Dale uses sophisticated video and computer analysis to assist his students in the learning process.  Viewing your swing from up to four different angles allows you to see what words cannot always express.    Dale uses the interactive drawing tools to compare and contrast your swing with PGA, LPGA and Senior Tour Player's  to give you the visual help you need to create the correct motion.  When you take a lesson your swing will be archived for later comparison so that you can see just how much you've improved.  Click on the photo to the left to see a small sample comparison.
