Practice with a Purpose! 

Students working on a specific swing goal from a lesson can follow up in Practice with a Purpose.  This is a great way to practice under guidance and with feedback with Nicole Weller.  Students have use of teaching aids to assist with the observation and learning process.  Once you understand WHAT to practice from a golf lesson, now it becomes crucial to practice the HOW... proper practice can lower golf scores and increase game enjoyment!  2008 Landings Guest Speaker and Sport Psychologist Dr. Rick Jensen trains numerous Tour clients in the HOW to practice mode based on what they are working on with their swing coaches and participants will see some of his drills during these sessions... 

Being able to perform a skill and being able to maintain that skill under pressure and play conditions are very different.  Golf is one of the only sports where the game is learned and practiced away from the actually playing field.  Transfer practice allows one to actually start transitioning practice and play before using it at the course.  Student in Practice with a Purpose Sessions will be using transfer practice.

Each 60-minute session will involve a transfer drill and then some open time for questions and answers on a previous lesson tip.  These practices are not designed to learn something new - they are designed to practice what was learned in a lesson under supervision and transfer.  Students can register for several practices a month at The Landings through Head Teaching Professional Nicole Weller or students may contact their own instructor at one of the Clubs to create a Private Practice Group.  The Landings Golf Professional Staff is dedicated not only to teaching the game and skills but also coaching them.
