Private Golf Lessons
Improve your golf
game with a private golf lesson,
junior golf
lessons, putting lessons or
beginner golf lessons from
Sacramento’s only Top 100 Teacher.
Private golf lessons
are appropriate for anyone that
wants to tackle a particular golfing
problem in a one-on-one 45-minute
session with the area’s best golf
instructor, Keith Lyford. Whether
you need a short game lesson, a full
swing lesson with video, a driving
lesson or a beginner golf lesson,
Keith will improve your game with
simple and understandable tips.
Keith’s
passion is teaching golf.
He’ll use every possible means,
including innovative training
techniques and the latest technology
to help you reach your golfing
goals.
Each golf lesson
begins with an assessment of your
current game. First is an
interview designed to get as
familiar as possible with your golf
background and level of experience.
Then Keith will spend time observing
ball flight, divots and your body
motion before making any suggestions
for improvement.
Keith believes that a
good golf swing starts in the brain
with a clear concept of the
important fundamentals. He also
wants his students to understand
both their current swing and the
required changes, along with the
cause and effect relationship it has
to ball flight. Then he will
carefully communicate and
demonstrate how to make the needed
swing change.
Golf is essentially a
game of feel, but feel is learned
from mechanics- not the other way
around. For that reason Keith will
encourage that you to practice and
train in an analytic (thinking) mode
until the new motion and
corresponding feel is grooved. He
will often use a drill or training
aid to help transition from old
swing to new move.
Most importantly,
Keith doesn’t believe change should
mean a golfer gets worse before
getting better. You should see
immediate improvement in both swing
and ball flight. And if you stay
with the suggested game improvement
plan, the results will be permanent.
So that your
improvement continues seamlessly,
notes on your lessons and videos of
your swing are stored for one year.
When you return for another session,
Keith can see how much progress you
have made.
On-Course Play Lessons
If
you’re having a problem scoring as
low as you think you’re capable of
it’s probably time for an on-course
play lesson. Use Keith’s experience
and knowledge to help you play to
your true potential. He’ll share
tips on course strategy, recovery
shots and tips from the Tour to cut
out those unnecessary and costly
mistakes that can quickly ruin your
round.
