PlayMaker 6:
The Six Elements

To become a complete golfer, you have to learn where your starting point is.

We use our unique PlayMaker 6 coaching philosophy to guide you through the 6 most critical elements:

1Off The Tee - For longer, more accurate tee shots

2Approach The Green - Distance control, tighter dispersions

3Around The Green - Mastering landing spots and up & downs

4Putting - Read, speed, line (it contributes to scoring more than you think)

5Course Navigation - Master the art of course navigation

6And lastly: Mindset - How to develop repeatable consistency

Fundamental to our PlayMaker 6 coaching philosophy, is the dual focus on both the ‘Golf Swing’ and ‘On-Course Play’. It’s not just another ‘Swing System’. It’s the first system that actually teaches you how to play golf.

The six elements of PlayMaker 6 will teach you everything you need to know to become a complete golfer.

Golfers need both an efficient swing and an effective strategy to play at the top of their game. PlayMaker 6 combines learning and performance in both these areas to improve ball striking ability and scoring.

There is a really effective way to improve your on-course performance, by playing virtual golf and tracking your data. We aren’t replacing outdoor practice, we are complimenting it.

Hear from our members

"My handicap went from about 9 down to 6 in less than 12 weeks, which is the lowest that I’ve ever been. And it’s purely been because of the choices that I’ve been able to make on course, after coaching and using TrackMan data. Out of the 6 areas, Course Strategy was definitely the area that improved the most. It’s lowered my scores, reduced my handicap, and it’s made my game that much better."

Dewald Jacobs

"When I started, I had the main goal to reduce my handicap, and we were able to take off 11 shots! The aspect I really enjoyed was Around the Green. Working with my coach, Gavin, we focused on getting the most out of our shots. Having different options of what we could play on the course really paid off for me. It took my handicap from 29 down to 18, so I’m a very happy golfer."

GEORGE GOODMAN

"What has improved the most for me has been my Mindset and Course Strategy. My coach has really taught me to focus on my pre-shot routine, so it’s consistent each time I play. As well as other things, like not taking my driver off the tee every time, ensuring I’m calculating my distances, looking at the wind direction, determining which club I should choose off the tee, and more. It’s changed the way I play."

Callum Spence

"It’s all about the metrics. Whether you’re at the gym or wherever you’re training, you’re looking for incremental and measurable gains. It’s how people train these days. So, to come to GolfSpace and be coached in this way… just works for me. The other day I went out and played a round with my mate. I shot 15 over and he shot 30 over. The last time we played we were the same. I said, “Mate, there’s only one thing that’s changed between now and the last time we played – I joined GolfSpace."

Tom De Jersey

"Prior to joining GolfSpace I had no practice plan at all. I’d just go and hit balls and hope that hitting balls would make me better. There was no method. My handicap hovered around 14 and never really changed. I had a few lessons on the range but they were focused on swing and had zero structure. At GolfSpace I was given a bespoke practice plan. So now, instead of aimlessly hitting balls on the range, I have a framework and I am given a score. Like my chip shots for instance, and the next time I come back to work on those shots I’m looking to improve on the last time. After 12 weeks my handicap is at 4.2. I’ve never in my life been that low."
