Hi Philip,

I enjoy playing better golf today. After learning from your one-on-one Intermediate Golfer Swing Training Program I had cut 15 strokes from my score.

Your golf short games technique are very valuable to me now. Now I can pitch and chip the ball on uneven ground conditions to near the hole with more success and confidence.

Thanks for sharing with me your rich golf swing knowledge.

Philip is super coach. I started with zero knowledge about golf and after his 3 months intensive and comprehensive training I played my first game gross score of 91. Philip will definitely be the golf coach for my recommendation.

Just a short note for you to know how knowledgeable you are Philip Ang. I have to fly from Japan to see you for correcting my golf swing. Thank you for teaching me the in-depth technical knowledge of the golf swing bio-mechanic. I feel more confidence in hitting the ball to the target now.

I like to thank Philip for helping me to get my perfect swing. I played golf for 5 years and taken lessons from 6 golf professionals. Philip is the only professional that teaches and explains the physiology of the body and the swing techniques in full details. He processes the attributes of a teaching professional I being look for (thank to my friend recommendation). The dynamics golf swing drills training he employed make my learning and mastering the swing fun and interesting. I now hit balls straighter and gained more distance despite at my age at 66. I also introduces my brother (age 70) to Philip and he is also very please with Philip’s methodology of teaching.

Hi Philip, your methodology of teaching and in-depth knowledge of the golf swing merits this thank-you note. I learnt so much from your 10-Lessons golf swing training program. Now I can hit the ball more proficiently and confidently. My balls shot performance go straighter and farther.

Philip exhibit far more technical and vocational teaching skills than the golf professional who taught me in Korea six month ago. You had made me mastering the golf swing much easier. Thank you again.

I like to thank Philip for getting my golf swing and game at the right track. As a beginner I learnt so much from him that I am able break my 100 score after two months his training. I achieve the confidence to hit the ball solidly and now my games are more fun and exciting. I like his teaching methodology especially the instructions and therapeutic drills that help me to use the correct muscles to attain the body flexibility for the golf swing.

In fact I can get my wife to start and hitting the ball by sharing the strong fundamentals and foundation of the golf swing I learnt from Philip. She is now able to play with me on the golf course. I did recommend a few friends to Philip and they are impress and benefit from his swing training programs.

Hi Philip, On behalf of the 20 Soonye Kim Soon Club members I like to express my sincere thank for the excellent golf clinic coaching at Awana Golf Resorts. Your swing introduction and demonstration were really fantastic and inspirational. I have never seen anyone that can exhibit the golf swing like you and John did. You made it look so simple. The specialty shots shows were tremendous.

The two days lessons learned from you and John are more than what I had learned from the past years. Hope to meet you again and wish you all the best.

I feel very proud and confidence to swing and hit balls now after Philip one-to-one personal coaching. I started 6 months ago with friends at the range, but I am going to no where to hit balls consistently with all the donated and free lessons from friends. I practice as often as I can but to no avail. What I like about Philip teaching techniques and impress with his knowledge of the swing movement is that he taught me a club is just an extension of the hands, I need the move the body correctly during the swing and the club will swing along the correct path to hit the balls—it like the balls in the way of the swing path rather than manipulating the body and the club to hit balls. I wish that I had started the golf swing with Philip 6 months ago -I felt I wasted 6 months of time and money…..

Lastly, I like to thank him and his fellow teaching professionals for the fun and impressive corporate golf clinic at the range they conducted that compel me to sign up lessons to learn the swing to the correctly. Thank to your professionals service.

I like to thank Philip for his personal attention to teach me the golf swing in just 6-lessons. The therapeutic drills and instructions he employed (making many repetitive swing movement) during the training lessons made my learning of the swing much easier. In fact I preferred his indoor training method to outdoor on the range which I had lessons with other pro. I get to hit more balls indoor to master the swing. I gain much more practical swing knowledge from Philip as compared to my previous lessons with other teaching instructors. I also have fun during the lessons. Thank again.

Many thank to Philip’s intensive lessons for helping me to improve my golf shot performances. The most valuable part of the training lessons was how to use and feel the body muscles correctly during the swing execution which I had no ideal despite playing golf for the last 2 years. Philip is an extra-ordinary trainer who teach me how hit balls with eyes closed and also able to feel my swing sensation and movement when I hit the ball solidly.

His lessons on the course on uneven ball lie situations with repeat demonstrations was so simple to hit and airborne the ball and yet conpounded to the fundamental of the swing execution I learnt.

Now that I hit my shots 10 to 20 meters farther and feel better. I cut off 7 strokes in 3 months and feel more inspire to play better golf.

