Shopify <p> <h4>About Swing Reminders</h4> <p> All golfers are looking for that one thing to help them improve their games. That one thing may never be found, considering all golfers are different. With each golfer being different and thinking different about how to play the game something is needed to help all golfers, not just one group. Swing Reminders is a simple system of hardwood tokens and accompanying tips booklet to help you focus on the aspects of the game you want to improve. <p> For years I carried a small piece of paper in my right pocket when playing golf. I would write a swing thought or two on the paper. Something to keep me thinking about simple swing thoughts, instead of letting my head go nuts and think about too many things. Every time I would reach in my pocket to get a tee or a ball marker, I would feel the paper and pull it out to give me another little reminder. In golf, we know the more we think the worse we play. It is a game and should be just like any other game we play, instinctive. When I teach golf, I always talk with students about not thinking, just reacting. I often use the analogy of playing shortstop in baseball. If the ball comes to you, you don’t have to think what to do with it; you just scoop it up and throw it to first base. Golf is the same as any other sport; muscle memory, just swing the club. But it often takes years of practice to teach your muscles what to do and how to do it. While you’re still learning or relearning a technique Swing Reminders is there to help, providing simple tips to keep you focused. <p> <h4>The Swing Reminders Concept</h4> I woke up on November 19, 2006 at 3:30 A.M. and all I could think about was swing reminders. I went to my desk and started to write down ideas. In a few minutes I had the basic idea of the round wooden tokens, and a list of about 20 reminders. I tried to go back to bed, but my mind just kept thinking of new ideas. So, I went back to the computer and started to write more things down. About 7:30 am, I sent my brother Chris an e-mail with the idea and it has just taken off from there. I sent in a provisional patent on November 28, 2006. Chris fired up his laser cutter and cut the first set of demo swing reminders. Since then, the list of reminders has grown and the actual tokens have evolved from wood to metal and then back to wood. I have broken them down into categories. Each category covers several different ideas and should make it easier to see which areas you may want to focus on. <p> <h4>About the Owner</h4> Scott Jessee was born and raised in Bristol, Virginia/Tennessee. He joined the United States Air Force in July 1982 and retired in February 2004. His military career was a great adventure that afforded him the opportunity to see 27 countries and play golf in 13 of them (his personal goal is to play golf in 20 countries). After retirement from the Air Force, he attended the San Diego Golf Academy in Chandler, Arizona, graduating in August 2005 with an Associates Degree in Golf Course Operations & Management. It has been fun writing this booklet and I hope you’ve gotten something from it and Swing Reminders. However, it would not have been possible without some very important people; Thanks to my wife Julie (who never let me give up), my kids, Cody, Jerrad and Sami, my brother Chris (I owe him a ton), my Mom for proofreading and of course my constant companion Cody Bear. The list of Swing Reminders continues to grow. Look for the next batch of Swing Reminders…… ideas like “The Bottom of the Circle”, “Putting is All Feel”, “Stop Thinking & Start Playing”, and “Course Management”. <p> Remember to keep your golf simple and you will play better golf. “It’s only a game”, have fun with it. If you need help with your golf swing, go see your local PGA or LPGA Golf Professional. <p> <i>-Scott Jessee, President Swing Reminders Inc.</i> <p> To download a list of our reminders, please click <a href="http://static2.shopify.com/s/files/1/0024/1062/files/The_Swing_Reminder_List.doc" alt = "Swing Reminders List">here</a>. </p> <p><br /><h4>About Swing Reminders</h4><br /><p><br />All golfers are looking for that one thing to help them improve their games.
