PuttingZone Video Released

PuttingZone Video with Steve Elkington Released

The PuttingZone's premiere video is now OUT! Entitled "The Reality of Putting -- Geoff Mangum with Steve Elkington", is an hour-long presentation of the main teachings developed over the past 20 years in the PuttingZone for brain-based instinctive putting skills of reading, aiming, stroking, and controlling distance and speed. Combining the best of golf lore from a comprehensive 100-year survey with modern physics, anatomy, biomechanics, motor learning science, measurement and training technologies, PLUS the NEW neuroscience of brain-body processes for perception and movement in the relevant tasks of putting skills, the PuttingZone program is far and away the ONLY complete and integrated system for putting skills ever developed.

Filmed at the historic Champions Golf Club owned and operated by Masters legend Jackie Burke Jr., the video is offered as an immediate download from the independent website TheRealityofPutting.com. The purchase price of $35 (payable online) gives access to the video in either a 668 MB Quick-Time .mp4 file or a larger 1.3 GB Windows Media Player .wmv file, along with an introductory PDF that gives a 10-page rundown of the skills content and reproduces the video figures and photos.

Don't miss out on the most advanced and effective putting instruction available. Recent successes by players trained in the PuttingZone techniques include the British Amateur, the US Amateur (and 3 of the 4 semifinalists), a sweep of all top three positions in the World Amateur Ranking, both number-1 ranked Division I male and female players, the Western Open, Porters Cup, North and South, and others. This is different.

Download your copy of the best putting instruction in the history of golf and take your game to the next level. Visit TheRealityofPutting.com for details and ordering.

And it makes a great gift for the holidays if you know a friend who could use the help!

Cheers!

PuttingZone Live Webinar

PuttingZone Live Webinar -- Your Invitation


Hi Friends,

I'm launching an online educational training curriculum for putting instruction that is in the beta testing phase, so if you're interested in attending a live online seminar of PuttingZone teachings at no charge / free, just send me email at geoff@puttingzone.com with "PZBLOG" in the subject line. The first seminar will be tomorrow, Saturday, 20 November 2010 and another on Sunday (exact times to be announced in the invitation).

These webinars are part of a complete curriculum for training all four putting skills and more -- planned as a series of nine independent courses:

• Putting -- The Untaught Skills
• The Science and Technique of Putting Touch
• The Science and Technique of the Putting Stroke
• The Science and Lore of Reading Putts
• The Science and Lore of Aiming in Putting
• The Science of Putter Design, Selection and Fitting
• Putting Psychology and Mental Management
• Teaching and Learning Science for Putting
• Putting Technology for Training and Teaching

The free beta session is Putting -- The Untaught Skills.

The curriculum is designed based upon the most advanced educational curriculum approaches available today, Bloom's "taxonomy of educational objectives" implemented with "Understanding by Design" (UbD) protocols for transforming "coverage" knowledge into deep comprehension / understanding of how the knowledge of skills ("know-how") applies in myriad on-course situations with intelligent flexibility. This is supplemented with top educational-psychology learning theory such as "experiential" learning and "information / cognitive load theory" in the defining of the learning objective, the structuring of teaching protocols, and the assessment of learner progress.







The current webinar technology takes advantage of the GoToWebinar.com platform supplemented with live streaming video and standard digital authoring programs (Adobe Creative Suite 5, Microsoft Office, Mac iWorks, QuickTime video, etc.). This platform offers email registration, reminders, and follow-up, live audio, realtime Q&A from the audience, pre-session handouts, polling and testing, desktop sharing, PowerPoint and Keynote presentations, session recording and archiving, and more.



And of course the "meat" of the courses is the best in the history of golf, informed by the most extensive and intense study of putting ever undertaken, covering everything written in books, articles, chapters, and even websites on putting lore and instruction since the 1880s, as well as the complete host of videos and DVD and ebooks available, as further informed by a direct long-term study of putting by amateurs and professional players throughout history and more.

Conventional golf instruction for putting since the 1800s has been hopelessly stuck on the stroke, plus a bit of where to stand when reading a putt and nothing worthwhile about aiming or touch at all. The PuttingZone is the ONLY instruction in the history of the game that systematically addresses and INTEGRATES all four skills for putting. And the PuttingZone is the ONLY golf instruction that applies modern neuroscience to the perceptual and movement processes of the brain and body in putting skills on the green.

If you'd like to experience this program during beta testing, please email me at geoff@puttingzone.com today to receive the "invitation" with directions and password for joining the session. The first beta session will be tomorrow, Saturday, 20 November 2010.

Cheers!
