Our Teaching Philosophy
For us, life-long learning in golf starts with a simple belief. If you can improve a player's performance, you will improve their enjoyment of the game.
ModelGolf
The Marshes Golf Academy is the only course in Canada where the ModelGolf learning method can be experienced and all of our instructors are very excited about introducing all new and returning students to this unique learning process.

The ModelGolf learning method has evolved out of biomechanical research of athletic performance as it relates to golf. Approximately 160 of the world’s elite men and women professionals have been studied and the data gathered has been used to create a three dimensional “Model” player who can emulate a perfect swing based on all the best characteristics of the group.
The student’s body dimensions are entered into the ModelGolf program and an exact replica of the student is created. The model then swings the club perfectly. The student’s swing is then video taped and his or her model is then superimposed over their swing. The student can then see their errors as compared to their model. From this information the student’s personal improvement program is created.
Students who subscribe to the ModelGolf Program receive the benefit of one of its most innovative features, which is access to all of their lessons and personal improvement program online. Students receive a username and password and from the ModelGolf website can view a record of all their lessons in addition exercises and drills that comprise their personal improvement program.
ModelGolf uses state of the art technology to capture the students swing and combined with the Accusport Vector Launch monitor provides the students of The Marshes Golf Academy with the most modern cutting edge equipment to analyze their swing, equipment and game improvement methodology.
