Jim McLean Golf Center By Mariano Bartolome

Introduction: The Jim Mclean Golf Center By Mariano Bartolome is located on the 19th floor of the J.W. Marriott Marquis in downtown Miami. We are an indoor golf teaching facility, which takes advantage of technology, in order to analyze putting and swings. In our putting studio, we use TOMI system to get every piece of information necessary, in order to improve the player's putting skills; we analyze it and review it frame by frame with our slow-motion cameras and equipment. The results will show on the putting stroke with a report of the alignment at address and impact, path at impact and rotation, impact spot, shaft angle and stroke tempo, to say the least. This data is extremely important since 40% of the game is based on putting, and it would make a remarkable difference in the student's game. In the teaching bay, we have the swing analysis room, in which we can record the player's swing in slow motion and compare it frame by frame to a professional player. This will allow the instructor to help the student visualize the posture and positioning of the club, in order to improve their game. All of this information can be saved on a CD for the player's records, or it can be sent via e-mail. In our third room, we have our HD simulator, in which a student can play in over 20 different PGA-certified golf courses, in over 50 par 3 with different distances; they can play tournaments with up to 4 players, games, club fittings, closest to the pin contests, and more. Every golf course on the simulator takes into account the altitude of each course, to ensure the closest similarity to the actual course. Our simulator sensors and equipment can also give you every shot distance, speed and much more useful information for each student. All of this is accompanied by our amazing view of the 19th floor of the state-of-the-art facility in the J.W. Marriott Marquis, facing Brickell Bay.
