Skip Marini Golf Lessons app for iPhone and iPad

Skip Marini Golf Lessons is an iPad app that’s designed to help improve your golf game– without spending a small fortune on expensive golf lessons.

The app includes 15 video lessons for both the beginner and intermediate golfer.

Watch as renowned photographer, author and workshop leader Rick Sammon in his down time, trades his Canon 5D for a 5 iron and the teacher becomes the student! In the easy-to-follow and fun video lessons, all shot in beautiful Westchester, NY, Skip and Rick will show you how to get out of trouble, whether in the rough, sand trap or under a tree. How to correctly set yourself up when addressing the ball and making sure your drive is straight and long. You’ll learn how to hit the “flop shot” for that high and soft landing on the green. And a great method for practicing your putting.

The movies, shot by Emmy-award winner David Leveen, are divided into Five sections:

Basics: The Setup, Ball Position, Hand Position for the Full Swing, The Drive,
Ball Trajectory and Weight Transfer.

Wedge Shots: Using the Sand Wedge around the Green and in the Sand.

Chip Shots: Above the Hole, Below the Hole and the “Flop Shot”.

Putting: How to Putt and Practicing Your Putting Stroke.

Trouble: Getting Out of the Rough and Out From Under a Tree.

The app was developed by Craig Ellis of Great Oak Software (www.greatoaksoftware.com). In discussing the app, Craig said, “As a weekend golfer myself who is always looking to improve my game, it was a pleasure being part of the foursome to create Skip Marini Golf Lessons. The app contains valuable techniques helping you learn to shave strokes off your score allowing you to enjoy the game of golf even more. The instructions video lessons are fun and easy to follow in an intuitive user interface where its like getting several private lessons from Golf Pro Skip Marini right in the comfort and convenience of your iPad”.
