Pointers For A Good Choice Of Golf School
According to GOLF Magazine, the Phil Ritson - Mel Sole Golf
School is included among the top five good - if not best - golf
schools in the United States. Every year since 1999, this school
appears and is included among the ten best golf academies.
The Basis of the Rankings
These were according to a variety of reasons which includes the
teaching quality of the golf professors, the school program and
facilities, as well as the hundreds if not thousands of golf
graduates that were surveyed and asked to rate the experiences
they had from attending the school.
According to this particular school, they help students achieve
his or her personal best, always.
Teaching Principle
The teaching principle in this golf school was formulated by
Phil Ritson - he used to be a coach to Gary Player as well as
other stars in the PGA - and Mel Sole, who is a veteran of the
PGA Tour in South Africa.
Good golf schools such as this cater to a host of golfers in
different levels of skill, knowledge and expertise. They should
also be open to anyone from the golf beginner and the advanced.
Also, a low student to teacher ratio is best so that ample time
and attention is given to teaching and learning golf without it
being too expensive and unaffordable.
Visual Aids
The selection of the good golf schools as according to GOLF
Magazine depended also on the various aids used in teaching the
game. However, though computer generated golf swing models are
used to illustrate a good golf swing, up to video analysis
software that consists of four cameras to capture that perfect
or imperfect shot with hopes of further improving on it, and
acres upon acres of land range all help in making it conducive
to study golf. Still, nothing beats a school's quality teaching
instructions and curriculum.
Instructor's Credentials
The golf instructor's teaching credentials is one of the basis
in the selection of good golf schools. How many years have they
been teaching? How many of these teachers actually are
professionals that are included in the PGA, are Class A or
belong to LPGA?
In GOLF Magazine's selection, price was not included. They
considered this factor as very little in the overall golf school
selection since they consider that the primary reason for
attending a golf school is for one to better his or her game,
regardless of the price it would take for anyone to do so.
