Brock Sloan brings a rare equipment industry perspective to golf instruction through his work with Acushnet Company, the parent organization behind Titleist golf balls and clubs and FootJoy footwear — brands that collectively represent some of the most deeply researched and carefully engineered products in the game. His background on the equipment side gives students direct insight into how the physics of ball construction, shaft flex, clubhead design, and fitting interact with individual swing mechanics to either amplify or limit performance. That level of technical understanding of the equipment dimension of the game makes Sloan's instruction particularly valuable for players who are serious about optimizing their setup and want to understand why a properly fitted club produces different results than an off-the-shelf one.
