Meet Russel, a Golf Coach in Frisco, Texas.
I’m a PGA member and have been teaching golf to men, women, and juniors for over 40 years so I have some great teaching experience. In working with beginners I usually stress the basic fundamentals of grip, alignment, and stance for the first couples of lessons as well as getting the students a feel for how to swing the club. A very important part of learning the game is to go out on the course to see how everything works on the course. We will try to do that in several lessons.

Meet Carlos, a Golf Coach in Frisco, Texas.
Growing up, I never expected to develop a deep love for golf, but in 1996, everything changed when I witnessed Tiger Woods' remarkable ascent in professional golf. His skill, determination, and sheer passion for the game captivated me from the start. Following his journey inspired not just my admiration for his athletic prowess but also his resilience and unwavering dedication to the sport. Since then, golf has profoundly enriched my life in countless ways. It has taught me invaluable lessons in patience, precision, and the pursuit of continuous improvement. The physical exercise and time spent outdoors have significantly enhanced my overall well-being. Moreover, golf has connected me with a vibrant community of like-minded individuals, fostering enduring friendships and providing enriching experiences that I cherish deeply.

My journey in golf began at the age of 7, leading me to join the PGA in 1984 and embark on a professional career with the PGA of America. While financial constraints halted my tour aspirations, I thrived in various North Texas PGA tournaments after acing my PAT test in 1995. Transitioning to teaching in 1986, I honed my craft across esteemed clubs like the Golf Club of Jacksonville and Twin Creeks Golf Club, eventually serving as an instructor at Thorntree Country Club from 2015 to 2017, guiding new members into the intricacies of the game.

I have helped students drop over 100 strokes. I was recognized by PGA of America in 2023 for how much I have grown the game and helped players improve. I received the Player Development Professional award for North Texas PGA Section in 2024. I am an author for Avid Golfer Magazines instruction articles. I grew up attending the Jim McLean full time golf academy in Fort Worth and practicing alongside Jason Day and competing against Scottie Scheffler while traveling all over the country playing in the top junior tournaments and then went on to play college golf on a full ride scholarship and finished All American. I spent numerous hours throughout the years shadowing Jim McLean, Butch Harmon, Lanny Bassham, Olympic gold medalist for the psychology side of golf and many other top instructors in the world. Always thought I wanted to play professionally but realized I did not like being gone for extended periods of time enough and always had a passion for helping others through teaching and golf fitness. I love teaching and helping others, it is my passion. I adjust to the player and do not teach a one swing fits all method; I believe it is important to build a swing around the ways the student moves best.

Meet Ryan, a Golf Coach in Frisco, Texas.
Hi I’m Ryan and I’m 26 years old. As someone who has been playing golf since I could hold a club, I have a deep love and appreciation for the sport. I honed my skills through lessons and camps at my local club, eventually going on to compete in multiple state championships in Texas during high school. While I still enjoy playing competitively, my true passion lies in introducing new people to the game and helping them improve their skills, whether through range or playing lessons. Nothing brings me more joy than seeing someone fall in love with golf the way I have.

Meet Zach, a Golf Coach in Frisco, Texas.
I played college baseball and then coached little league baseball for over four years, which helped me learn how to communicate effectively in a coaching setting. I picked up golf just over four years ago, and in that time, I was able to go from a 35 handicap down to a 7.9. I recently started coaching two clients, one 6-year-old and one 24-year-old, and we have found success in making the game more fun for them while also helping them become more consistent in their gameplay.

