Basic Training

photo credit: shibuya246   You should know what to expect from a good lesson program.  Since every program is different, there are a few guidelines that you should follow in order to judge the quality of the program you are in.

Your first lesson should begin with the use of short irons.  A good teacher won’t start you off hitting mid or long irons since they are much harder to hit.  A quality instructor wants their student to build confidence and that can’t be done with mid or long irons.  Also, if you are asked to hit more than 2 or 3 clubs during any lesson, it’s time to look for “greener pastures.”

Be  judgemental when picking a golf instructor, after all,  you’re the one footing the bill !
