In the process of learning, we will teach the skills of using different types of clubs.​A set of basic clubs includes Driver (1 wood), Fairway Wood (fairway wood) ), Iron (iron), Putter (putter). And Hybrid (hybrid) is also indispensable in the bag. Most golf equipment manufacturers have sets for beginners, complete sets of clubs and bags. , fully equipped.

​How to choose a golf coach?

In North America, there are two types of golf coaches. One is a member of the Professional Golf’s Association of Canada, referred to as CPGA. Member of Canadian Golf Coaches Association).
About CGTF. I have a special introduction in CGTF Canadian Golf Coaches Association . You can read it at any time.
About CPGA. Here is a brief introduction: To become a CPGA member. It takes about 3 years to apply Relevant courses. Mainly to learn the management and operation of golf courses. Golf teaching is part of it. After completing the course, take the golf practical ability test. Play 2 rounds. The total score in 2 rounds cannot exceed 159. Simple It is said that a par-72 course must be played below 80 to qualify. To become a CPGA member. Time, 

money In terms of teaching, because the CPGA
membership fee is high. Is it worth the money? There is a long-standing debate. My opinion is, whether CGTF or CPGA . Each coach has his own unique teaching method. If you have 1 -2 years of golf experience. Or beginners want to become the second Tiger Wood in the future. It is more suitable to learn from CPGA. If beginners just want to participate in golf. Systematically learn various golf styles and postures.. Learn from CGTF More suitable. Why pay More?
A lot of people including me. There is a beautiful misunderstanding. Treat PGA members and PGA Tour players as equals. Basically, the two are very different . The members of the CPGA are very large. There are about 10 players in Canada who can play the PGA Tour.
According to Canadian law, lawyers, doctors and other professionals must have valid professional licenses to engage in related work. Because golf teaching does not have Relevant laws and regulations. In order to protect your own interests. When choosing a golf coach for payment, you must understand clearly and ask the coach to show relevant valid licenses
