CONTENT:

Full swing sessions- Golfers will recieve individual video analysis on their current technique. This analysis will be repeated on the last day where the changes can be observed. There will be a professioal for every five golfers, so each player will recieve as much individual instruction as possible. We understand that players have different body types and that physical ability varies from person to person, for that reason each individual will be taught swing characteristics which suit them. Pre swing fundermentals such as grip, posture and ball position will be simply explained and provide the core for which the full swing sessions are based.

Chiping and pitching sessions- Chipping and pitching basics will be covered as will chipping with different clubs and distance control with pitch shots.

Bunker technique- This session will include both greenside and fairway bunker technique. Distance control and different sand conditions and how that affects the shot will be explained.

Putting- Here the basics will be explained. We will cover the set up and alignment fundamentals as well as distance and direction skills. An explanation of tempo for distance control and eye position for correct aim will give participants a solid understanding of this game within the game.

Course management and basic psychology- Bevan will accompany players on the afternoon rounds.

All the golf school participants will recieve a copy of their swing comparisions accompanied by individual notes.
