Lee Sheldon Golf

26/08/2026

Our juniors at Charnwood Golf & Leisure are having such a successful season. Here’s the latest to jump into the winner’s circle.

So this little fella one of regulars coached by the one and only Lee Sheldon Golf has only gone and won his 1st ever competition at edwalton on Tuesday . Massive congrats Addison ⛳️ 🏌️‍♂️ 🥇 🏆 “

Statement from a proud mother ❤️

“Our 9-year-old son started playing golf 12 months ago (after a chance viewing of Happy Gilmore). He spends a lot of time practicing at Charnwood Golf Range and wanted to make some improvements to his swing so, when we saw that there was a coaching opportunity with Lee Sheldon we thought we’d give it a go. Fast forward just a few months and we have seen a real improvements in our son’s golfing skills and overall confidence, so much so that he recently competed in his first golf competition and won!

He trusts Lee, fully engages with his feedback and continues to make the recommended adjustments to improve his game. He always looks forward to his next coaching session. If you have children who want to learn to play golf or wish to refine their skills I’d wholeheartedly recommend Lee and the Charnwood Gold and Leiaure complex”

Most golfers think a stronger core means endless sit-ups.

It doesn’t.

Your core has two main jobs in the golf swing:
✅ Create rotation
✅ Resist unwanted rotation

That’s why today’s session combined cable rotations with the Pallof Press.

Train your body to produce power and control it, and you’ll improve both distance and consistency.

Do you include anti-rotation work in your training? ⛳💪

Balance: The Foundation of Consistent Golf

When most golfers hear the word “balance”, they immediately think about not falling over during the swing.

While that’s certainly important, balance in golf goes much deeper than that.

The best golfers display balance in both their body and their mind. They remain stable throughout the swing, but they also stay emotionally balanced regardless of whether the previous shot was good or bad.

Many golfers allow one poor shot to affect the next. Frustration creeps in, tension increases and decision-making becomes rushed. Before long, a single mistake has turned into a costly sequence of errors.

The most consistent players understand that every shot is a new challenge. They focus on the present moment rather than dwelling on what has already happened.

Physical balance is equally important.

A good golf swing requires stability and control. Rather than swaying from side to side, great ball strikers stay centred and maintain pressure in their lead side throughout the swing. This helps create a predictable low point, better contact and more consistent ball flight.

One of the reasons many golfers struggle with consistency is that they move excessively during the swing. When the body’s centre of mass shifts too much, controlling the strike becomes much more difficult.

The goal isn’t to make a swing that looks athletic. The goal is to create a movement that allows the club to return to the ball consistently.

The next time you practice, pay attention to your finish position.

Can you hold your finish comfortably for three seconds?

If you can, there’s a good chance your swing was balanced and under control. If you struggle to maintain your finish, it may indicate that your movement was excessive or that you lost control of your centre during the swing.

Balance is not just about staying upright.

It’s about controlling your movement, managing your emotions and giving yourself the best opportunity to produce the same swing time after time.

When your body and mind are working together, consistency becomes much easier to achieve.
