Have you ever noticed that most
sports have a coach on-site when a person or team learns, practices and
scrimmages? Sports like basketball, tennis, gymnastics, baseball,
football and karate all have someone there to provide feedback.
In golf,
unless you're playing competitively at the top levels, you are on your own for
practice. Students can take a half hour or hour lesson, or attend a golf
school for several days but then they're on their own.
Feedback is SO
crucial for improvement. Going it on your own may take longer because the
idea may not be correct or may be over-practiced or, even worse, practiced incorrectly.
The
Landings Club golf professional staff highly encourages golfers to come back
for follow-up lessons or walk-by's. I'd rather see a
student three times a week for 5 minutes to just go over an idea instead of every 2-3
weeks when they've practiced the idea incorrectly.
Make use of the staff for
feedback, both verbally and visually!
