dmgolfer Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Hi: Recently took advantage of a deal a local pro offered for 3 lesson, some flight scope data and video. We discussed after the 3 lessons what on-going lessons and what type of plan we can work on. I did see some improvement and liked what he pointed out during our initial 3 lessons. What is considered a good per lesson price; I do live in Southern California and this is a local muni where I found him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlH Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 It really depends on the pro, his experience level, and market conditions. Muni course is likely to be the least expensive. Prices can range from $35/lesson to well over $100/lesson. Going with a package deal will net you better prices. cnosil and TR1PTIK 2 Quote Driver: Rogue ST Max (10.5* set at -1 and neutral) -- Mitsubishi Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Fairway: Rogue ST Max 3 wood (16.5*) and Heaven Wood (20*)-- Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Hybrids: Rogue ST Max 5H (23*)--Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Irons: Apex CF19 6-9, PW, AW -- KBS Tour Graphite TGI 70 shafts R +1/2 inch 3* upright Wedges: Edison 53* and 57* KBS PGI 80 Graphite +1/2 inch 2* upright Putter: L.A.B.

RickyBobby_PR Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Depends on the area and the pro. There’s usually a general average all pros charge in an area then there’s the more popular/better ones or that work at upper level places that charge more. the cost is really dependent on the golfer and what they are getting Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteddyGolf Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Lessons are not cheap but they do become more cost effective when you commit to a package. If you have a Golftec (or like company) in your area they are a good way to go. While the package cost may be a little intimidating at first if you use all the package has to offer it’s a pretty good deal. Remember everything is a negotiation until it’s not. If you have a pro in your area who doesn’t offer a package you can live with then propose your own deal. He/she is trying to make a living. If it were me on the teaching end I’d probably consider any reasonable offer.

tony@CIC Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Money is always a factor but keep in mind the most expensive instructors may not suit you. I would interview a bunch and ask about their approach to teaching and then how much 1-1 lessons are. Also some do group clinics which might be a good way to "test drive" the instructor. FYI twice I made the mistake to the most expensive instructor and they didn't last more than 2 lessons each. Also most do offer package deals which on a per lesson basis are quite a bit lower.

Txmason123 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 In North Texas, lessons can range from $40 to over 100. The course I take lessons at charges $100 per lesson, but I buy a package that reduces it to $80 per lesson. This is a state of the art facility that uses trackman, indoor hitting bays, covered outdoor practice bays, etc. My instructor is great. He has drastically improved my swing without totally changing my natural mechanics. So I found the features worth the price. I enjoy each lesson almost as much as a round of golf. Totally worth it in my opinion.

DiscipleofPenick Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 My muni pro is $30 an hour and he's by far one of the least expensive. I think it's important to be able to talk with the pro so they understand what you want out of the lesson. Do you need a tune up or are looking for a whole rebuild? If the former you need to find a pro who understands that, not one that will ignore your needs and only teach "their" swing. If the pro only wants your money and isn't willing to take 20 min or so to talk to you about what you need, it isn't worth your time.

txgolfjunkie Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Unless it's snowing, outdoor lessons are significantly more beneficial than indoor, hence why I don't recommend Golftec. I will occasionally utilize a launch monitor indoors to get impact data on new clubs but the outdoors is the way to go. Ask playing partners or ask folks on the range who they would recommend for lessons. I imagine there are some good teachers in the S. Cal area.

Have you done the lesson plan from them and had positive results?I’ve not done lessons with them but I’ve had friends who have. I think they get a bad rap because of their business model which is like all good businesses designed to make money. I think you are spot on by starting with a swing analysis. That experience will give you a good feel for their products. If it’s not for you then you simply move on. I will say from my knowledge they offer a lot then kind of bet on the fact you will not take advantage of all the benefits. Kind of like a gym membership.....folks join, go for a month then tapper that down to once a week. I did have a guy I played with every Sunday who’s progress thru Golftec was astonishing. He went from 20 to 6 in a matter of months. Granted he was a former college athlete but the basics built through his time at Golftec really maximized his god given abilities. There will be folks who will jump on here to lambaste Golftec. I say judge for yourself.

