DuPriest said he has worked with many
junior golfers, including Duke University
player Steven DeLisio of Swampscott
and Phillips Exeter Academy, and North
Andover’s Nick Antonelli, who played on
the Canadian Tour and is now on the
staff at Atkinson Resort and Country
Club in New Hampshire.
Somerville native DuPriest earned a
bachelor’s degree in exercise physiology
from UMass-Lowell and previously
owned and operated the only FitGolf
center in Massachusetts at this same
site. He said he’s a longtime golfer:
“My mom has a picture of me in
diapers, swinging a golf club. I started
really young.” The 45-year-old North
Reading resident tries to play at least
once a week, even if it means teeing it
up at 5 a.m. at Unicorn. He’s a past
winner of the Winchester Father &
Son Invitational and currently carries
a 10 handicap.
DuPriest and Lane both observe that
this reporter, while standing, puts most
of his weight on his left leg. Not good,
they say. “I watch people all the time,
even when I’m not working,” said
DuPriest, “and I think, ‘I can help
him or her.’”
Lane laughed. “I do the same thing
when I teach. On the range I can look
at someone and say ‘He’s got a problem
with his hip.’ You shouldn’t hurt when
you golf or when you’re done.”
“A good foundation and a good stable
base is paramount,” added DuPriest.
“If you can’t do that, the body can’t do
what you want it to.
“The king of swing is the glutes. The
queen of swing is the core. If you don’t
have the king or the queen, you have a
couple of jokers.” l