4 Stages of Golf, Tennis, and Pickleball Skill Development Explained
8 min read
Learning any skill involves progressing through 4 stages: 1. Unconscious Incompetence: You don’t know what you don’t know. 2. Conscious Incompetence: You realize your gaps and start learning. 3. Conscious Competence: You can perform the skill but need focus. 4. Unconscious Competence: The skill becomes second nature. This model helps you identify where you are in the process and how to move forward. For example, frustration in Stage 2 is normal and can be overcome with practice and feedback. By understanding these stages, you can track progress, stay motivated, and eventually master any skill.At this stage, learners don’t realize their skill gaps or the effort it takes to improve. For instance, someone trying golf for the first time might think hitting the ball accurately is easy, only to discover the complexities of a proper swing. Essentially, they don’t know what they don’t know.The main hurdle here is overcoming this lack of awareness. This usually happens through exposure to the skill or feedback from others.Here, learners begin to see the difference between where they are and where they want to be. They become aware of their limitations, which can feel discouraging. However, this realization is a crucial step toward improvement.Take golf again as an example: beginners might notice they frequently miss their target. Recognizing these gaps often sparks the motivation to improve through focused practice.At this point, learners can perform the skill but only with concentrated effort. Every move requires attention and deliberate action. For example, a tennis player at this stage has to actively think about their footwork, swing, and positioning for each shot.To progress, learners should: * Practice regularly with correct techniques. * Seek feedback from experienced coaches or mentors. * Gradually tackle more advanced aspects of the skill. This is the stage of mastery, where performing the skill feels effortless. Think of professional musicians - they play intricate pieces without overthinking the mechanics, focusing instead on artistic expression.By this stage, actions are driven by muscle memory and require little conscious thought. StageFocus AreaUnconscious IncompetenceBecoming aware of skill gapsConscious IncompetenceLearning the basicsConscious CompetencePracticing and refining skillsUnconscious CompetenceMastery and instinctive execution Platforms like TeachMe.To can be particularly helpful during the second and third stages, offering expert guidance to speed up progress and strengthen skills.Knowing these stages is just the start - success depends on regular practice, honest self-assessment, and guidance from the right resources.Figuring out where you are in your skill development journey starts with honest self-reflection. Are you still focusing on refining techniques (Stage 3), or have you reached a point where actions feel natural and automatic (Stage 4)?Here’s how to assess your stage effectively: * Track your progress: Keep an eye on specific metrics tied to your skill. * Identify challenges: Write down areas where you consistently face difficulties. * Gauge effort levels: Pay attention to how much conscious thought each task requires. By pinpointing your stage, you can align your practice and feedback efforts to address what you need most right now.Focused practice paired with regular feedback can speed up your progress significantly - by as much as 40%. The key is to stick to a structured approach. Practice ElementPurposeExampleFocused SessionsSharpen specific skillsDaily targeted practiceProgressive LoadingBuild graduallyIncreasing skill challengesPerformance TrackingMonitor improvementsRecording your progress Working with an expert can make a huge difference in how quickly you improve. For example, a study on tennis players found that those with professional coaches advanced from Stage 2 to Stage 3 in just 3 months, compared to 7 months for those learning on their own.Platforms like TeachMe.To connect learners with skilled coaches who provide personalized feedback, tailored drills, structured plans, and the encouragement needed to tackle obstacles. This type of guidance complements your own efforts, creating a balanced approach to mastering new skills.While coaching can speed things up, it’s still up to you to stay consistent and address any hurdles along the way.The conscious incompetence stage can be tough. This is when people often realize just how much they don’t know, leading to frustration. Studies show this stage sees the highest dropout rates in skill development. Here’s how to tackle common challenges during this phase: ChallengeSolutionExpected OutcomeAwareness of gapsBreak skills into micro-goalsProgress feels achievableLoss of motivationGet frequent feedbackBoosted confidenceComparing with expertsFocus on personal progressReduced frustration Working with skilled instructors can make a big difference here. They offer practical strategies to address specific weaknesses, helping learners move through this stage more effectively. Once past Stage 2, the focus shifts to maintaining steady progress in Stage 3.Stage 3, known as the conscious competence stage, is where deliberate practice starts paying off. However, it’s also a balancing act: practice too hard, and you risk burnout; practice too little, and progress slows. A structured approach is key to staying on track:Smart Practice Scheduling * Keep practice sessions short - 30 minutes with 10-minute breaks * Alternate between challenging tasks and easier, maintenance activities * Build in recovery days to recharge This method not only keeps burnout at bay but also improves consistency by up to 40%. The trick is to balance focused effort with regular recovery.Progress MonitoringTrack your performance metrics, celebrate milestones, and keep an eye on your energy levels. This helps ensure steady growth while avoiding overexertion.For extra support, consider working with an experienced coach. They can adjust your practice plan based on your skill level and energy, offering feedback and tweaks to keep you moving forward without overdoing it. Mastering a skill involves moving through four stages, each with its own challenges and focus areas. By understanding these stages, you can turn frustration into motivation and follow a clear path to improvement.The process from unconscious incompetence to unconscious competence isn’t static - it takes time, practice, and determination. Here's a breakdown of what happens at each stage: Stage TransitionKey FocusSuccess FactorsStage 1 to 2Self-awarenessHonest assessments and feedbackStage 2 to 3Deliberate workStructured learning and guidanceStage 3 to 4ConsistencyRepetition and fine-tuning Having the right support can make a big difference. Coaches or mentors can offer tailored advice and help you stay on track with personalized feedback and strategies [2].To keep progressing, keep these tips in mind: * Use feedback to identify areas for improvement. * Break progress into smaller, achievable steps, and don’t hesitate to seek expert help when needed. Timelines for skill development can vary greatly, so focus on steady improvement rather than rushing the process [3]. By understanding and working through each stage, you’ll stay motivated and reach your goals more effectively.Here are answers to some common questions about the stages of skill development.The four stages of skill development, introduced by Noel Burch, include: 1. Unconscious Incompetence: You don’t realize what you don’t know or that improvement is needed. 2. Conscious Incompetence: You recognize skill gaps and understand the effort required to improve. 3. Conscious Competence: You can perform the skill with focus and deliberate effort. 4. Unconscious Competence: The skill becomes second nature, performed automatically. These stages provide a clear roadmap for learning and mastery, helping individuals track their progress and identify areas to work on [1].The conscious competence stage is the third step in skill development. At this point: * You’ve learned the techniques required for the skill. * You can perform the skill accurately with focused effort. * Execution still takes mental concentration and practice. This phase is where learning transitions toward mastery. While you can perform the skill correctly, it hasn’t yet become automatic. Continued practice helps move toward the final stage, unconscious competence [2][3].

