How do Jaacobs teaching methods differ from Dan Shaugers?
The Swing Man Golf website, in particular, is about half general golf instruction and half swing speed training (which is the really unique aspect of the site). We are not aware of anywhere else on the web that has the depth of swing speed training information that is contained inside the Swing Man Golf website. Although Jaacob has Dan’s certification, he remains somewhat non-partisan to any particular system. Rather, he likes to teach a variety of things, which is pretty much whatever the student is interested in learning. If the student doesn’t know what he/she wants to learn, but has some specific goals he/she wants to accomplish…then Jaacob talks about pros and cons of different aspects (grips, stances, hand actions, leg actions, mental approaches, course strategies, equipment, etc) of what could make the necessary improvement and let the student decide what he/she wants to take from it. So basically, he tailors his instruction to the student’s needs.
