ShotByShot Statistical Analysis
ShotByShot is a total game analysis program that accurately evaluates your golf game and does so in a unique way. The pros refer to their stats all of the time to evaluate how their games stack up compared to other players at their level. ShotByShot’s online program measures the strengths and weakness of your game and then compares them to your target handicap. This insightful analysis is very helpful in directing our focus and your practice time. ShotByShot is the Performance Analysis Partner to Golf Digest.

Two Comprehensive Short Game Evaluations
This short game test is given to both analyze each player’s short game condition and to help motivate them towards improvement. Through many years of research we know how players at every level should score on this test in order to perform well in tournaments. This test also helps Steve prioritize each participant’s short game practice.

A TOMI Putt Lab Comprehensive Putting Evaluation
TOMI Pro allows Steve to graphically capture and analyze golfers’ putting strokes in real-time. Using a camera, a clip-on sensor, and proprietary software, TOMI uses basic mechanics to measure alignment, rotation, path, loft, impact spot, and tempo. This helps Steve identify any faults in both amateur and pro putting strokes. TOMI’s visual data collection tells Steve instantly what his students are doing. This revolutionary system allows for more effective putting instruction.
