FAQ
Everything You Need to Know
WHO CAN TAKE A LESSON?
I currently give lessons to anyone no matter their ability. When booking just be sure to mention whether you’re an experienced player, beginner golfer, junior or alike.
DO I NEED TO BE A MEMBER OF "THE WEST LINKS" TO TAKE A LESSON?
You do not need to be a member to take a lesson with me. Outwith your lessons, you can't use the practice facilities unless with a member.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Something comfortable for swinging. The club permits a range of attire but just no blue denim jeans. Trainers will be fine if you don’t have golf shoes.
DO I NEED MY OWN EQUIPMENT/BALLS?
Again, no equipment is needed if you are new to the game but please just let me know when booking and I can arrange clubs for you to borrow. Balls will also be provided.
WHAT DOES IT COST TO TAKE A LESSON?
Prices vary depending upon session but individual lessons start at £45 for adults and £30 for juniors. Group pricing rates are available and can be found in the coaching section.
WHERE ARE THE PRACTICE FACILITIES?
It will depend what area of the game your lesson is focused on. There is a practice putting green next to the 1st tee (West Links), driving range and short game area out by the 8th tee. Please confirm prior to lesson on where to meet. Directions are available upon request.
HOW LONG IS MY VOUCHER VALID FOR?
The expiry date for all vouchers is 6 months from the date of issue which can be found on the voucher – no extensions available.
Special lesson packages or promotions may differ from this, but will be otherwise stated on the voucher issued.
All golf lessons and golf lesson vouchers are non-transferable and non-refundable.
I NEED TO CANCEL MY LESSON, WHAT DO I DO?
Please notify me as soon as you know you need to cancel or change your lesson day/time and I will do my best to rearrange for the next available time. If the cancellation is within 24 hours of the lesson or you don't show up, then no refund will be issued. Full cancellation policy can be found here.
THE WEATHER IS BAD, WILL MY LESSON BE ON?
You should call or email if you are concerned about the weather. If for some reason it is unsafe to deliver the lesson due to adverse weather conditions, I will call you ASAP.
