Jimmy Ballard
Student List
"Every since Jimmy Ballard
and I started working and fixed my back, basically fixed my back. The guy is brilliant. He taught me to
swing with this thing and got the pressure off it. I changed the whole feel of my swing. I hit the ball better
than I've hit it all my life."
Rocco Mediate
PGA Tour Professional
"Since working with Jimmy, I have never hit the ball better in my whole
life. The ball goes to the target."

"I thought I was more of an
upright swinger," Durant explained. "I had really gotten flat and around, and Jimmy, he just kind of took a couple
looks at me and said, hey, let's see you get the club a little more up instead of around. I feel like I'm tracking the club
down a much better plane now. I'm still working on it, got a ways to go, but I'm hitting a lot better shots. It does feel very familiar," Durant said. "I
was getting to the point where I was thinking that my body was starting to hurt. It had never hurt before, but because of
the swings that I had been making, I couldn't keep doing it. It feels pretty good."

Durant PGA Tour Professional
"Ballard has revolutionized the teaching of golf over the last twenty years as much as Ping has the manufacturing
of golf clubs…and he's the only teacher who can explain where the pieces of the golf swing puzzle fit. . ."

"I
don't have any questions about what Jimmy tells me is right or wrong. I'm not ever going to work with anyone but Jimmy on
my game ever again. If I do, I hope somebody shoots me, and puts me out of my misery, because I'll have lost my mind".
Hal Sutton-

"(Jimmy Ballard is) the best teacher in golf. Period."
Peter Jacobsen -
PGA Tour Professional
"I still say Jimmy Ballard is without a doubt the finest teacher in the game. He certainly kept me out
on Tour longer than I ever would have been otherwise."
