Anyone from the Bay Area?

Hi,

I'm relatively new to the sport as well as this forum and I'd like to know if anyone could lead me in the correct direction to get some good golf lessons.

It's been over a month and a half since I started and my current coach, although a decent player himself, doesn't seem to understand my individual needs and lacks the attention to detail in tweaking my swing.

Can anyone possibly recommend a good coach for me?
Anything would help!

Thank you!!!

Hey thanks Johnny, would you recommend anyone?
I just called and was told to speak to Darren.
Could you possible give me some insight on the facility as well?
Or is it THE BEST you can find in the Bay Area.
:)

Re: Anyone from the Bay Area?

Where are you out of? To be honest, the best way is to frequent some ranges, and sort of watch the instructors, get a sense of their style and their effect on the students. It pays to do your homework when you choose an instructor, as you have to place your game into their hands. That takes trust. Not only do you have to commit to the instructor, they have to commit to the journey as well. The more you look into this stuff, the more relaxed you can be, and you can trust that you made the right decision. Depends where you live. I might be able to help you, I might not. And how far would you be willing to travel to get to the site for lessons once a month. ( it takes about 21 days for changes to ingrain, on the average)
