I’ve often been asked, “What do you get out of a golf course playing lesson and is it worth it?”  My response to that is, it’s more important than having three or four lessons just on the driving range.  If you’re struggling to improve your scores and don’t understand why they’re not budging, then by having myself evaluate your on course performance can make a huge difference in improving your scores.

When I have a playing lesson with one of my students, I keep track of their stats.

I want to know if on each hole they miss the fairway, whether there is a pattern to where they miss?  If they miss the green, did they short side themselves, making it more difficult to get up and down?  Are they three putting because the proximity to the hole isn’t close when they do hit the green?

My goal is to make you an independent, confident problem solver. You will learn to trust yourself because you’ll trust your plan, drills, routines and techniques in a fundamental way that I teach you. Truth be told, your routines are your true teachers, but they are only as effective as you allow them to be. Learn to train smart and how to develop DISCIPLINE and mental toughness with your plan, body and emotions.
