FAQs

What is the The Assessment?

The assessment is an introduction to Better Golf principles and is the starting point to determine if a Better Golf Experience is right for you.

The assessment will consist of three separate sessions and will include a combination of boardroom discussion and virtual play in the studio.

Boardroom discussion will focus on where you are now and where you would like to go. Virtual play will include putting, chipping, full swing, and club throwing. Each will have a role in introducing you to concepts and coaching methods that are taught at the school.

The experience will create an awareness of your beliefs and help you see the possibilities through your own experience.

Putting - Existing behaviors may not be productive for you
• Different ways to give you feedback and awareness of how the program can work for you
• Show yourself the possibilities

Chipping - Opens creativity and creates an awareness of possibilities
• Changing clubs
• Creating energy to distance

Full Swing - Measures and develops confidence
• Awareness of where the power comes from
• Unlock restrictive movement
