What happens in your first golf lesson
Nervous about starting? Here’s exactly what to expect when you book a first lesson with Nick at Chart Hills.
Your first hour, step by step
1. A chat
Nick asks what you want from golf, any sport you’ve played, and any aches or injuries. No jargon.
2. Grip and setup
How to hold the club and stand to the ball. Small things that make the biggest difference.
3. Your first shots
Short, easy swings first, building up as you get comfortable.
4. TrackMan
See what the ball is doing, so you understand why a shot went where it did.
5. A little short game
Chipping and putting, which is where most of the scoring happens.
6. A simple plan
One or two things to practise, and an honest view of what to do next.
Made for complete beginners
You don’t need a handicap, a membership or any kit. Just turn up ready to have a go.
- Clubs to borrow

Questions
What should I wear for my first golf lesson?
Comfortable clothes you can turn in, and flat trainers or golf shoes. A collared top is a safe choice at the club.
Do I need my own clubs?
No. Nick will lend you clubs. Once you know you love it, he can help you choose your own.
I’ve never held a club. Is that OK?
Completely. Many of Nick’s pupils start from zero. The first lesson is about enjoying hitting the ball, not getting everything right.
How early should I arrive?
About 10 minutes early. Park at the clubhouse and head to the range, or call Nick on 07967 762127 if you can’t find him.
What happens after the first lesson?
You’ll leave with a simple practice plan and a suggestion for what to work on next. There’s no pressure to book a package.
