One-on-One Golf Lessons

Private lessons give you the individual attention you need once you learn the basics. A small adjustment in the stance, grip or posture can make a big difference in the trajectory of the ball. With one-on-one instruction, we can focus on changes you need to make to achieve distance and accuracy.

Group Lessons

Group lessons are less expensive than private lessons, and beginners can learn the basic grip, setup and swing in a group setting. Some people find it comfortable and motivating to learn with others of a similar level. As an added bonus, group lessons can introduce you to other golfers who might become your golfing partners when you are

ready to try out your newly learned golf skills on the course.

Rules of Golf & Golf Etiquette

Golf is a traditional game, and there are many rules a player needs to know to behave correctly on the golf course. Lessons can include the basics rules of golf and golf etiquette. We teach the beginner about such issues as playing the ball where it lies and conditions when it is appropriate to move the ball; keeping up with the pace of play; preventing distractions on the golf course; and golf cart etiquette, including “cart path only” and “90-degree” rules.

Golf Equipment Advice

When it is time to buy clubs, the pro can make recommendations about the types of clubs to buy and the features to look for. For example, beginners with a slow swing speed can benefit from a flexible shaft, large clubface and higher lofted clubs. We might recommend that new players use a 3-wood off the tee instead of a driver, and use

higher lofted fairway woods. We often suggest using hybrid clubs instead of long irons such as the 3-iron and 4-iron because they are designed to launch the ball easily and allow for distance and accuracy.
