It's been another busy week at Noah's Ark, withlots of coaching and custom fitting takingplace. We've also had the painters in to sandback and re-paint the front cable end of thebuilding, which now looks lovely and fresh onceagain. Thanks to Steve Rose and Ebo, who havedone another great job (despite the dodgybanter!!)
Over the next 4-6 weeks, we are planning tostart re-furbishing the driving bays. We'll bereplacing any damaged or worn panels on the baydividers and will be giving them a paint, in alighter fresher colour. We'll just be working ona couple of bays at a time, so there hopefullyshould be minimal disruption.

Play better golf - Rhythm and Tempo
This week, instead of talking about swingtechnique I thought that I'd discuss the rhythmand tempo of your golf swing. Something that isoften overlooked. Having a sound technique isvery important, but without a good rhythm andtempo, consistency will elude you.
So, what is good rhythm and tempo I hear youask?
Rhythm describes the flow of your golf swing. Atone end of the spectrum would be Phil Mickelsonand at the other end would be Zach Johnston.Mickelson has a long and loose swing and Johnsona short and compact one. Neither is better thanthe other, just different.
Tempo describes the speed of your swing. At oneend of the scale would be Ernie Els and at theother Rickie Fowler. Ernie has a slow tempo andRickie a fast one. Once again neither is betterthan the other.
So how will this knowledge help you? The answerlies not so much in golf, but instead in yourgeneral life and the way you go about it. Yourgolf swing rhythm and tempo should match yournatural persona. Some people are more relaxedand others more rigid. Your golf swing rhythmshould match this. Some people rush around at100 miles an hour, other seem like they have allday. Your golf swing tempo should match this. Ifyou're not sure which category you fit into,then just ask a friend, I'm sure they'll nothesitate to tell you!
