AthletiCo’s Golf Performance Center Uses Revolutionary K-Vest to Improve Golf Game!

AthletiCo’s Golf Performance Center in Oak Brook proudly uses the innovative K-Vest to improve the game for professional and amateur golfers.  The K-Vest is a wireless motion analysis and training system developed by Bentley Kinetics, a leader in kinetic motion analysis.  First introduced at the 2006 PGA Merchandise Show, the K-Vest has since garnered much attention from top-level golf instructors including David Leadbetter, one of today’s most well-known and effective golf teaching professionals.

The technology behind the K-Vest is a three-sensor wireless system that strategically places sensors on a golfer’s hips, shoulders, and hand to measure motion during a golf swing.  The sensors immediately communicate to a computer a 3D analysis.  This analysis allows the instructor to instantly address critical aspects of a golfer’s body such as hip rotation, speed, sequence and timing.

The Golf Performance Center began using the K-Vest in 2005 and remains one of the limited number of facilities to use this type of instructional technology.  AthletiCo’s Golf Specialists Sam McKenney and Cory Puyear are two of only five K-Vest instructors in Illinois.

The uniqueness of our 3D system is that it is portable. We can arrange to come to any facility in the world with minimal effort.  We will work with your golf professional by appointment only to capture and analyze your body three dimensionally.  Once we have collected the necessary data we will sit down with you and your instructor to map out the appropriate physical steps to take in order to maximize your practice time and constantly improve your swing.
