    I've only heard good things about them, but they are expensive.

    If you have access to a short game area there is no reason why you cant do it all yourself really.
    Its all about having a club + swing length combo for specific distances inside 100M.

    think they are doing a one day special for just under 200 euro at the moment. 6 people for one instructor is the ratio which isn't too bad. personally id rather do what Greebo suggested and work on it myself.

    Fully agree . Iv always found self taught technique is much better that’s the advice of trained pga professionals .

    Why do the best players in the world have coaches and instructors then?


    Maybe it's because what they think is happening and what is actually happening are two different things. And then you have the average player who has even less of a clue why the ball goes a certain way and no idea how to fix it.


    Will you get to a destination quicker with a map or without a map?

    The OP should definitely go to the Pelz school, there's lots to be learnt

    Pelz is not teaching you how to swing, he is teaching you how to play...or at least that's my understanding?

    I would have thought there would be some lessons on technique included in the course?

    I assume there is probably some, such as you might get at a fitting, but I believe mostly it's focused on specific yardages and having shots for those yardages.

    He has an issue, albeit borne out of stats, with people being online but short or long.

    In the short game schools they teach the technique on how to pitch, chip, play bunker shots and putt. So for golfers looking to get better at these it's a good place to go.

    I was being sarcastic in relation to Greebos comments , which I find ludicrous . I agree with you completely .

    Better than 4+ private 1 to 1 lessons with your local pro?

    Maybe, that would depend on the quality of the local pro and their expertise in short game.
