Beginner training plan
Your first lessonThe first lesson is all about information gathering. I never try to influence someone on their swing until I have enough time to analyze their mechanics combined with what they are trying to accomplish. In my opinion, understanding what the student wants to do, influence the mechanics and the way I will instruct them. Everyone is unique, I treat them that way. Unless it is a one off, and the student needs a quick fix for a golf out they are playing in the next day. If that is the case, I do provide emergency fix services.
Lesson 11+After 11 sessions, a beginner will be equipped to self-diagnose their issues. They will have absorbed enough knowledge about their own swing mechanics and their weaknesses. They will also have the ability to control their emotions better due to an understanding of the nature of the game verses just hitting balls. They will know that poor shits happen, they happen to everyone, and they won’t be caught up trying to figure out why, because the routine I have instilled in them will allow them to reset, let go of the past, and focus on executing their next move.
Lesson 4-10Lessons 6-8 are usually the toughest because the beginner now knows what they are capable of and expects it. However, without the experience and the understanding of the game yet, it can be very frustrating to them. That’s why I say I coach them through this point, not necessarily teach them.
Lesson 2-3A beginner taking their 2nd and 3rd lesson should expect massive growth. This is the exciting time for a beginner. Usually around the 6th or 7th lesson there will be some frustration because they will have gained more knowledge than they can really absorb. It’s a process and the most important thing is that I am there to guide them through the process of what to expect on their journey.