For example, instead of saying, "I want to get better", aim for something like, "I want to lower my score by 10 strokes in six months" or "consistently hit drives over 200 yards."Your progress depends on the time you dedicate to learning and practicing. A good starting point is weekly lessons (30-60 minutes each) paired with 1-2 hours of practice between sessions, adding up to 2-4 hours a week.Take a close look at your schedule and block out regular time slots for lessons and practice. Early mornings, evenings, or weekends often work well. Use tools like planners or apps to track your progress and plan drills.Focused practice is key. Even 30 minutes of intentional practice with clear goals can be more effective than hours of aimless hitting.Once your goals and schedule are clear, you’re ready to find a coach who matches your needs.Once you’ve set clear goals and figured out how much time you can dedicate, the next step is finding a coach who can guide you toward success. A good coach can speed up your progress and make the learning process more effective.When considering potential coaches, check for certifications like PGA membership, which signals professional training and adherence to standards. It’s also worth asking about their experience with beginners, their teaching techniques, how they track progress, and whether they customize lessons to fit individual needs.Some coaches might use tools like video analysis or data-driven methods, while others focus on hands-on adjustments. Choose someone whose methods align with your learning preferences and goals.Reviews, testimonials, and references can provide valuable insight into a coach’s reputation. If possible, observe a lesson to get a sense of their teaching style. Trial lessons are another great way to see how well their communication and approach work for you.Here are a few things to keep in mind when evaluating a coach: * Their teaching experience and areas of expertise * How clear and effective their communication is * Whether they adapt to different learning styles * Success stories or positive feedback from other students Steer clear of coaches without proper certifications, those who rely on one-size-fits-all methods, or anyone making unrealistic promises. Lesson costs can vary widely - from $25-60 for basic sessions to $75-300 for top-tier coaches at premium facilities [3][5]. Pick someone who fits your budget and aligns with your goals.Once you’ve found the right coach, you’re ready to plan your lessons and manage your budget effectively.Once you've chosen a coach, the next step is figuring out the costs and lesson options to plan your golf journey.Golf lesson prices can differ depending on the instructor's expertise and location.

Pack your golf clubs, balls, tees, a ball marker, a towel, and a water bottle. Wearing proper golf attire is just as important - choose comfortable clothing and shoes with spikes or soft spikes to ensure stability and ease during play.Starting out in golf means building a solid base by focusing on the basics. Here are three key areas to prioritize: * Grip and Stance: How you hold the club and position your body sets the tone for every shot. A correct grip plays a big role in improving swing accuracy and consistency. * Basic Swing Mechanics: Work on creating a steady pre-shot routine. Many beginners skip this step, which often leads to uneven swings. * Practice Routine: Golf improvement takes time and regular effort. Most instructors suggest practicing at least once a week between lessons to reinforce what you’ve learned. Find out if your coach offers additional tools to support your learning. These might include: * Video Analysis: Slow-motion recordings to fine-tune your technique. * Practice Plans: Organized routines to help you stay consistent. * Digital Feedback: Remote evaluations using apps or online tools. * Drill Libraries: Specific exercises designed to target areas for improvement.

