STRENGTH TO SCRATCH IMPROVEMENTS
The goal of this program is take advantage of the winter season to maximize your playing ability in the summer. Strength to Scratch is built very similarly to a collegiate athletics program's weight room training. This program is built to increase muscle mass and mobility/flexibility. This in turn will improve club head speed which has been proven to increase carry distance & bring down strokes.
