ProStance : the most balanced argument yet for the optimum swing…
August 21st, 2008 | Biomechanics Consultancy, Education, Golf Biomechanics, Putting Biomechanics, Quintic Video SoftwareQuintic Consultancy Ltd is proud to be apart of the latest golf training aid to hit the market! ProStance is based on many years of biomechanical research carried out at Quintic.
Good balance is essential to powerful and consistent golf shots, putts, chips, and full swings. The human body makes compensations both at address and during the swing to give us the impression we are in balance. Biomechanical research carried out at Quintic has found that as golfers, we don’t always know where our weight is truly positioned! We may think that are weight is distributed evenly and ready to hit the golf ball, however, it isn’t until we use biomechanical analyse, in particular force platforms that the true answer is revealed. Even some of the world’s best golfers think they are doing one thing, but actually are doing something else.
The ProStance is borne out many years data collection, research, coaching experiences and ultimately feedback from golfers and coaches at all levels about the product. Research into putting and full swing biomechanics has highlighted the need for the golfer to be stable at address and dynamically balanced during the swing. The ProStance is the latest training aid to enable to golfer to help achieve this. It is simple to use, yet the results are instant and the benefits are a more consistent and powerful strike.
Dr Paul Hurrion MD of Quintic Consultancy, now brings to the consumer coaching aids market the ProStance ™ balance aid, and as one might expect, it’s a winner! ProStance is a product that forces you to become very aware of balance, it’s simple, reliable and supremely efficient.
A key collaborator with Hurrion on perfecting the ProStance is teaching pro Stewart Craig. The two professionals are prefect foils for each other in this. Hurrion’s podiatric work with companies like Hi-Tec and Titleist Performance Institute highlighted the need for ProStance in the first place. Craig’s daily contact with club and county players helped provide a working template that would fit into the training settings of every golfer. The perspective that most pros look at a student’s swing invariably from the waist up was the key to ensuring the benefits of ProStance were not just meaningful to golfers at Tour standard, but to commonplace technique needs as well.
“In my experience the majority of coaching professionals address faults with compensations, explains Craig. However, most of the root problems in the golf swing are due to static or dynamic balance issues. What happens below the waist causes the problems above the waist.”
With the intellectual ability of the partnership now making a real difference to the development of the ProStance, it still took several years to bring to market-readiness. The final results are for every golfer to try and use on a daily basis.
Enjoy the ProStance. A consistent, powerful golf swing starts with a stable set-up and dynamic balance during the swing. ProStance gives you instant feedback during every swing.

“I first met Dr Paul Hurrion in 2005 and have unquestionable belief in his ability as a putting coach. The ProStance encompasses a lot of his principles and teachings in a training aid. Without the correct balance, your putting mechanics are a series of compensatory movement. Manipulation of the club head does not stand up to pressure… “
Philip Archer
“The importance of balance in golf is often underestimated. The research of Dr Paul Hurrion (and Stewart Craig) highlights the influence that balance has on reducing compensatory swing adjustments in turn producing more consistency and power for the golfer. The ProStance enables the golfer to establish and feel the correct balance both at address and throughout the golf swing in every area of the game. This training aid is a must for those who want to seriously improve their game.”
