No matter who it is, everyone has their own idea of what they want to achieve from golf lessons. It is my responsibility to make sure that we work towards these targets and achieve success. A target can be something like breaking 90 for the first time, driving the ball over 250 yards or quite simply you want to just enjoy your game more, everyone is different and I can help make it happen.
All these points are static fundamentals and the idea is that you have to be in a ready position before you even make your swing. The majority of people I see on ranges around the world basically stand up and try and smash the ball as far as possible. I am a great fan of long hitting but until you have the correct fundamentals it is not going to work. Golf is a lot about speed….but it MUST be correctly applied!
Lessons are 50 minutes in duration and take place at the Tee Off Driving Range in Bangkok, located within walking distance from BTS Ekkamai.
Using specific slow motion capture software we can easily pin point faults quickly and get to work on fixing them. To fix any fault it is vital to practice correctly, using training drills that are specific to the issues that you have. The fact is that nowadays everyone has access to the internet and information regarding the golf swing but in general, amateur golfers are getting worse!
When it comes to elite junior golfers then we are looking at more long term planning for their success and improvement. Those wishing to turn Professional and play for a living will need to understand that this takes hard work, dedication, commitment and the drive to succeed.
If your child has the dream of being on the PGA or LPGA Tour then we can help them on their journey to success. The first step is to ensure that they are ready to play in competitions and then have a clear 12 month plan of what to play in and where. I travel regularly with students to tournaments in Thailand as well as to countries such as Philippines, Malaysia and Scotland. The standard is high in all age categories and I can help to make your child compete to this level.
If you have the desire to improve your golf game then I will be able to make this happen. I have done thousands of hours of coaching and have over 20 years of experience in teaching golf. I can pin point your faults quickly and accurately, giving you the training drills suitable for you. If you practice the correct way and stick to the drills you are given then you will improve quickly and start to enjoy your golf game even more.
This absolutely depends on what your goals are. Prior to your initial lesson we can discuss what you wish to achieve by taking lessons and come up with a plan on how to achieve this. Taking a lesson a minimum of once a week will help you improve at a reasonable rate as long as some practice is done in between sessions.
In order to improve quickly then absolutely, yes. Practice means working on certain training drills that are given to you to help iron out your faults. Some drills need to be worked on at the range and there are also some which can be done at home. The more you practice the correct way, the faster you will improve.
Individual lessons take place at the Tee Off Driving Range in Bangkok, a short walk from Ekkamai BTS station. On course lessons can take place on any course you wish, if you are unsure of where to play then I can recommend somewhere suitable. If you have clubs please bring them, if not then I can provide equipment for you.
