Lesson Mode

Recently, while giving a lesson the student said “Paul, I need to get into the lesson mode for my next lesson. What a great phrase, “Lesson Mode”.

I believe Lesson Mode is you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled lesson. We will gladly give you free range balls to help you loosen up. Bring along a folder for keeping lesson notes. Leave your cell phone in the car. Wear golf or tennis shoes. And finally plan on staying 15 minutes after the lesson and hit range balls to reinforce the ideas we discussed. When you get to your computer, watch the summary wrap-up of your lesson. I believe being in the lesson mode will make your lesson more productive.

In my opinion, students taking lessons hit one bad shot and take it too seriously. Quite often they will say, “What did I do to miss-hit that shot?” and half the time I respond, “I do not know”. The reason for my answer is I am always looking for shot patterns rather than just 1 miss-hit. Fixing one miss-hit shot is impossible; but, when a trend develops it is easier to diagnose the problem and solve it. Being in LESSON MODE means you are willing to practice between lessons. “Your effort equals your improvement”.

And finally, please feel free to ask questions or email me anytime you have a question or concern.

“THE FUTURE OF GOLF”… Seve Ballesteros

Regardless of my title (Coach, Instructor, Teacher) my responsibility to my clients is to do everything possible to improve their game. My commitment is “Continue to learn and challenge myself to help you learn faster”. Effective immediately, these changes have occurred at the Wisconsin Golf Academy.

“THE FUTURE OF GOLF”

COMPLETE LEARNING: The days of teaching just “GOLF SWING” are over. I now teach “GOLF GAME”. Complete Learning will address and educate you on every aspect of golf. Some of these aspects will be outside the scope of “Normal golf swing” lessons.

GOLFLAB118: The name Golflab118 is intended to mean an environment that will help speed your learning. Within those 4 walls I intend to address every aspect of golf from your first tee shot to your last putt. Interior modifications have been made to create a better learning environment.

PRACTICE PLANNING: “The Final Frontier” to improvement. Unfortunately, rarely does a person who is practicing KNOW HOW TO PRACTICE and the majority of range time and money is wasted. Teaching a person how to practice may be as important as the golf lesson itself. Golf is problem solving motor skill and requires motor learning which is rarely included in golfers practice. Smarter practice will be more efficient and speed a players “Learning Velocity”. Research has proved that just hitting a lot of golf balls is not necessarily the best. PRACTICE CALULATOR SCORECARD (PCS): This scorecard will help determine how realistic your goals are as well as hold you accountable to your practice.

EQUIPMENT: Provide to you what I consider to be the best equipment possible. TaylorMade: “Tour Quality Drivers” and the innovation leader for over 30 years.
