The implementation of the SNAG curriculum
affirms the following core values which the game of golf embodies: Discipline,
Etiquette, Honesty, Integrity, Patience, Respect, Self Control, Persistence and
Team work. However, the SNAG curriculum
has it own simplified rules and terminology that adds fun to the learning and
playing experience. SNAG allow for full
shots, pitching, chipping and putting.
SNAG
has only two clubs: the Launcher is used to launch, pitch and chip the
ball. Like a putter the Roller is used to roll the ball toward the target. All shots other than rolling (putting) are
played off of a mat and tee called the Launch Pad. This ensures that the player
will have an optimal lie every time. The
target, called a Flagsticky also differs from anything else in golf, as it is not a hole with a cup
inside, but rather an above—ground weighted cylinder covered with a hook
material. The SNAG Ball is slightly smaller than a tennis ball
and is covered with a loop material.
Unlike golf, where you finish by putting your ball into the cup, in SNAG
you finish by sticking you ball to the Flagsticky. Because of the mobile Launch Pad and Flagsticky, SNAG is portable and playable just about anywhere.
SNAG is a
comprehensive system that has been developed through years of research and
field experience. The key is in
simplifying the instruction so that it can be an effective transition into the
game of golf. To help put a better
visual with this curriculum I ask that you please go to
