Internationally based, Peter Croker travels across Europe, the US, Asia and Australia annually delivering seminars, teaching schools and working with teachers wanting to improve results for their own students. Peter has also worked with a number of PGA pros who would rather not let it be known where their secrets come from. A little research will reveal who they are... All over the world, Peter's Professional Teaching "Students" are sought out by golfers and recognized by their golfing association peers as being Top Teachers in their sections. In 2002 Harper Collins published his Path to Better Golf Book. He has been featured in Golf Digest, appeared on the Golf Channel and written about in many golf publications worldwide. This DVD set introduces you to the definitions used, an understanding of "cause and effect" and a new understanding of how proper alignments help create truly effortless yet powerful results. The First Lesson is comprised of the definitions as well as demonstrations which will help the viewer understand how for years golfers have been confused by "illusions" related to lag and weight shift. The next lesson covers Putting. A number of important drills are demonstrated. Along with the drills, Peter discusses how to gain a consistent stroke and understand the mechanics at work on the green. Chipping is the next lesson in the series. In it you will learn the proper grip, stance, posture and alignments necessary to build a great short game, and the foundation for the full swing as well. You will discover the impact zone, and how compressing the golf ball leads to distance control. Several major breakthroughs await the patient student in this section. Following on from the Chipping lesson is Pitching. In this lesson, the student learns the proper method to load the hands in the back swing, maintain balance throughout the swing and stay relaxed. The student will gain an entirely new appreciation for how the hands help create the swing and allow the body to turn back and through resulting in a well struck shot. The final lesson on Disc One is Full Swing Part One. In this lesson Peter reviews grip, stance, posture as well as the other component parts of the swing such as forward press, waggle and takeaway. Disc Two continues the Full Swing Lessons with Parts Two through Four. These lessons demonstrate the body pivot, top of the back swing, going "A to B", start and end of impact, release, follow-through and finish. Drills associated with this section will enable the student to get beyond the thinking. Finally, watch Peter as he plays a few holes and follow along as he talks you through his though process and course management ideas. No complete catalog of lessons would be finished w

A GOOD BEGINNING opens this informative and interesting new golf book, whose primary premise is keeping the golf swing simple. The first chapter describes the overlapping grip, the one used by the majority of golfers worldwide. Each chapter covers a fundamental, with a short story from Florine Hageras lesson tee that points to the main emphasis in the chapter. In this book, you will find a simple method for playing different shots with the club designed for that shot, understanding how that equipment is used, and the importance of choosing the right club for each shot. Putting is the simplest shot in golf and it is wise to learn to stroke a putt properly before going to the next easiest shot, the chip shot. It is well worth the time and patience it takes to understand these two simple strokes before incorporating what you learn from them into the full swing.
