Beginner training plan
Your first lessonWe will conduct an OPTIONAL Physical Assessment designed by the Titleist Performance Institute to determine the golf capabilities and limitations of the player’s body. Again this is optional and not required, however highly recommended for optimal results. The Physical assessment consist of doing several golf positions and movements which will identify the player’s physical attributes and limitations. The amount for the TPI Physical Assessment is an additional $100 to the price of the first lesson. Again, this is OPTIONAL. We will then come to an understanding of the Player’s goals in order to develop a specific training program. An understanding of basic golf terms, rules, and etiquette will be encompassed throughout the lessons. I like to begin Golf from the putter going upwards in the bag. We will work on establishing a proper set up routine, the putting grip, style of putt, putting arch, and speed specific for the golfer. The goal of the day is to be able to putt the golf ball effectively from 7 feet and in. By the end of the lesson the student will be able to putt the ball successfully and consistently from outwards of 1,3,5,and 7 feet.
Lesson 2-3LESSON 2: We will review the first lesson for 5 minutes to see how much the first lesson was practiced on and absorbed by the student. Immediately after we will begin to learn to Chip. We will discuss the importance of this particular shot, and when to properly use it. Chip shots are for short distances typically but not limited to around the green. Expected distances to be hit: 1-30 yards. This is a hybrid lesson which combines the previous putting one has learned paired with chipping. This will simulate the final part of a hole of golf; A chip and a putt. We move on with the lesson by adding distance to the players putting abilities: 7- 20 feet. Once the player can successfully chip from 30 yards and in they will chip the ball on to the green and putt the ball in to the hole. A combination of the first two lessons.
LESSON 3: We will review the second lesson for 5 minutes to see how much was practiced on and absorbed by the student. Immediately after we will begin to learn how to Pitch. We will discuss the importance of this particular shot, and when to properly use it. Pitch shots are for short to mid range distances when the ball is too far away from the green for a chip shot to be effective. Expected distances to be hit: 30-100 yards. The goal of the day is landing one ball on the green then putt the ball in to the hole. This will simulate when the player is in scoring position on the fairway of a hole of golf. Should the player miss the green they will use the chip shot they previously learned to get the ball closest to the hole as possible for the easiest putt. Player will then putt the ball in to the hole. We will chip, pitch, and putt the remainder of the lesson working on and addressing any issues or questions the player may have.
