What to Expect in a Lesson
Each lesson runs 45 minutes on the practice range. Ed starts by watching your current motion, then works on the areas costing you the most strokes — whether that is driver mechanics, iron consistency, chipping and sand play, putting, or on-course decision-making. Sessions include swing analysis and video feedback, plus practice drills to work on between visits.
Lessons are one-on-one, so the pace and focus match you rather than a group. That is what makes a single 45-minute block productive even for a specific fix like a slice or a distance-control problem.
