should experience.”   Hans Peter BACHER Handicap +2 (Austria) “It’s a good way to prepare for the season, and I really enjoyed the Lake MacQuarie International tournament – competing against the best players from England, Scotland, Australia, Korea, New Zealand and of course Austria.”   Tatiana KERNEN Handicap 4 (Switzerland) “Being a full time golfer now is a new and different life for me. Having someone guide and educate me and working together with a long term plan towards a long term goal is great. I can concentrate on my game and have confidence that I’m doing the right things for me to get me to where I want to go with my golf.”   Adam LAMBE Professional (England) “Jon really taught me how to practice productively. I didn’t understand before how to build competitive confidence through training.”
