Lesson Combination (2 x 1 Hour Lesson and 9 Hole Playing Lesson.)

Description

2 x 1 hour Lessons and a 9 hole Playing lesson.

Lesson Procedure

A 1-hour golf lesson includes a focused session with instructor Wayne. Aimed at improving specific areas of your game. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Warm-Up and Assessment: Let’s start with a brief warm-up to get you comfortable, followed by an assessment of your current skill level, swing mechanics, grip, stance, and posture.

2. Focus on Key Areas: Based on the assessment, we will then focus on a specific part of your game, such as:

   • Driving: Improve your stance, swing, and follow-through for distance and accuracy.
   • Short Game: Practice chipping, pitching, and bunker shots.
   • Putting: Work on alignment, speed, and reading the greens.
   • Swing Mechanics: Correct any flaws in your swing, such as your grip, backswing, or tempo.

3. Use of Technology:  Video analysis or other tools to provide visual feedback and track your progress.

4. Drills and Practice: You’ll work on specific drills designed to reinforce the key points of the lesson, customised to target your weaknesses.

5. Feedback and Next Steps: At the end of the session,  I will give you feedback on your progress, suggest areas for improvement, and recommend drills to practice on your own.

Structure of a 9-Hole Playing Lesson:

1. Pre-Round Warm-Up:

   • The lesson may begin with a short warm-up session where you can practice your swing, putting, or chipping. 

2. Course Management:

   • Throughout the round, I will teach you how to manage the course better. This includes:
     • Club selection: Choosing the right club for each shot based on distance, wind, and lie.
     • Shot strategy: Deciding where to aim and how to play each hole depending on hazards, slopes, and the pin position.
     • Risk vs. Reward: Learning when to play conservatively and when to take risks.

3. Real-Time Feedback:

   • As you play each hole, I will provide live feedback on your swing mechanics, stance, alignment, and mental approach.
   • They might give suggestions on:
     • Driving off the tee: Improving distance and accuracy.
     • Iron play: Working on ball striking and approach shots.
     • Short game: Tips on chipping, pitching, and bunker play around the greens.
     • Putting: Reading greens, controlling distance, and improving your putting stroke.

4. Mental Game:

   • Wayne may help you develop a stronger mental approach to the game, teaching you how to stay focused, relaxed, and confident, even after poor shots.

5. Post-Round Review:

   • After the 9 holes, we will have a brief review of the round, discussing what went well and areas that need improvement.
   • I may give you practice drills or strategies to focus on before your next round.

Key Benefits:

• Practical Experience: Unlike a driving range lesson, a playing lesson helps you learn in real-game situations.
• Tailored Advice: You get personalized feedback that addresses your performance under real course conditions.
• Improved Decision Making: You'll learn strategies for better shot selection and overall course management.

Is there a specific part of your game you’d want to focus on during a 9-hole playing lesson, like driving, short game, or mental approach?
