April 17, 2010 | Windermere, Florida — Last week, Rotary Swing Golf announced that more than 60 Rotary Swing Tour (RST) golf instruction videos on their RotarySwing.com website will be available for viewing on Apple’s new iPad.  Both Free and Premium Members can enjoy this functionality, which was originally designed in response to members’ requests for iPhone golf instruction videos.

The new functionality required some significant programming changes but greatly improves membership value for many of the site’s members, according to Rotary Swing Golf Founder Chuck Quinton.

“We’ve been getting lots of feedback from members who have been replacing in-person golf lessons from local teaching professionals with our video golf instruction,” Quinton said.  “We’ve actually grown in this tough economy, in part because of the tremendous value we offer.  For the cost of a one hour in-person golf lesson, you can access several hours of instruction on our website for three months, six months, even a year or longer, depending on the instructor’s rates.”

According to Quinton, providing members the ability to take their favorite RotarySwing.com golf instruction videos anywhere represents the natural next step in the evolution of this process.

“Though we recently started certifying instructors to teach our Rotary Swing Tour model, we don’t have instructors in every major city…yet,” Quinton said.  “The ability for students to use our iPad golf instruction feature at their practice facilities is a major advancement in bridging that gap.”

Quinton feels that his approach to golf instruction meshes well with technological advances in golf.  In fact, he’s certain that part of his competitive advantage stems from the application of technology–like the force plates, launch monitors and high speed cameras that litter his teaching studio–to his teaching methods and research.

“My golf instruction is 100 percent based on scientific facts proven through research,” Quinton said.  “I will always look to incorporate any technology that helps me uncover more golf swing facts or deliver those facts to my students.”

Windermere, FL (PRWEB) February 26, 2010 – Last week, Chuck Quinton, founder of Rotary Swing Golf and RotarySwing.com, unveiled the much anticipated Rotary Swing Tour (RST)  Level 1 Certification Manual for purchase by golf instructors and students alike.  RST Certification aims to move golf instruction away from opinions, personal preference and interpretation of Tour pro swings and toward the Olympic training model, the basis of which is scientific research and facts about how the human body moves safely and most efficiently.

Quinton is surprised the golf instruction industry continues chasing the latest fad or favorite swings of each era, somehow avoiding the evolution experienced in most Olympic sports.  In speed skating, ski jumping and high jump (to name but three), all competitors’ techniques are essentially the same thanks to research uncovering the most efficient body movements necessary for success.

Perhaps this absence of evolution in golf instruction explains why handicaps have hardly changed the past few decades, despite unprecedented advancements in technology.

“The lack of handicap improvement is an indictment of our industry,” said Quinton.  “A paradigm shift was needed in golf instruction.  We didn’t care what Tour pros did.  Ideal models aren’t based on popularity; they are objective and based on facts about science, the body and the brain.”

This 140-plus page golf instructor certification manual is the culmination of his research.  It offers a foundation in disciplines such as physics, anatomy, biomechanics and physiology to help ensure golf instructors no longer struggle to answer students’ tough questions like “Why am I doing this?” and “How exactly do I get into that position?”

“Many golfers are told they can’t make a full shoulder turn due to a lack of flexibility,” said Quinton.  “They’re victims of bad information.  I’ve never had a student who couldn’t make a full 90 degree turn after I teach them how to use the muscles truly responsible for rotating the body.  Understanding some basic anatomy and biomechanics is the key to helping golfers improve and avoid injury.”

And although the term “golf biomechanics” has been bandied about for several years now, RST redefines the category.

“Most golf biomechanics data comes from top players’ swings,” said Quinton.  “Unfortunately, all of these players are flawed, some significantly so. Statistics show that over 80% of professional golfers will miss 8 weeks of competitive play due to injury during their careers. The vast majority of these injuries could easily be avoided.”

Quinton pointed out that a number of pros in the 1970s had huge hip slides in their swings and played great golf.  Now, they are lining up for hip replacements.

“Basing your swing on Tour pros can be hazardous to your health!” said Quinton.  “Science, not your favorite Tour player, should dictate your swing model.”

The RST model meets this tough standard and receives support from Dr. Jeff Broker, former Senior Biomechanist for the U.S. Olympic Committee and current member of the Rotary Swing Golf Medical Panel.

“It’s based on sound biomechanics….It’s a very simple model, yet it’s powerful,” said Dr. Broker.

Importantly, the RST Instructor Certification Manual doesn’t just stop with the swing model.  It supplies an introduction to research about how the brain learns complex movement patterns–like the golf swing–and how instructors must use this information to maximize students’ practice time and effect real change.

The RST Certification Manual can be purchased as an eBook ($29.95) or a paperback ($49.95).  Click here for details:  http://www.rotaryswing.com/golf-training-aids/rotary_swing_tour_certification_manual-level_1.

Windermere, FL (PRWEB) April 22, 2008 — Through the use of its proprietary golf swing and online instruction technique, RotarySwing.com is quickly changing the golf instruction landscape. The Rotary Swing is the simplest way to learn to swing a golf club and with the new online golf instruction program, golfers can submit their videos online and receive a “movie” back of their online golf lesson from a former professional golfer on the Nationwide Tour. Currently, RotarySwing.com is offering a discount on these online golf lessons for only $49.

Chuck Quinton, founder of the Rotary Swing technique and golf instructor in Windermere, FL, has helped thousands of golfers shave their handicaps by learning his simple swing technique. “So many golfers come to me in desparation, frustrated with the current state of their games. Golf instruction in the past has failed them because it was too complex and difficult to learn given their limited practice time. I’ve simplified the golf swing into simple Rotary Swing fundamentals that can be learned in less than 15 minutes so that even the busy professional with limited time to practice can improve after online one lesson,” Quinton says.

Quinton’s results have been impressive to say the least, with members of his golf instruction website shaving over 10 strokes off their handicaps in as little as 2 months. And his work on the professional tours has been equally impressive with one of his students, Paul Dickinson, leading three rounds of a 2007 Nationwide Tour event. Now, Paul is Quinton’s lead instructor and performs all the online golf lessons. “Adding Paul to the team was a strategic move to ensure we could handle all the new students who are coming to the Rotary Swing and provide them with world class golf instruction. Paul has now done hundreds of online lessons via our website and we couldn’t be happier with the results,” said Quinton.

Simplify your golf swing today and enjoy your best ball striking ever by learning the very simple technique of the Rotary Golf Swing. If you are tired of struggling with your golf swing and want to simplify your technique, visit the home of the Simple Golf Swing -http://www.RotarySwing.com
