How My Japanese Dinner Will Help Your Golf Game!

Posted on January 19, 2017

Now you are probably thinking how do Sushi and Golf go together? Or is this a foodie blog not a golf instruction blog?

I could tell you stories of growing up in Mt. Prospect, IL playing golf at Mt. Prospect Golf Course with my brothers and Dad. After our rounds or practicing, the next stop would be at our local favorite Sushi restaurant. I know it’s strange but my Mom and Dad hooked our family on Japanese food at an early age:) Also, since I am foodie, passionate golf nut and an instructor, I am always trying to think of new inexpensive ways to help my students improve their golf games.

Kind of crazy but this is an absolutely an awesome drill! You know as loyal subscribers to my newsletter, my instruction philosophy is to get my students to hit the ball smack in the middle of the club face. I feel if more golfers did this we would be growing the game exponentially.

However, it’s not always the easiest thing to do in golf. We all miss shots but we can practice and do drills to help improve our game. Feedback is so important in my teaching. I use pool noodles, baskets, head covers, tees, 2×4’s and millions of other tricks and teaching aids to help my students play better golf.

In this video below, you will find an innovative way to practice. Very inexpensive depending on your choice of Japanese food:)

When one of my friends at dinner decided to use a knife and fork I asked politely if I could have their set of chopsticks. As my mind turned to golf my stomach was being filled with the best sushi in town. But now I had my teaching aids for my students the next morning:)

Since you have watched the video already, you understand how to set up the chop sticks in the best manner to help you hit the ball square off the center of the clubface. Depending on your level of experience start you can set the chopsticks farther or closer apart. You should begin by making small swings preferably with a 9 iron, 7 iron, 5 iron, hybrid, fairway and then a driver.

Try and brush the grass with the irons. You can also place a tee in the middle of the chopsticks and clip the tee. This drill can be used at home or at the course. I love giving drills you can do at home with out a golf ball. You can always add a plastic ball to the mix. Even dryer balls you use to take out static of your clothes work too:) Trying to be creative!

Once you get comfortable swinging through the chopsticks place a ball in the middle and give it a go. I promise you will have a better round of golf the next time you play. You will be swinging through the ball and hitting high powerful golf shots!

I love golf and I love teaching the game! If you love it as much as me and find value in this post please share it with your friends on all of you social media channels! Thank you!

He fixed me! I developed the yips with my wedges and never recovered…they are like foreign objects to me and I hate(d) them…after years of duffing, shanking, chunking…all the bad stuff…listening to my friends…who BTW suck more than I do….my wife finally couldn’t take my whining and got me lessons as a gift…a self preservation move no doubt…well, I looked around … chose Jess … and we got to work…I now have confidence, a positive thought process, a way to fix things when I backslide…and a go to shot green side…I’m excited to play the game again, and highly recommend Jess, plus he’s one of the nicest people one could ask for…if you need help or want to learn the game, he’s your guy! Good luck!

I was lucky enough to find Jess who became the instructor that introduced my better half to the game of golf. He kept her interest, made it fun and maybe most importantly made her a very good golfer. After seeing this, I actually also ended up working with Jess and found that with his skill set he was also great with more experienced golfers that were working on corrections or tweaks that were needed. -- Thanks Jess - We are planning on coming back to you again to help raise our respective games and shave some additional strokes!

Jess Frank has mastered the art of teaching golf. He uses a combination of modern tech and hands on instruction to pinpoint where a player needs improvement and then works through the problems until the skill has been learned. He’s a great instructor for player of all levels and he makes learning golf fun. Jess is patient and really takes the time to know his students so that he can develop a plan tailored to their needs. My swing has improved 100 fold since starting with Jess and I know it will only get better.

In just 2 lessons Jess has already helped my game tremendously. He is professional and calm in his instruction and knows drills for every issue. He also has a slow motion camera that helps analyze your swing. With Jess’s help - I’ll be winning money from my friends in no time!

My wife and I each took a 1/2 hour lesson. Jess was able to spot exactly where we needed help and designed an exercise to get our game together. We are enjoying golf a lot more and playing more. Jess is exceptional!

Jess has a great approach based on providing an understanding of why each step makes a difference. He makes you feel very comfortable and I was amazed by the improvement from just one lesson. Definitely continuing!

Jess is the man!!!! After doing a ton of research online for golf lessons my wife found Jess Frank and purchased me a lesson for my birthday. In one hour Jess identified my problem and fixed it.... I’m not the guy that learns easily on someone explaining fixes but with the technology he uses it was easy for me to understand what I was doing wrong. After 10+ years not hitting my irons pure (or not at all) I experienced some great pure iron shots Within 30 min!!!! Thank you Jess for building my confidence and can’t wait for my next lesson!!!!! I highly recommend Jess!!! It’s not a surprise why he has the best reviews on the internet!!!

Travelled 1,500 miles to Florida with my teenage son. We took a couple lessons from Jess and noticed immediate improvements. My son almost had a hole in one and had a few 290 yards drives afterwards. Fantastic teacher!!
