Golf Magazine honors Dr. David Wright's Golf Schools

MISSION VIEJO, Calif. -- The June 2005 issue of Golf Magazine released its list of the 25 Best Golf Schools in the United States. Once again Dr. David Wright's Golf Schools was selected for this prestigious honor, as it has been named to the Top 25 every year since 1998. This year Dr. Wright's Golf Schools received the third highest individual rating of the Top 25.

2005 has been a year of great recognition for Dr. Wright. In January he was named to Golf Magazine's list of the Top 100 Teachers. In February, Dr. Wright's Golf School was also recognized by The Sporting News as one of the best golf schools in the country.

"We are very pleased that our golf school was named Top 25 by Golf Magazine and we are thankful for this honor. We are proud of what we have accomplished so far, and we are very excited to be expanding to new locations and into instruction products going forward."

In addition, Dr. Wright announced that he has changed the name of the golf school to the Wright Balance Golf Academy and unveiled a new website at www.wrightbalance.com. Dr. David Wright's Golf School had also previously been known as Mind Under Par.

"Our golf school originated with a focus on the mental side of the game. Over the years, however, we have significantly expanded the content we are teaching on the physical side of golf," said Dr. Wright. "The physical and mental sides of the game of golf are completely interrelated and our curriculum is uniquely comprehensive of both. We have been conducting extensive biomechanics research on over 100 variations in the setup and the impact of these on physical balance and club path. This research has led to some remarkable breakthroughs in teaching. We felt it was important to change the name of the golf school in light of our expanded curriculum of golf instruction."
