Geoff Mangum Presents Instinctive Putting to 50
Saskatchewan Teaching Pros.
Greensboro NC -- The PuttingZone
REGINA,
SASKATCHEWAN CANADA: March 18 and 19, 2008, Geoff
Mangum presented his PuttingZone techniques for
instinctive putting to over 50 members of the
PGA
of Sasketchewan province in Canada at their
annual Teaching and Coaching Conference in Regina.
Headed by President Kenneth Morrow, the group
took a full-day clinic in Reading, Aiming, Stroking
and Controlling Distance for putting instinctively
in the innovative and historically superlative
techniques of the PuttingZone. The seminar was
held at Wascana
CC in Regina.

you have an interest in seeing a clinic in your
city, use the "Info Request" link on the PuttingZoneClinics.com
website or contact Geoff by email.Ê
SPECIAL
DEAL FOR PGA PROS
PGA
course pros are especially invited to attend these
clinics or to host one at your course. The PuttingZone
offers a minimum payment (20-30% of gross clinic
revenue or $500 to $1,800 depending upon attendance)
to course pros for hosting services without burdening
the pro with details in arranging attendance.
Any sponsoring pro is entitled to bring two other
players to the day-long clinic for free, and the
pro is further entitled to an optional credit
for net proceeds generated by the clinic towards
full certification training by Geoff Mangum over
two days of intensive coverage of how to putt
and how to teach putting.
For
example, if the clinic generates proceeds of over
$1500 for the PZ, the PZ gives the pro the 2-days
of personal certification training for free. In
addition, a PGA pro who attends the clinic and
who later decides within the year to seek certification
as a PZ Coach will receive 100% credit for the
clinic fee against the cost of certification.
For further details, see the webpage
for Certification.
PZ
certified coaches are rapidly becoming recognized
as the top experts in the world for putting teaching,
sharing ideas and methods in a community of learning
and teaching. Don't just give putting the usual
"lick and a promise" -- it's the most vital part
of the game for both players and teachers, and
conventional instruction simply does not come
to grips with the substance of how to read putts,
aiming the putter, and touch, while instruction
for the stroke itself is divided and confusing.
Become a real putting teacher, with a deep knowledge
of what works and why. Contact Geoff at geoff@puttingzone.com
or 336-340-9079 cell / mobile. Let's work together!

Geoff
Mangum is widely regarded as the most knowledgeable
putting coach in the world and has spent 15 years
studying and coaching putting to amateurs and
professionals right up to major winners. Last
year, after his lecture at the European PGA Coaching
Conference, Mangum held a series of clinics for
teaching professionals in Europe and received
rave reviews. He returned this year to hold further
sessions at locations in England and Germany,
teaching over 70 PGA pros and elite golfers.
Shaun
Micheel worked with Mangum in May 2003 and went
from winless on Tour and a low-ranking putter
to winning a major with his putter after a single
lesson. Winner of the 2003 USPGA in July, Micheel
improved his US Tour putting stats from 133rd
to 16th within two months of working on putting
with Geoff Mangum, and said: "Everyone remembers
my [last] seven iron, but my putter won me the
PGA Championship." Golf Magazine 2004. Micheel
recently finished runner-up to Tiger Woods in
the 2006 PGA Championship after the same caliber
putting performance. Other standout PuttingZone
students include Chris Hanson on the EuroPro Tour
and Ben Parker, who won the Orange Bowl Junior
Invitational in Miami (December 2005) over a world-class
field with an opening round 63 that left the field
6 strokes behind. He followed that with an opening
62 at the Tasmanian Open, which he also won, a
month later. For testimonials from veteran teachers,

Mangum's
approach is to combine the best of existing putting
lore with application of the neuroscience for
human perception and movement in putting, targeting
and stroke control. This "Mechanics of Instincts"
approach teaches the teachers how the instincts
actually work on the green and enables golfers
to use body postures and movements in a structured
putting routine that enhances rather than conflicts
with these basic human processes for instinctive
behaviour. The result is a permanent and dramatic
increase in putting competence and the added confidence
that comes with real skill.
