Your Monthly Golf Instruction Tip from Linda Jochim...
July 2017 Monthly Friendly Tip
Happy July! Hi, Everyone! I’m sure you are all happy that summer is now officially in full swing. No pun intended, OK, maybe just a little. At any rate, I’d just like to update you on what some of my competitive Junior Students are doing with the extra time on their hands. I have quite a few Junior students that are:
1) Competing in the U.S. Kids Local Junior Golf Tour for ages of 6 and under through 18. The top point winners will have their chance to compete all the way to the U.S. Kids World Championship to be held in Pinehurst. This is awesome, because there are children from all over the world who convene at Pinehurst for the Final Competition. They start off with a Welcome Ceremony and parade, followed by 3 days of tournament play for the championship. I’ve had students advance to this wonderful experience. Golf at its best – these kids are the future of golf. [ READ MORE ]

Linda’s Students Improve by Leaps and Bounds on the Green
(Originally posted on the Certified Putting Instructor Website)
Certified Putting Instructor Linda Jochim, a LPGA Class “A” professional based at Leatherman Golf Learning Center in Charlotte, N.C. has been helping her students improve their game through better putting. “The CPI course helped me immensely, both with personal performance, as well as my teaching. I feel like I’m really “well-armed” with loads of pertinent information that I am now able to pass on to my students.”
The Putter Technology section of the course was also useful in helping her students understand more about putters. “I learned so much about putting and putters; why they’re made the way they are, what’s the best type and visual look of putters.”
In addition, Linda has spent more time teaching on the green, sharing her new-found, specialized knowledge of teaching putting. “I have given several putting only lessons lately and my students are improving by leaps and bounds! I have also had great feedback about how much they have improved – so, it seems like the course and knowledge gained from it has been a great personal success for me and my students!”
