Initial Golf Evaluation

Golf Skill Evaluation

Not Sure Where to Start? Begin with an Evaluation

The fastest way to improve is to understand what’s actually holding your game back. At Edge Golf Performance, we offer two evaluation options depending on your experience level, goals, and commitment to improvement.

Whether you’re looking to sharpen scoring skills or take a deeper dive into how your body and swing produce the golf ball, we’ll point you toward the evaluation that makes the most sense for your game.

Golf Skill Evaluation

Best for: Golfers of all skill levels looking to understand strengths, weaknesses, and scoring opportunities

Duration: 90 minutes

This evaluation takes a thorough, on-course–relevant look at your current golf skills across all major scoring categories. The focus is on what you can do, not just how your swing looks.

What’s included:

  • Putting
    Performance measured on an 18-hole putting course
  • Chipping
    Shot selection, execution, and consistency around the green
  • Finesse Wedges
    Performance from 40–70 yards
  • Approach Play
    Performance from a selected approach distance based on the length of courses you typically play
  • Driving
    Club speed, distance, and dispersion
  • Ball Flight Patterns
    With both a 7-iron and driver

What you’ll receive:

  • A written summary outlining performance in each area
  • An estimated handicap range for each skill category
  • Clear recommendations for coaching or training options that best align with your goals

Ideal if you want to:

  • Lower scores
  • Improve short game and consistency
  • Understand where strokes are being lost
  • Get guidance before committing to coaching or practice programs

Performance Diagnostic

Best for: Serious, committed golfers (typically ~12 handicap or better) looking for a deeper, data-driven understanding of their swing and performance

All Performance Diagnostics are conducted directly by Paul Maurer or the Director of Coaching, ensuring the evaluation, interpretation, and recommendations are grounded in extensive coaching experience and advanced performance analysis.

This is not a basic swing check. It’s a comprehensive look at how your body moves, how you generate speed and control the club, and why your ball flight behaves the way it does.

What’s included:

  • Swing Catalyst
    Ground reaction forces, pressure patterns, and sequencing
  • SportsBox AI
    Full-body motion capture and swing pattern analysis
  • HackMotion
    Wrist structures and delivery patterns
  • TrackMan & Video
    Ball flight, strike, face/path relationships
  • Setup and movement analysis tailored to your physical capabilities

What you’ll receive:

  • A complete performance profile of your golf swing
  • Identification of key constraints limiting improvement
  • Clear priorities for training, lessons, and practice
  • A roadmap for ongoing coaching or structured training

Ideal if you want to:

  • Understand the why behind your swing tendencies
  • Stop chasing random fixes
  • Train more efficiently and intentionally
  • Commit to a long-term improvement plan

Which Evaluation Is Right for You?

  • Choose the Golf Skill Evaluation if your primary goal is to improve scoring, sharpen your short game, and gain clarity on your overall skill set.
  • Choose the Performance Diagnostic if you are a committed golfer seeking a deeper, technology-driven analysis of your swing and movement patterns.

If you’re unsure which option is the best fit, our team is happy to help guide you to the right starting point.
