About the Coach (Robin Symes): Originally from Northern Ireland, Robin has been involved with the game of golf for over 25 years. As an amateur golfer, Robin won at all levels, county, national, and international. Most notably, Robin was instrumental in helping Ireland to win the European Team Championship – also representing Great Britain & Ireland. Following his amateur career, Robin pursed his Professional career playing in mini tours and regional tours with invitations on the European Tour. While competing, Robin was achieving his PGA Class A status, and it was during this time he developed a great interest in teaching. This passion to teach lead him to begin his new career in 2003, working for David Leadbetter in England, and in 2006, transferring to a newly opened David Leadbetter Academy in South Korea, in which he spent 3 years as Senior Instructor. In 2009, Robin opened his own academy, IGI “International Golf Institute” and has become a regular instructor for Golf Digest. If you haven’t heard of Robin yet, you have most likely heard of a few of the world class professionals that he provides instruction and consultation to. The 2012 U.S. Women’s Open Champion, NaYeon Choi, is just one of the many talented tour pros that have been working with Robin for several years now. While Robin’s main clients are aspiring tour professional, he also loves helping all levels of players. Complete Golf Coach goal is just that, a tool to pass Robin’s teaching on to players from anywhere in the world, helping them improve and increase their enjoyment of the game. Notable players Robin has worked with include: • NaYeon Choi– LPGA (2012 US Open Champion) • HaNeul Kim – KLPGA/JLPGA (JLPGA money list winner) • SangMoon Bae – PGA Tour • Jennifer Song – LPGA (US Amatuer & Public Links Champion 2009) • MiJung Hur – LPGA • Michael Hoey – European Tour

GIVE THOSE RANGE BALLS A PURPOSE! Your practice partner that won't laugh at your shanks (that's what friends are for)! Ever find yourself at the range, mindlessly burning through a bucket of balls while scrolling through midnight YouTube golf tips? Yeah, we've been there. CORE Golf is the practice companion for golfers ready to graduate from the "hit and hope" method. What makes CORE different? - Structured practice plans that make more sense than your current strategy of "hit until frustrated" - Easy-to-follow performance drills that actually have a purpose - Progress tracking that's more reliable than your buddy's "yeah, that looked better" - Practice schedules that fit your real life (because we know you're sneaking out to the range during lunch) Perfect for: - 10-20 handicappers who know just enough to be dangerous - Golfers who want to stop treating the range like a buffet (all you can "hit" while you're there) - Players whose bag has more alignment sticks than actual clubs - Anyone who's ever blamed their clubs, the wind, or the ball for their misses Not another golf app promising miraculous results – CORE helps you structure your practice time so you can stop randomly flailing at balls and start making actual progress. Because throwing your club in the lake isn't a practice plan. Download now and transform from "random ball whacker" to "purposeful practice person" (we're still working on the name). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Payment: Payment will be charged to iTunes Account at confirmation of purchase.
