ABOUT CASA DE CAMPO

LifeLong Golf School Curriculum

Our LifeLong Golf School includes a dynamic learning program that will give you the tools you need to elevate your entire game. This golf school will be customized to the game improvement needs of our participants. Prior to school, each student will complete a survey giving our coaches insight to their needs and guiding the school’s curriculum.

Unique to this school experience, students will spend as much time learning on the golf course as they will on the range and in the golf academy. We believe this is essential for helping students transfer the skills they learn on the practice facility to the golf course where it counts.

At The Practice Facility

Each day students will join Jennifer and Chelsea to learn the most essential golf skills needed to lower your scores. We will help students improve their:

  • Scoring Shots: Our school will focus on the approach shots you hit onto greens. From wedges to short irons, this school will help you improve your proximity to the hole from your approach shots. This is a major key to lowering your scores.
  • The Short Game (chipping & pitching): Learn an effective and successful short game method that will teach you how to make a great plan for all scenarios. Learn how to make the best club selection, target choice and strategy. You will gain great short game technique fundamentals and confidence!
  • Bunker Play
  • Putting: Green reading, distance control and putting stroke fundamentals
  • Tee Shots: Students will gain distance and accuracy through a blend of speed training, learning key set up fundamentals and focusing on balance.

On The Course

Students will be accompanied by their coaches in an immersive on-course playing experience. Key components of our playing lessons will include:

  • Pre-shot Routine–making great course decisions, creating confidence and managing your nerves
  • Situational Learning– Learn how to hit from from various scenarios and  how to adjust set up and swing for successful shots. Scenarios include uneven lies, trouble shots, short-sided pin positions, etc.
  • Pre-Round Warm Ups: Learn the most effective way to warm up prior to a round
  • Post-Round Review: Learn how to keep vital stats that will help you assess your strengths and weaknesses. After the round we will teach you how to interpret your stats and create effective practice plans.

Our students will leave this school with an excitement for continued learning, a deeper love of golf and a renewed commitment to improving their games.  To help keep you connected with your game improvement plan, students will receive:

  • CoachNow lockers to access their swing videos, golf school video library and golf school resources
