Students' Responsibilities

1. Arrive early, eager to learn, ask questions, and have fun.
   
   
2. Check in at the golf shop, fill out the questionare, and do some stretching exercises.
   
   
3. Wear comfortable athletic shoes, preferably golf shoes (they're safer), and a glove is recommended. All of these items are available on site.
   
   
4. Properly fitted clubs greatly enhance your game potential. We recommend review of this after a few lessons and before purchasing. Bring your own clubs, or we can provide you with some.
   
   
5. Get the most out of each lesson - Bring a tape recorder, or write things down. Understand each concept delivered.
   
   
6. Set a Schedule - Lessons vs. Practice Time, Remember: Best Results - Lesson Tee, Practice Tee, & First Tee.
   
   
7. Be patient with yourself and your learning process. Don't be surprised if there is regression before there is progress.
   
   
8. Stay with the program. Practice the specific lesson assignment with the club or clubs used during instruction. It takes time to develop a feel through muscle memory.
