Beginner training plan
Your first lessonLesson 1: Grip
• Objective: Introduce the proper grip to control the club and make solid contact.
• Instruction:
• Teach the basic grip types: interlock, overlap, and ten-finger (baseball grip).
• Emphasize hand positioning and grip pressure—light but firm.
• Demonstrate how a proper grip helps with clubface control.
• Practice: Use a short iron or wedge, focusing on short chip shots with a goal of 10-15 yards to get comfortable with the grip.
Lesson 2-3Lesson 2: Setup
• Objective: Establish a consistent and balanced setup.
• Instruction:
• Teach the basics of stance: feet shoulder-width apart, slight knee flex, and bending at the hips.
• Explain ball position in relation to different clubs (shorter irons have the ball in the center; longer clubs slightly forward).
• Highlight the importance of aligning the shoulders, hips, and feet parallel to the target.
• Practice: Continue with 10-15 yard shots while focusing on repeating the proper setup before each shot.
Lesson 3: Balance
• Objective: Build an understanding of how balance affects the swing.
• Instruction:
• Teach weight distribution: even weight between both feet, with a little more on the balls of the feet.
• Emphasize maintaining balance during the swing and finishing with weight on the lead foot.
• Use drills to reinforce staying balanced throughout the motion.
• Practice: Gradually increase hitting distance while maintaining focus on grip, setup, and balance for consistent, controlled shots.
