Beginner training plan
Your first lessonThe first lesson is chip, pitch, putt* maybe 3/4 swing with the proper setup. If you want to skip this because you CAN hit a driver 175 yards min, chip 10 balls 30 ft away to 3ft or less feet from hole AND make five 3 ft putts in a row then that would be a good test if you're ready for the golf course. Then go to package #2. We don't talk about nonsense movements i.e. weight shift, wrist cock nonsense, and all the other hard timing PGA instruction that is very hard and time consuming for most. I recommend you check some or ALL of Jim Venetos videos out on YouTube. My personality and tone is just like Jim's Venetos . I don't do range testing. Range lessons are terrible for golf instruction, waste of money that could be used on greens fees, the range is not set up for all the obstacles you will be challenged with on the golf course. * The actual field you should be practicing on is a golf course. I recommend the first package #2 on course lesson you being only three clubs 3Wood, a wedge 9 iron, that you can hit 25-110 yards and putter * you can turn a 9iron into a wedge that's it!
Lesson 2-3Your back for more! Great. Hopefully practicing pitches/wedges and short no more than half swings for at least 3 weeks. Now let's go to the golf course. The cost of greens fees will be your cost responsibility- I will walk or ride 9 holes with you. We will be using two- three clubs wedge, putter and club that one you hit at least 170+ yards. I recommend the seven spring little course very small course under 7,000 yards * evening hours are great. On the course- focus on setup again, ball flight direction with obstacles, ball positioning, ball placement strategy, how to setup scorecard up for mental win, analysing your misses, go to stock shots, can you correct your swing on the course? Hopefully you videoed yourself 5min continuous-face on where I can review the misses. We can skip more short shorts, chips and pitches with wedge or 9iron (this needs to be nailed down) Focus on the other game on the ground. Putting. Which is a separate position and a game on the ground- rolling golf ball..Remember the golf ball range is not the same as an actual course. The more you put yourself in different situations with this swing - uphills, downhill, rough, fairway bunker, thick rough, poor lies and more the confidence and correcting mistakes works. * Vs a range mat and a perfect lie does nothing in the run. After all we are here to play the game of golf not the sport of range golf ball hitting.