SteddyGolf Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Just a second note about Golftec. Yes they have a business model in place to maximize their profits. They too must feed their families, make car payments and house payments, etc..... The one thing to keep in mind is your experience is based on two things; the quality of instruction and your willingness to keep an open mind to learn. FYI- the most common cost I’ve seen across the industry for Golf lessons is between $30 to $60 an hour.

If you are already a single digit guy you might find lessons to be a bit frustrating. That’s were the “willingness to learn” comes into play. To take a step forward you might need to take two steps backward first. This is where teaching adults is a challenge. We learn to compensate to achieve functional results and are unwilling to give up our current competencies even when it may lead to greater gains in the future. Pride and ego tend to get in the way. If you are willingly to accept some mid 80 to low 90s scores in the short term for a few rounds while you work through those swing changes I am confident low 70s will soon follow. I also recommend you review your course management behaviors along with you club selection pattern. You might find a hidden jewel that will lead to lower scores in the absence of formal lessons.

TR1PTIK Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 This thread got me thinking about taking some more lessons again. We just got a new dedicated instructor at my home course, but I'm starting to wonder whether or not I can afford him... 1 lesson = $70 for 45 minutes (not bad IMO), but packages start at $450!!! I'm not sure I would even call them packages as much as I would call them experiences either because they're all tailored for something a little different. I like the concept, but yeesh!!! $450 - A Day with the Instructor - Includes: 2hr long game/swing instruction, 1hr short game, 1hr putting, 1hr lunch break to discuss goals and course management, 9-hole playing lesson, 1hr post-round supervised practice session. $600 - "Phil Package" - Includes: 1 skill assessment & video analysis of short game technique, 8 short game lessons, monthly supervised practice sessions, personalized practice routines. $725 - "Tiger Package" - Includes: Video and data analysis with each club, 10 individual lessons, monthly supervised practice sessions, personalized practice routines. $2000 - "Tour Package" - Includes: Video and data analysis with each club, 3 skill assessments (beginning, middle, and end of season), unlimited lessons, monthly supervised practice sessions, personalized practice routines, unlimited video submissions for review & feedback. While any one of those packages sound great. None of them are really in my price range. How about 3 lessons for $175 or something??? May have to look at lessons from someone else which has it's pro's and con's. Pro's: close to my house, best practice facilities in the area, lower cost.

Just reading the description is exhausting!!! It's been a while since I've spoken directly with him, but he's the head pro at the only private club in the area and comes off as a bit pretentious at times. What really soiled me for him was that after a couple lessons with him in previous years, he suggested I come out for a demo day just to try out some of the equipment and see what I thought. I hit some balls, tried some clubs, and ultimately decided not to buy. Next time I saw him, he practically blew me off. I'm a nice enough guy, I'd be willing to give it one more try (there's a decent chance it's been long enough he won't even remember me), but even with the lower price for instruction he is not my go-to.

For where my game is, the Phil package is where I think my dollars would be best spent, but $600 is a lot to stomach at the moment. I offered a little more detail when replying to @GB13, but basically I've made it a point to keep some separation between us for a while.

revkev Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Going back to the original poster I don't know that we've answered his question yet probably because we can't. We would each of us know what the cost of lessons are in our own areas. You should be able to make a few calls to poll local places and see what is being charged. It sounded like you had success with the guy/gal that you were working with so I would stick with them unless they are unaffordable - I'd find it hard to believe that someone at a local muni was much above $50 even in SoCal. So I would guess that's affordable. BTW for guys who were thinking that taking lessons at a club is more expensive it actually isn't. That's one of the perks - my guy is $60-$100 for non-members and $40 for members - he bills us at his cheapest package rate. cnosil 1 Quote Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60 Aldila R flex - 42.25 inches SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft Ping G410 7, 9 wood Alta 65 R flex Srixon ZX5 MK II 5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex India 52,56 (60 pending) UST recoil 75's R flex Evon roll ER 5 32 inches It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chershey Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I'm taking a lesson tonight from a local pro that my wife got me a gift certificate for back at Christmas. He's supposed to be really good but he also charges $180 for an hour lesson, so I'm hoping I will get plenty out of it. I'm also playing Saturday at a really nice course I've never played before, so I won't have much time to work on anything he teaches me tonight. I may have to just stick with my current swing on Saturday and then work on any swing changes after that.
