Hi,

I have a group of 4 girls looking for beginner golf lessons. I really need some recommendation for a good coach. Would appreciate if anyone could offer some help here! (:

Thanks! (:

There are a variety of factors in picking the right coach. Location, rapport, reputation and price.

You might wanna give the list of coaches in the link below a call.

Sheenz,

Daren Lim is not a professional coach but he does help start beginners going in the right direction.
He is cheap therefore he does not charge.
You might wanna consider him first.

Cheers.

Hi, Can I also nominate myself to be available to you so as to allow you to see bad swings...?

Like they said, to know the bad swings, you can also improve. One that knows both good and bad, will serve to be more beneficial in future....

I am ok if you term me as 'resident - bad swinger'


I do not charge...just to be in your presence will be good enough

I suggest you come down to our starry nights range @ Marina Bay on wednesday.
Daren will be there and I am sure he will be able to advise u properly.

Sheenz you can find daren at most Starry Starry Night events, that happens every wednesday night at Marina Bay Golf Course on the rooftop of the driving range accessible for the two corner staircases. But do give the pros mentioned a call, for Phil Brew academy, quite a few here are with Brett Bridgeman.

Most importantly, you want someone who is able to look after you and your friends when you are down with your lessons. follow up is very important.

Hi Sheenz,

Welcome to Golf Republic!! cheers
Currently, I'm oso taking lesson at Phil Brew Academy with Brett Bridgman.
There are also other good coaches, including Brad and Marc.
Perhaps, you will also like to join us at our weekly meetup at MBGC every wed from 8pm onwards.

Hopes this will helps!

I did mine with Mr Lim. Enjoyed it very much. But i think star golf a bit pricey lah, even when compared with clubs like Laguna.

Hi sheenz

welcome to GR..hope you have a nice stay and surf here.

If you are staying at the east, Laguna is one u can keep a lookout for. One of our member shothitter is a pro teaching there...u might wanna drop him a PM...just a suggestion.

Enjoy the game
