Open My Roadmap →I'M NEW TO GOLF
Start with confidence—not complexity.
You do not need a perfect swing to begin enjoying golf. Start with a comfortable setup, learn what solid contact feels like, and build a simple routine you can trust. The rules, etiquette, and more advanced skills can grow with you one step at a time.
WHAT TO LEARN FIRST
Build the fundamentals without trying to fix everything at once.
Focus on a comfortable setup, balanced motion, and making the ball move forward with solid contact. Avoid collecting swing tips from several different sources. One clear priority practiced consistently will help you improve faster than five changes at the same time.
Make consistent contact
Learn to find the center of the clubface before worrying about distance or a picture-perfect swing.
Use a simple pre-shot routine
Choose a target, take one rehearsal swing, set up comfortably, and make a committed swing.
Build confidence and have fun
Notice the small wins. Every solid shot and comfortable decision is meaningful progress.

Explore Your First Lesson →A NOTE FROM ALFONSOEvery great golfer started exactly where you are today.
Do not worry about being perfect. Learn one skill at a time, enjoy the journey, and celebrate the small improvements along the way. Your goal is not to become a great golfer overnight—it is to become a little better every time you play.
I WANT TO BREAK 100
Make the costly mistakes smaller.
Breaking 100 is not about hitting every shot perfectly. It comes from keeping the ball in play, wasting fewer shots around the green, and choosing decisions that prevent one mistake from becoming a big number.
WHERE THE STROKES GO
Penalties, three-putts, short-game mistakes, and low-percentage recovery shots.
Start by noticing the shots that add strokes without creating a real scoring opportunity. You do not need more distance or a perfect-looking swing. Solid contact and predictable decisions will move your score faster.
Keep the ball in play
Choose a club and target from the tee that reduce penalties and leave a manageable next shot.
Improve around the greens
Build reliable chipping contact and putting speed so one missed green does not become several wasted shots.
Avoid the big number
After a mistake, take the simple recovery and put the ball back in position instead of forcing the perfect shot.
WHAT TO PRACTICE
Spend your time on the shots you use most often.
Prioritize solid ball striking, shots inside 100 yards, and putting speed control. Consistency beats distance. When those areas become more predictable, you will have fewer penalties, easier recovery shots, and shorter putts to finish each hole.

Explore a Focused Lesson →YOUR COURSE-MANAGEMENT RULEAim away from trouble and play for your next shot—not the perfect shot.
Choose the safest useful target and keep the ball in play. Smart golf will save more strokes than taking unnecessary risks, especially after a mistake.
I WANT TO BREAK 90
Turn doubles into bogeys—and bogeys into pars.
Golfers near 90 often have enough good shots to reach their goal. The difference is reducing inconsistent tee shots, improving approach accuracy, and converting more straightforward opportunities around the green.
WHAT STANDS IN THE WAY
One or two costly holes can erase a round full of solid golf.
Protect your score by keeping tee shots playable, choosing approach targets that leave manageable misses, and preventing a missed green from automatically becoming a double bogey.
Keep tee shots playable
Prioritize position and a predictable next shot over maximum distance.
Miss in the right places
Choose targets that give both your best swing and your normal miss room to finish safely.
Own the scoring shots
Improve wedge distance control, eliminate three-putts, and give yourself realistic chances to save par.
PRACTICE & MEASURE
Spend more time inside 100 yards—and track your up-and-down percentage.
Reliable wedge carries and a predictable short game create closer approach shots and save strokes when you miss a green. Track how often you make par after a missed green to see whether this part of your game is moving your score forward.

Turn one or two doubles into bogeys each round and breaking 90 becomes far more achievable. After a mistake, choose the next shot that gets the hole—and your round—back under control.
I WANT TO BREAK 80
Good golf becomes great scoring through fewer mistakes.
Consistently shooting in the 70s does not require perfect golf. It requires precise approach play, disciplined targets, controlled wedges, and the ability to capitalize when scoring opportunities appear.
WHAT CREATES THE DIFFERENCE
Manage misses, avoid penalties, and turn more good positions into scores.
At this level, broad swing changes are rarely the complete answer. Measure where strokes are actually disappearing, then make practice and strategy decisions around the patterns that repeat.
Improve proximity
Create more realistic scoring chances with sharper approach and wedge distance control.
Manage every miss
Use targets that protect against penalties, short-sided misses, and difficult recovery positions.
Convert opportunities
Turn more missed greens into pars and make a higher percentage of putts inside six feet.
MEASURE WHAT AFFECTS SCORING
Let your patterns decide what deserves practice.
Penalty strokesMissed greens inside 150 yardsUp-and-down percentageThree-puttsMissed putts inside six feet
Track strokes gained around the green when available—or use up-and-down percentage for a simple manual measure. You need to know whether your short game is saving the round or quietly adding pressure to every hole.