To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing this letter in appreciation to Mr Philip Ang of Asian Golf Centre for the improvement in my golf swing. I had learnt under a teaching pro for 6 lessons for the golf swing. After the 6 lessons and many frustrated practice hours, I worn out a back muscle very badly. Even after all these, I could not even hit the golf ball without topping it.

Upon meeting Philip and his assessment of my golf swing, he explained the problems I had and the reasons for these problems and injuries. With his explanation, I was certain that Philip knows what he is teaching and I decided to sign up for the Foundation Program.

Philip was very detailed and dedicated in his teaching and employed various equipments to aid the lessons. Philip’s instructions and explanations of the muscle actions and body movements in a golf swing were also simple to understand. Apart from the use of video recordings, I like the use of the mirrors best. With the mirrors, I could see my golf swing being reflected as Philip explains the arms and body movements.

It is reassuring to know that I learnt under Philip who demonstrated sound knowledge and understanding of the physiology of the body, coupled with knowledge of sport medicine and injuries, and unsurpassed passion and patience in teaching the golf swing. Philip exhibits traits that my previous teaching pro did not possess. My golf swing has since improved tremendously, hitting the balls straighter and further.

Yours sincerely
Karen Koh

This is a document that would serve to express my satisfaction with Mr Philip Ang of Asia Golf Centre, as a Golf Swing personal trainer.

I contracted Mr Philip Ang’s to be my personal golf trainer because I already had 10 lessons, that is one on one with a Golf Pro. After the 10 lessons I still felt inadequate with handling the Golf clubs, my hands were strained from many missed hits, my back aching from clubs that were forcing me to hold my posture in ways that’s not naturally comfortable. As I was very keen on the Game & having a strong competitive nature I was determined to get a good level of mastery of the Game (like ASAP). I put in hours & baskets after basket of practise balls, but found out that I have no reference on what works for me, & also how to correct & improve my golf swing. So I was practising on all my bad golf swing fundamentals.

Upon meeting up with Mr Philip Ang, he did a quick assessment of my golf swing & pointed out some very glaring mistake & also advise me on the potential injuries that I might inflict on my body if I don’t correct my posturing during my golf swing. After 6 lessons with Mr Philip Ang, I felt very comfortable & confident with my golf swing. Minus the injuries, aches & pains. I was also able to put in proper practice & do simple corrective exercises to improve on my golf swing. Now I am enjoying my golf game more, I am able to play with medium handicapper without feeling incompetent on the golf course. (I’m only a 9-month-old golfer)

What works for me is Mr Philip Ang’s commitment & passion for the golf game & the profession.

Personal Note: We pay for our lessons in one form or other, I don’t have time to learn from my stupid mistakes (trials & errors) & injuries. So paying for proper lessons & enjoying the game is what I got from Mr. Philip Ang.

I am writing this letter to express my sincere appreciation to Mr. Phillip Ang for the improvement of my golf game. I played golf for 5 years and scoring in the low 90’. Since December, Phillip had custom-fitted me with a new set of clubs and I signed up for the ‘Foundation Program’ of his golf lesson to enhance my swing.

My Objective:-
1. To found out the cause and solution to my lower back muscules pain problems with proper posture set-up for the swing.
2. To my improved balance for more solid and consistent hit even on uneven ground.
3. To better understanding of physics of the body co-ordination when executing a swing.
4. In depth comprehension of the set-up, balance and bio-mechanic of the short, mid and long lever swing system.

Results:
After the training program, the most important improvement that I acquired and achieve is the confidence in my swing each time I address my ball during my game. I have no more back pain and I improve my score by 8 to 12 strokes.

Philip employs a very good and simple instructional, demonstration and analysis method (with video play back) throughout his lessons, which allow me to realize the difference of my swing before and after the therapeutic drills and exercises of the programs. I also have a chances see the lessonsI even attended some lessons, which my friends had with other teaching pros., but was surprise how inefficient their lesson’s content was as compared to the three hours therapy I had with Philip.

I like to thank Phillip for his personized attention in my golf-training program and Golfsmith Custom fitted clubs equipment. for my bring my golf game to a higher dimension. I will definitely continue to use Philip in my many years of golf to come and remains,

Yours sincerely,

I walked into Philip’s shop to change my grip on my old set. Philip checked my grip size and was told that my old set grip is too small for me. As we discuss about my grip, we talked about club balance, swing weight, shaft flex, loft angle, I came to realize that Philip knows what he is talking about and is very professional in his management of my golf clubs mistakes. I started to tell him of my golfing problems. I could not achieve a reasonable swing consistently, I had a gap in my golfing distance. Philip informed me that my old set was too long, the grip was too small and my setup posture was incorrect due to the fact that the clubs lie angle have been adjusted before and does not fit me. I then told Philip to make me a set of irons. I spend 3 hours with Philip, as he took my sports history, my golfing history and all the necessary measurement. Philip has chosen and recommended to me O/S Project, I am using the O/S GW Project Model with the filament wound shaft.

