Here, his coaches give advanced putting instruction, enabled by the Zen’s unique ability to recreate the reality of the golf course precisely.<br>The Zen Master program highlights the work which elite golf coaches are now delivering on Zen’s adjustable playing surfaces. It acts as a communications channel where they describe how they fully exploit Zen’s precise gradients and Tour-quality playing surfaces to learn more about their pupils’ abilities, and to give better instruction.<br>From the world of full-swing golf, experts such as <strong>Dr Scott Lynn</strong> and <strong>Liam Mucklow, </strong>Swing Catalyst ambassadors and ground reaction forces specialists, have become Zen Master ambassadors to show how deeper insights can be gained when shots are played from a gradient. Both use the Zen Swing Stage adjustable playing surface with the exclusive combination of Swing Catalyst technology, the industry’s gold standard.<br><strong>Daniel Gray,</strong> Head of Coaching at Lake Nona Golf & Country Club in Orlando, has also become a Zen Master, with both Green Stage and Swing Stage at his disposal in The Workshop there, twinned with Trackman, Swing Catalyst and Science & Motion technology.<br>Zen Master <strong>Dylan Ross</strong> at Golfusion in West Palm Beach, Florida features Zen Swing Stage and Green Stage twinned with Trackman iO and Sam PuttLab at his advanced performance coaching facility.<br>And, also from the world of putting, <strong>Preston Combs</strong> –named recently in Golf Digest’s Best Young Teachers in America 2025/26 – has joined the Zen Master program after working extensively with the Zen team to optimize his use of the Zen Green Stage with Quintic technology in his Orlando facility.<br>The world-class methods employed by these Zen Masters demonstrate, every day, Zen’s ability to deliver products for coaches and elite players, thereby producing better data, and delivering accuracy and reliability.<br>“In golf it is clearly now ‘time to move’, and nobody moves a Zen Stage better than our incredible Zen Master ambassadors” said <strong>Andy Hiseman,</strong> Global VP Sales & Marketing at Zen Golf. “We are truly blessed to have coaches of this calibre backing Zen technology, and we will be making further announcements as more elite names join our program in 2025.”<br>Phil Kenyon said: “With Zen, I can recreate the exact playing environment — especially compound breaks. Without a doubt, Zen has been the best investment I’ve ever made.”<br>Dr Scott Lynn is among the foremost experts on ground reaction forces in the golf swing. He said: “People always ask me: how can I change the forces from the ground to change the numbers in the swing? Of all the tools I’ve previously used, nothing changes the numbers like the Zen Swing Stage does in one single shot.”<br>Liam Mucklow, founder of The Golf Lab with over 1,000 certified professionals around the world, said: “Golf is rarely played on flat ground. With the Zen Swing Stage we can better understand how players adapt to different slopes, and can identify why some players thrive under pressure and why others struggle.”<br>Preston Combs said: “With Green Stage, I can quickly identify exactly what each player needs to focus on. By rapidly alternating between slopes I can accurately measure dispersion, allowing me to deliver a highly personalized and effective session.”<br>Daniel Gray said: “Changing shot shapes and forces application on the Zen Swing Stage is a great new tool for helping players understand how to use the ground to create desired shot patterns.”<br>Dylan Ross said: “With Zen Swing Stage and Trackman iO, I can now bring the true challenges of the golf course to life – the ones that keep golfers awake at night!”<br>“Come along to the <strong>Zen Golf</strong> booth ETC13 at <strong>the PGA Show</strong> in Orlando, 22-24 January 2025,” concludes Andy Hiseman, “and join us to find out what these ambassadors of coaching have found so captivating about Zen Golf’s advanced coaching products.
