Lesson of the Week: Peter Slaven

By Wayne | Videos: Lesson of the Week

Peter is a very good player (he has qualified for the U.S. Mid-Am) who works a lot and doesn’t have time to practice a whole lot. He enjoys working on his swing (he sees a teacher in Chicago) and is a willing student. He is quite strong and has a nice, fluid motion, and I have concentrated in the few times we have worked on helping him improve his grip, stance and posture while going over how I would like to see him simplify his swing. His tendency is to trigger his swing with a sitting back movement and then bow his left wrist while moving his arms and hands away from his body.
