Question : Why take private lessons?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Private instruction is the fastest way to improve your game.\u00a0 \u00a0Our team of professionals is well versed in helping players of all skill levels.\u00a0 \u00a0We can help tailor your experience to best suit your needs.<\/p>\n

Question : I’m new to the game, are private lessons right for me?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Absolutely!\u00a0 Our team can help you get started with the right foundation of fundamentals.\u00a0 Be warned that learning the game on your own and then trying to fix ‘bad habits’ can be very difficult in the long run.\u00a0 \u00a0Be sure to see our team to ensure you start off on the right foot.<\/p>\n

Question : How many lessons do I need?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Great question!\u00a0 \u00a0Usually a single lesson is best for diagnosing an ongoing singular problem with your game.\u00a0 For example, a slice, a shank, three-putting, or chunking a small chip shot.\u00a0 \u00a0Single lessons are also good for learning a brand new skill such as a new shot shape or learning a new club.\u00a0 \u00a0A package of lessons can be used in a variety of ways.\u00a0 \u00a0It may take 3 lessons to completely cure a slice, shank, or chunk.\u00a0 In this situation the 2nd and 3rd lesson are used for feedback on assumed practice that occurs between lessons.\u00a0 A package of lessons could also be used to learn the first few key aspects of the game if you were a beginner.\u00a0 \u00a0In this case we would focus on broader topics such as full swing, chipping, and putting.\u00a0 \u00a0The lessons would be less technical but would establish a ground work that beginners and new players could start their journey with.\u00a0 \u00a0At it’s core, a package of lessons can be used by the golfer in any way that they can think of.<\/p>\n

Question : Who do I take my lesson with?<\/strong><\/p>\n

All 4 of our PGA Professionals offer unique experiences however you won’t make a mistake by choosing one of us over another.\u00a0 \u00a0Take the time to read our bio’s and that may help you find a commonality.\u00a0 \u00a0You may value the experience of the instructor, you may value the skill the instructor has as a player, you might also be looking for a price point that suits your needs.\u00a0 \u00a0However you choose the instructor, you will have the pleasure of a great experience with high end technology.\u00a0 \u00a0Practice what you learn and you will improve your golf game.<\/p>\n
