Golf Lesson Q and A

Why have a lesson, rather than learning the game other ways, such as books, videos, etc.?

Nothing is more effective than one-on-one instruction from a true golfing pro. A great golf game is based on the fundamentals, and our instructors will immediately spot the areas where you need help – along with assisting you in the specific issues with which you continue to struggle. No matter how many videos you watch – and they are valuable – nothing works better than working directly with a skilled golf teacher who sees exactly the problem – within minutes.

I have been playing for years – will that make my habits be more difficult to improve?

Not at all. The one-on-one factor, and the ability to see the difference in results when you correct a bad habit is an inspiration that you will never forget and will use consistently.

I am a beginner – is it worth investing in private golf lessons in Phoenix?

As a new golfer, you want to advance your game as quickly as you can. It is quite incredible to see players who have not been playing golf for years getting better results than more seasoned players – it is not “beginner’s luck,” but the fact that the player invested their time in professional instruction!

Why should I have individual lessons, rather than group lessons?

If you want to accelerate the process, individual lessons are superior. You will have personalized, one-on-one instruction from one of the leading golf teachers in the USA, who will work with you directly. The learning process advances far more swiftly this way – you’ll see immediate results.