As I started playing better and I got my interest in golf back. I also started to play 3 to 4 days of golf consecutively. I found out, on the 3rd day of golfing I got very tired quickly. I then went back to Philip to ask him what he can do about it. Philip then advises me to get a lighter set of O/S project, a lighter head, shaft and grip, change the swing weight to a lighter one. The lighter set to use when I have played consecutively for 3 to 4 days and to use it on the 3rd or 4th of golf. As what Philip suggested to me make a lot of sense and after questioning him on the why and how, I then ahead to make another set of O/S Project model.

As my interest in the game grew, I want to learn more. Again I when to Philip for advise and to learn. Philip than taught me my setup fundamentals, swing fundamentals, course management, chipping putting, how to get out of tight situations in the course. Philip has even taken the trouble to check my sets regularly to make sure that I have not damage my set of clubs. The sales service and extra service that I received from Philip is unsurpassed, a service level impossible to find in any golf shop here in Singapore. As I spend more and more time with Philip I began to realize that Philip services a lot of single handicappers and professional golfers gives very professional advise on their equipment and game. Philip is always ever willing to help and share his knowledge of golf equipment and to teach those who come to him for help in the game of golf. In my most humble opinion, Philip Ang is a true professional and indeed a great help to all golfers who have come to him in times of need.

YOU MAKE MY DREAM DRIVER

I played golf for 5 years. Despite of my physical ability and medical constrain I have tried more than 20 pieces drivers some that I brought other from my golfing friends

Golf was not a very interesting and also became frustration to me because of my poor tee-shot. I had try many lessons and with various teaching pros but resulting fruitless.

Philip, your teaching and clubfitting skill had put together and make me a driver that now that I hit the ball easily 195 to 210 metes carry and roll. Which before I can only achieve 170 to 180 meters to maximum.

Before I was introduce to you I have knowledge that custom fitted club which can make big different. Now that with my dream driver and mastering my short game I had lower my score by 14 strokes.

I like to thank for revitalising my golfing spirit. And I highly respect your profession.

Needless to say you’re my golf “Doctor”.

Thank you once again.

Dear Mr. Paul,

After seeing many Appreciation letters from Philip's satisfied customers and his recently acquired "Distinguished Clubmaker Ward Certificate" I too as a very satisfied customer, feel obliged to feedback on Philip's very high craftsmanship, the quality of work and durability of the Golfsmith products.

I have been golfing for ten years, most of time socially on weekends and to a handicap of 18. This was before I visited Philip in March 1994.

I spoke to him about my game and I asked him what is custom?fitted club about and how it could bring improvement to my game. He quite meticulously measured my grip size, checks my address position swing tempo, and inquired the strong and weak points of my golf game.

He eventually commended:
o Sterling Trophy 18-8 Model adjusted 4 degree flatter because I was not tall.
o HM-30 Superlite shaft (lightest available then), 37.5 inches for #5 iron.
o A much small grip size.
o Two pieces of wood model with 2-degree flatter lie angle.

To my surprise the fitted clubs suited me very well. It was easier to swing, control and lowered my scores by 6 strokes within 4 games. Three of golfing buddies immediately came to see Philip custom fit their clubs. Thereafter I played the best round of golf with a 78 gross.

Carl, it has been nearly 5 Years to date, I am still playing my custom fitted golf set from Philip and I glad to say that there has not a single breakage of any neither shaft nor workmanship problems.

I am considering to made another Philip Ang's fitted set but the Sterling Model are hard to be part from my hands.

Yours Truly,
Mr. Dicky E.S. Tan

MY GOLF DOCTOR

When I meet Philip Ang, I was feeling frustrated with my golf game and was ready to quit.

I started golf like most others, a donated set of club with donated swing advice.

I am right handed but learned to play with ill-fitting left clubs and so my performance started with inconsistency and after 3 years remained inconsistent.

Philip's professional assessment looks at both the golfer's current equipment a swing fundamental. The results of my assessment encouraged another sport like fishing. It was concluded that my clubs were too short. My grip size too small and I should be using right-handed clubs. I then challenged Philip to prove his assessment. After performing various balance and accuracy test using left and right clubs I then proceeded to the range with Philip's borrowed clubs. (He refused to sell me left-handed clubs).

To my surprise, the swing from the right seemed more natural with increased balance and less effort.

Philip corrected my swing fundamentals so I was able to re-build a correct swing from the start.

I am glad I decided to trust Philip and swing with right-handed clubs.

After 2.5 months, I am playing at the same level as before my golf rehabilitation.

Meeting golf professionals with Philip's understanding of club design and body bio-mechanics is rare.

Forever grateful,

Signed happy golfer,
