WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF TAKING GOLF LESSONS ONLINE?

With Skillest, I am able to connect with golfers from any location in the world. You no longer have to live near a PGA Professional in order to benefit from their expertise, all you need is your phone and a golf club. No matter where you are, you’ll always have your latest lessons with you on the app. Refer to them as you need without the fear of forgetting any valuable information passed along by your coach. Benefits include:

• Location Flexibility: With online golf lessons, you can take a lesson from anywhere in the world. You don't have to be located in close proximity to a PGA professional, which can be especially beneficial if you live in a remote area or if there are no golf instructors available in your immediate vicinity.

• Convenient Scheduling: You don’t have to worry about blocking off your calendar, rushing to pick up the kids or finding a time that works for you on the instructor’s availability – you can fit your lessons into your busy schedule and avoid having to take time off work or other commitments that may be required to attend an in-person lesson.

• Lessons Library: One of the benefits of taking golf lessons online is that you'll have access to your lessons on the app, which means you can re-watch the lessons as many times as you need to fully understand the concepts being taught. This can be especially helpful for those who need more time to absorb the material.

• Customized Learning: Online golf lessons can be tailored to meet the individual needs of each student. I create customized, detailed video responses based on the student's level of experience, skill, and goals, which can be more effective than a one-size-fits-all approach.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED

• Smartphone or tablet with the Skillest app downloaded

• Access to a range or an at-home setup which includes a hitting net & golf mat

• Tripod or a friend to record you

• Golf gear (clubs, balls, etc.)

FILMING YOURSELF

You will film two angles of your swing to send to me: down-the-line and face-on. For both angles, the camera should be positioned approximately 10-12 feet away from the golfer and waist-high off the ground. The camera should always be in-line with the golfer's hands, NOT the golf ball.

• Down-The-Line: This angle faces towards the target (this is either your at-home hitting net or the driving range).

• Face-on: This angle faces towards the front of the golfer's body. If your driving range does not provide adequate space for the face-on angle, using the 0.5 zoom on your camera is acceptable in order to get your whole body/swing in the shot.
