Why positive impact golf?

It's been a while since I wrote a blog but I felt it time I did.

So what's new? What's the last 7 months looked like for Julian Mellor

Well let me tell you, it's been absolutely awesome. why you ask? Because of Positive Impact Golf. 

Let me share my story with you if I may!!

It all started when I sent out a tweet and had a reply from a dear friend of mine Pete the butcher, he asked to meet up ASAP as he had something he wanted to tell me. Firstly I got a telling off in a nice way then he progressed to tell me about a great friend of his Brian Sparks and how he is now coaching all over the world, and the fact that he's that busy he needs more coaches like myself, he made me promise to meet up with Brian and discuss what's happening to him. 

Well we met up at a fantastic course called the Centurion and we chatted for hours and hours. He was telling me about a video he put on YouTube (easiest swing in golf) and the amount of interest it has created, he's had well over 200 thousand views, he also gave me a copy of a book he's written called Positive Impact Golf and went on to explain how many countries it's sold in,over 32 at last count. 

I asked what was his secret and how come he had become so popular, simple was his reply , I've made the golf swing easy again!! I've broken so called modern teaching and allowed people to swing freely, I was Intrigued and asked if he would explain it to me. 

So my journey began, never before had I seen anyone make the golf swing look so easy and yet the ball fizzed off so straight and true, no loss of distance and he did it time and time again. 

It was then my turn, all my professional golfing life I had worked on positions , if "A" wasn't right there is no way "B" could be right , I had pieced my swing together to what I thought was a good swing yet my mind was full of thoughts, never being able to play my shots freely, always thinking each and every swing had to be perfect!! well how wrong could I have been??!! 

Once I started to fully understand the methodology I couldn't believe how far away from a natural swing I was, no wonder I could never trust it under pressure, no wonder I found golf difficult, and once I had adopted the method there was no way I would ever go back to swinging in positions.

So I started to coach the Positive Impact Golf way and to say I've been blown away by the results my clients have been achieving is an understatement , never before have I had so many , calls, texts and emails from golfers shooting their best rounds and winning competitions. 

The strange thing is, if I taught this was in my PGA exam I would fail, how wrong is that!!  because we don't preach perfect and we don't restrict movement we would be seen to be not doing it right. 

If you read the press you'd hear doom and gloom especially in America, courses closing , golf on the decline but the reality is Golf teaching has become too technical and unachievable and it's made golf hard when it needn't be, social and occasional golfers have been switched off. People don't want to play golf by numbers , they want to stand on the tee, apply their most natural swing and watch as their ball sails down the fairway, and that my friends is why Positive Impact Golf is here to stay and why we who coach it, will bring back the enjoyment of the game . 

If this has Intrigued you please make contact and let's chat about it in more detail, thanks for taking time to read this

Happy golfing
