Beginner training plan

Your first lessonA beginner golf lesson plan should focus on foundational elements like grip, stance, and posture, along with basic swing mechanics, putting, and chipping. Lessons should also cover golf equipment, etiquette and rules. A good plan will include warm-up, practice, and application of skills, with a focus on building a solid foundation and developing a consistent swing

Lesson 11+Practice Routine (Subsequent Lessons/Practice Sessions) Warm-up (10 minutes): Start with light stretching and practice swings, then warm up with wedges and irons. Long Game Practice (30 minutes): Focus on practicing the full swing with irons and woods. Work on hitting straight shots, fades, and draws (if appropriate). Short Game Practice (20 minutes): Spend time on putting (long and short putts), chipping, and bunker shots (if applicable).

Lesson 4-10Lessons series 1-3 Incl Putting: Begin with the fundamentals of putting, including grip, stance, and aiming. Focus on a pendulum-like swing and smooth stroke. Chipping: Introduce basic chipping techniques for getting the ball onto the green.

Lesson 2-3Lessons 1-3 Grip: Proper grip is crucial. Demonstrate the overlapping, interlocking, or baseball grip, and ensure the club sits comfortably in the hands. Stance and Posture: Explain and demonstrate a balanced stance with feet shoulder-width apart and a slight bend in the knees. Emphasize a relaxed posture with a straight back. Basic Swing Mechanics: Introduce the concept of a circular swing plane, emphasizing a smooth, balanced swing rather than focusing on power.

How it works

Advanced training plan

Your first lessonFor intermediate + golfers, a lesson plan typically focuses on refining existing skills, improving consistency, and developing more advanced strategies for course management and shot shaping. Initial Evaluation: start by assessing the golfer's current strengths and weaknesses through observation and perhaps a brief round or range session.

Lesson 11+Practice plan and follow-up Structured Practice: Develop a personalized practice routine focusing on identified weaknesses and specific drills. Drills and Exercises: Implement drills like the Gate Drill (swing path), Ladder Drill (putting speed), or the Towel Drill (wrist action) to reinforce new skills. Progress Tracking: Regularly monitor key metrics like fairways hit, GIR, putts per round, and scorecards to track progress and adjust goals. Regular Coaching Sessions: Continue with periodic lessons, either in-person or digitally, to refine techniques and address new challenges.

Lesson 4-10Short Game Mastery: Chipping & Pitching: Develop control over trajectory and roll, practicing with various clubs from different lies. Bunker Play: Learn proper technique for escaping bunkers consistently and effectively. Putting: Focus on distance control for long putts (lag putting) and improving consistency on short putts within 3-5 feet. Specialty Shots & Course Situations: Ball Flight Control: Learn to hit fades and draws by adjusting setup and swing path. Trajectory Control: Practice hitting high and low shots by adjusting ball position and clubface angle. Uneven Lies: Address shots from uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies.

Lesson 2-3Full Swing Analysis & Refinement: Fundamentals Review: Revisit grip, stance, and posture, ensuring proper setup as a foundation for improvement. Swing Mechanics: Focus on key elements like swing plane alignment, transition, and weight shift to improve power and accuracy. Impact Dynamics: Develop a clearer understanding of the clubface at impact for solid contact and desired ball flight. Tempo and Rhythm: Work on creating a smooth and consistent tempo throughout the swing.
