Golf Performance and Improvement

Do you want to play the game for longer, have better consistency with strike and direction, increased distance and lower scores? Unleash your golfing potential with the Tee Box Golf Performance Assessment, utilising the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Body-Swing Connection system.

TPI’s Philosophy

TPI believes that golfers should match their swing style to their movement capabilities. The philosophy is simple:

“There are an infinite number of ways to swing a golf club. However, there is one most-efficient way for each player to swing a club and it is based on what they can physically do”.

Please note: Bookings are only available from 2:30pm to 8:30pm on Wednesdays. Please email golf@teebox.co.nz if you wish to book outside these hours.

The Tee Box Golf Performance Assessment

  • What is TPI?

    TPI (Titleist Performance Institute), based in California USA, is the world's leading educational organization dedicated to the study of how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing. For over twenty years, TPI has gathered the world’s largest technical database of the game’s top Tour professionals as well as every-day golfers. TPI collects 3D motion capture, force, pressure, launch monitor, strength, power, and movement data on every player that visits the TPI campus. Using this data, TPI discovered how a properly functioning body allows a player to swing a golf club in the most efficient way possible. Conversely, TPI determined how physical limitations in a player’s body can adversely affect the golf swing and potentially lead to injury. This relationship is what TPI calls The Body-Swing Connection.

  • Golf History and Goals

    The assessment begins with a brief history of your golf game, current golf standard, any current physical limitations, what you find challenging when it comes to playing golf and where you want to go with your game.

  • Body Movement Screen

    The movement screen is a simple series of tests to quickly evaluate your physical capabilities. The results of that assessment are used to determine how technical elements of your swing could be related to what your body can or cannot do. The results of the screen are used to create a plan unique to you. You will also have a Golf Fitness Handicap as a baseline to track progress over time.

  • Swing Characteristics Analysis

    Using Trackman’s state of the art technology along with dual cameras a detailed analysis of your swing will be performed and related back to your movement screen. Being able to identify how certain swing characteristics are connected to your physical characteristics is the core of the Body-Swing Connection.

  • Custom Designed Training Programme

    Once the screen and swing analysis is complete, you will receive all the data from the session via email and a report on the myTPI app. You then have the option of purchasing additional sessions to progress customised exercises and drills to work on your Body-Swing Connection.

  • Beginners or Established Golfers

    A 45-60min Golf Performance Assessment includes:

    Body movement screen

    Slow motion video swing analysis
