anyone ever been to these type of lessons, i would think they are the same as outdoor lessons ....its winter here and they only thing around is indoor golf range and lessons, ...is an indoor range like dicks sporting goods where you hit at a target on the wall? (i got kicked out after hitting balls in there for 2 hours one winter day lol )....i wanna get my swing right before spring time comes...thinking this is the way to go

Golf lessons aren't so much about "where" as they are about "who."

i live in a small town and will be driving quite a ways...how do you go about finding out "who" is better to go to...there's one guy i know of who's the coach of the UofI golf team ...but he's difficult to schedule lessons with...thats all

You may try contacting some of your local courses and any PGA teaching professionals they may have. No pro worth his salt would be offended if you asked for references. We're all different but word of mouth is a helpful tool.

I'm sure I totally agree with that. Yes, "who" is vital. But based on personal experience having taking both indoor and outdoor lessons, the feedback from hitting a given shot, in terms of ball flight and contact with the ground as opposed to mats tends to be much better outdoors.

Having said that if there is no other option due to winter weather than praticing indoors sure beats not getting any practice at all.

i think the U of I golf coach's name is Mike Small, i've met him a few times, he's a pretty nice guy and from what i've heard he is pretty to good to take lessons from. but, there's a guy in Bloomington that was the state teacher of the year or something like that in '04, he spoke at a golf expo in Decatur i was at and he was really knowledgeable and all the Decatur-area pros hold him in high regards, his name escapes me at the time, but, i'm sure if you checked around on the internet you could find his name.

Indoor lessons are helpful although ive never taken them. Indoor lessons would be less "ball oriented" meaning that you could hit balls and not worry about where they go more about forming and tweaking your swing. That is especially good for beginners. Anyone watch "Worlds Worst Swing" on The Golf Channel? Then you know what I mean by that.

I have decided I am going to take some lessons indoors very shortly. Maybe 2 to 3 lessons, to straighten out my swing. I know exactly what my problem is (out-to-in) swing path, with an (open club face.) I just need to know what I can do to fix this problem. And also what I am doing wrong mechanically during my swing that is causing this. When I go to the lesson, I will recieve a video tape, at the conclusion of the lesson showing v1 analysis and audio commentary of what I am doing incorrect.
