First off, I assume that if you want to look at information about a specific golf school, or golf schools in a particular area, you will go directly to google, correct? Type in "Pelz Golf School" or "Golf Schools in San Diego" and you will likely find a website that will give you exactly the information that you want. But the type and kind of instruction is a different matter all together.

What golf school will be best for YOU? i.e
"How to Choose a Golf School"

First off, ask yourself, what are your ideas about learning? What are the ideas of the person that you are looking for (or buyin for)? By "ideas", I mean practice, philosophy, habits, play and attitude.

Do you think golf school should be fun and relaxing or stern and disciplined? Either way is fine, just make sure that the style of the school is what you need. Otherwise you might not get what you need from the instruction.

Another factor to consider when choosing a school and measuring the quality of its instruction is to discover how their students improve three months, six months and twelve months after they have left the school. Are they conitnuing to improve? Are there scores still coming down?

You might think that I am crazy to say that, because a golf school cannot follow a person after they have left and make them practice. But golf schools can help instill a proper attitude to learning and performance. They do tend to attract teachers and students who share certain traits in commin. Are the traits the love of money and hyped-promises of instant improvement? Or are the traits a love of the game and love of the journey of continual learning, improvement and mastery?

Even if you are brand new to the sport and looking for a beginner golf school, you will be able to tell whether a school fits your style and is, in fact, able to help you focus on the fundementals of your game and learning. If the promotional materials seem too hyped and overblown, or if you feel in your gut that something is wrong and doesn't work for you, then walk away. The golf school industry is a competive one and you will be able to find a school that suits you. Just take a deep breath and go visit another and another until you find the right one.
