Top 14 Tips for Selecting A Golf School
With the increase in number of schools for learning Golf,
it has become necessary for the learner to find out a
school that suits him best from all the angles. Here are
the tips for selecting a Golf School: 1. When the institute was established and how many members
they have. Since when they are into coaching. 2. What type of golf course they have? Is it 18 holes, 22
holes, 27 holes or more? 3. Do they organize tournaments regularly (a lot of
learning is possible by the learner by simply watching good
players)? 4. The school should have sound credentials. If possible,
find out from other sources about the claims they make. 5. Try to get the record of accomplishment of the schools
by talking to people who either are learning there or have
completed the training and now practicing there or
elsewhere. 6. Get details from other such schools, make your own
assessment/comparison and decide. If a school offers any
guarantee, the same should be crosschecked with schools. 7. Find out the details of the program they have for the
learners. What methodology they follow in coaching the
students. 8. How many students have completed their training and
where they are. Have they trained/produced
national/international golfers? 9. What kind of facilities they have? Do they have the
facility to learn Uphill, Downhill, Side hill, Sand and
trouble shots? 10. Can one learn all types of shots during training or
some shots they do not teach during training? 11. Do they have separate ground for training? 12. What type of facilities for learning/improving the
Swing. Do they have a Video that can analyze the swing? If
yes, it will be better because one can learn by seeing his
shots on the video and find out where and what is wrong in
it. You can improve/ accelerate your learning curve by
watching and practicing. 13. Do they customize the trai
zning program according to the
needs / skills of the individual or these are common to
all. This may be very crucial in deciding as one would
always like to have a tailor made learning package so that
he can get best out of the training. 14. Do they have covered ground for learning, this is
important because if it rains continuously for days
together one may lose his training time resulting into loss
of total training days/hours? Follow these tips, and selecting the right golf school
becomes a no brainer. Bud Bradley is a freelance writer, working long hours at a
