Golf Lessons

There are many famous golf school like butch harmon, david leadbetter, dave pelz, etc… which will cost thousand for the 2-4 days school.

Meanwhile, they are many good teachers and get private lesson from them and cost much lower.

So, what is the real benefit to get lesson from famous golf school

Most of the people who go to these types of schools do it for the experience rather than the value. They go to say "I went to Dave Pelz's school." It's kind of like those baseball fantasy camps where a bunch of Hall of Fame players "teach" you to play better, but you're really going for the experience of getting to rub elbows with the guys running the thing.

If you're looking for the best value to improve your game, find a local private instructor and get long term lessons so that he can continually help you improve rather than a 2 day clinic from a bunch of people you'll never see again.

The lesson is 30 minutes and i really don't like when the instructor grabs the club and tells me to be in a certain posture. I get really nervous, feel like passing out and am afraid that i can't tolerate it and i will just run away and make a fool of myself?

Any advice?

I was thinking if i get really uncomfortable i could ask to get a drink of water. That is only one break though. Ah man what if i have a panic attack?

You are afraid of being afraid and that only way to get around that is to get out there. Do it slowely but you still have to get out there. Prove to yourself that you won't have a panic attack.
The possibility that you will pass out is actually quite remote. If he grabs the club, let go. Or talk to him before class and explain your situation. Remember to breathe deep and slow and tell yourself to calm down and relax.

Everyone has a golfer in their life. You can’t escape them so at least help them better their swing and bring a smile to their face. Select your location and get them onto the green.

I've played golf a few years, but this year I intend to get good . Right now I'm shooting about 110. I'm a lady golfer.

it depends on how you play and what the instructor expects of you. I am going to guess that it will take atleast til June… because you have to make sure your alignment is good (might be part of the problem) and that you are hitting the ball correctly.
no one can really answer that question until after about 2-3 lessons. you need to make sure you are practicing what your instructor tells you to practice at home.
it is hard to take lessons once you have already played because… you have to get used to a new swing and everything.
just practice what he/she tells you and hopefully it won't be too long although, you may want to stick with them just to make sure that you are doing everything correctly once you are hitting in the 80's. i personally love my private golf lessons.. but thats just me
good luck and have fun!!
