Aidan Power, 24, is a UCC BIS graduate and the founder of PowerThru Golf, a software company that specialises in technology-based solutions for golf clubs. ...An alum of IGNITE, UCC’s business incubation programme, Aidan will be among the talented entrepreneurs spotlighted in the IGNITE UCC Autumn Showcase & Awards this Thursday, Oct. 15. We caught up with Aidan for a quick Q&A! Q: How did the idea for PowerThru Golf originate? A: The idea for the two main features, digital scoring and pace of play management, came to me while playing golf in the summer of 2018. I realised that firstly, there are plenty of scoring apps that allow score documentation for personal use, but very few that allow it for competitions (which is where the club and the golfer can really benefit). Secondly, slow play has become a major issue in golf and is getting worse, at both the amateur and professional level. I realised that tracking players’ locations in the background while they are inputting scores is a very cost-effective way to: a) reduce administration hours; b) manage throughput efficiently; and c) improve the golfer’s experience. As I built these features out, I also began to realise that there is a need for a fully integrated system in golf clubs. Q: What was the greatest lesson you learned from your time on IGNITE? A: The greatest lesson I’ve learned would be that the customer is everything. Getting out and talking to your customer is the most important part of setting up a business because, without customers and without knowing what your customers want, a business cannot, and will not succeed. Q: What are you currently working on with PTG, and what are your future plans for the company? A: I am currently working on securing investment for the company so that we can continue to build out the various features that our software package is comprised of. My future plans for the company are for us to provide golf clubs all over the world with a modern, cloud-based, fully integrated management system and to eventually be the global leader in digital scoring software so that we can eliminate physical scorecards altogether. This will save golf clubs time, money and reduce harm to the environment. Q: If you could give one piece of advice to budding entrepreneurs with an idea, what would it be? A: If you have an idea and you think it has potential, instead of turning to your friends and family for approval, get out there and talk to as many potential customers as possible. If you get enough positive feedback and enough people saying (or even better, agreeing in advance) that they will pay money for your proposed solution, then go and build it! The IGNITE Autumn 2020 Awards & Showcase will take place online this Thursday. For details on how to join, visit: https://www.ucc.ie/en/ignite/

I was hired by the @pgatour who is the owner of these numbers yesterday. He wants his speed back. He’s had some injury troubles and is approaching 40. Getting speed back is usually easier than developing it in the first place with adult players. (It’s easy to gain with juniors and young players). ... This will be a very fun case study. Can’t wait to monitor the progress.

When you have players very evenly matched in golf skill, speed is an advantage. Shorter approach shots = shorter birdie putts.

This arriving in the door felt pretty cool.

Episode 7 of the Fit For Golf Podcast with expert club fitter @liammcd84 Liam works as the Tour Manager for the @titleist fitting department. He knows a lot about getting the most out of golf clubs, and I asked him many questions I’ve seen amateurs often wonder. ... Link in bio.

Left: Me Right: Rory Look at how fast Rory’s backswing is. This was his 190 ball speed swing. About 127mph club head speed. ... I’m working on my technique and going less than full speed in my swing....but look how slow the backswing is . My swing was about 116mph club head speed in this video. When I’m going for max speed, I try to make my backswing as fast as possible and it feels really weird. Probably need to get used to it if I want to get faster. @tourtempo work coming. Go give them a follow!

The lead lat is very important for power production in the golf swing. Here is one of the ways I like to train it. The position & demand is very similar to the golf swing.... My arm is not pulling. It’s pinned to my chest. The turn of my hips and torso makes it move. This works great with the cable machine too. Hold both ends of the rope attachment in one hand, and go light. #GolfStrong

Cable Rotation For Golfers 10 more yards with this rotational strength exercise Can be done at home with a band... 2-4 sets of 5-8 reps each side 2-3 x week I’ve seen a very strong correlation between how strong someone is at this exercise, & their swing speed Strength matters

Thank you to @pfitgolf for the great lesson this morning. If you are near Irvine, CA, I really recommend checking him out. I’ve dropped my handicap from 5.1 to 1.3 since June and his tuition has been a big help. ... Along with some great tips from @jtedscott and @davidbarry59
