Jim McLean and TrackMan University are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration where the two parties will deliver education seminars across the United States in 2012.
McLean is a long time TrackMan owner and one of the top golf instructors in the world, named 1994 PGA of America Teacher of The Year, and currently ranked No.3 by Golf Digest, among many other distinctions. McLean was one of the first golf instructors to declare that Face Angle was far more important than Club Path in determining Launch Direction. TrackMan has since then proven McLean's theory to be true. TrackMan, among other discoveries, has further proven that Club Path and Face Angle - as a rule of thumb - determine Launch Direction on a ratio of 1 to 4.
