golf lessons

Post by Dawebo »

Hi

I'm looking for some recommendations from any of you folks who have taken golf lessons in the last year. I'm an intermediate golfer and want to take some lessons to improve my iron play.

I was impressed with the Mongkol Golf Academy website and I went there yesterday hoping to speak to an instructor, but the place seems to be almost closed up and it doesn't look like lessons take place there.

I'm sure there are good pros based at the main golf courses. I'm just looking for a recommendation from anyone who has taken lessons here in the last year or two.

thanks in advance.

I presume you've seen these:

I had lessons with John up at Mongkol at the end of last year, as a complete newbie to the game, and now I'm addicted ... the bastard!

He'll put you right and still offers tuition - best to call though as the range kind of erm ... had an accident. His mobile is at the bottom of the Mongkol page above.

I totally agree you should go to John, he put me on video next to to the Asian Tour player Simon Yates, so that I could compare my swing with his and dam I looked good. Thinking of joining the tour myself as soon as I break the 100 mark and thats the first 9 holes. Seriously go to John he doesn't try to impress you with all the technical jargon, keeps it simple.