What to Ask a Good Golf Coach: Maximizing Your Learning Experience
5 min read
Finding the right golf coach can transform your game from frustrating to fulfilling. Whether you're a beginner looking to build proper fundamentals or an experienced player aiming to break 80, asking the right questions during your search helps ensure you're making a worthwhile investment in your golf journey. With hundreds of qualified golf coaches available, it's crucial to find one who matches your learning style and goals.Start by asking, "Can you describe your coaching philosophy?" A coach's response reveals their teaching approach and whether it aligns with your learning style. Some coaches emphasize technical precision, breaking down each swing component with scientific precision, while others focus on feel and natural movement. The best coaches adapt their methods to each student while maintaining core teaching principles. Listen for how they balance mechanical instruction with the art of the game."What is your experience working with golfers at my skill level?" This question is crucial because teaching a beginner requires different skills than coaching a single-digit handicapper. Your coach should have demonstrated success with players at your level and understand the progression required to reach your goals. Ask about specific success stories and how they've helped players overcome challenges similar to yours. Be wary of coaches who claim expertise across all skill levels without concrete examples.Ask, "How do you assess a golfer's skills and provide feedback?" Top coaches use a combination of visual assessment, video analysis, and on-course evaluation. They should explain their process for identifying swing flaws, measuring improvements, and communicating adjustments. Look for coaches who provide clear, actionable feedback rather than vague suggestions. Great coaches can break down complex movements into digestible steps and explain why certain changes will improve your game."How do you help golfers set and achieve their goals?" and "How do you track progress?" are essential questions. Effective coaches create structured improvement plans with measurable milestones. They should explain how they'll document your progress, adjust your training plan, and help you stay accountable to your goals. Ask about their system for tracking improvements in key metrics like driving accuracy, greens in regulation, and scoring average. The best coaches maintain detailed records of their students' development."What teaching methods and technologies do you use?" Modern golf instruction often incorporates launch monitors, swing analysis software, and other training aids. However, technology should complement, not replace, fundamental teaching skills. Your coach should explain how they balance traditional instruction with modern tools to enhance your learning. Ask about specific technologies they use and how these tools will benefit your development. Understanding their approach to technology can help you gauge whether they're staying current with teaching innovations while maintaining sound instructional principles."How do you incorporate mental training into your coaching?" Golf's mental aspects often separate good players from great ones. Strong coaches integrate psychological elements like pre-shot routines, stress management, and course strategy into their lessons. They should have specific techniques for building mental toughness and maintaining focus under pressure. Ask about their approach to helping students overcome common mental challenges like first-tee jitters, recovering from bad shots, and managing tournament pressure."What is your preferred communication style?" and "What is your availability?" Clear communication and consistent access to your coach are vital for steady improvement. Discuss lesson frequency, practice supervision, and methods for between-lesson support. The best coaches maintain professional boundaries while remaining accessible for questions and quick feedback. Ask about their policy on video swing reviews between lessons and how quickly they typically respond to student questions."How do you structure your lessons and what are your rates?" Understanding the coach's pricing model and lesson structure helps you evaluate the value proposition. Ask about lesson duration, package options, and any additional costs for technology use or practice facilities. Some coaches offer playing lessons on the course, which can be invaluable for strategy and course management training. Consider how their pricing aligns with your budget and development goals.When evaluating responses to these questions, consider: * How clearly the coach articulates their methods and philosophy * Whether their approach aligns with your learning style and goals * Their enthusiasm for teaching and student development * Their track record of student improvement * The value they offer beyond basic swing mechanics * Their commitment to continuing education and staying current with teaching methods * The quality of their practice facility and available technology Remember, a great golf coach does more than fix your swing—they become a trusted advisor in your golf journey. The right coach will understand your goals, create a clear path to achievement, and provide the support and accountability needed for consistent improvement. Take time to find someone who combines technical expertise with effective teaching skills and genuine interest in your development.Start your search today and use these questions to find a coach who can help you achieve your golfing potential. With the right guidance, you'll develop faster, avoid common pitfalls, and enjoy the journey to better golf.
