You know your golf game
could use a little work
and seek the wisdom
of a qualified teaching
professional, but which one
should you choose? If money
is not a factor and your
platinum American Express
is at the ready, here are a few
names and prices for a quick
tune-up.
Everyone knows
Michael
Breed
. He’s the high-energy
guy on Golf Channel’s, The
FIX, with all of the gadgets
and drills to improve your
golf game. An hour one-on-
one with Michael is only
$500.00.
Dave Stockton
won 10 PGA
Tour titles, including two PGA
Championships, with a so-so
long game, but a dynamite
putter. Today, he is the putting
guru to the big names on the
PGA Tour. If you would like
to shore up your short game,
Dave is available for a mere
$1,200.00 for a two-hour
session.
Jim McLean
hangs out at
Trump Doral and has tutored
Ben Crenshaw, Curtis Strange,
Sergio Garcia and Gary Player
to name drop just a few of
his more famous clients. He
authored the
X-Factor theory
of the golf swing
and will
dissect your broken swing for
$750.00 per hour.
David Leadbetter
has been
teaching top players for a
long time. He transformed
Nick Faldo, made a major
champion out of Nick Price,
has tutored Michelle Wie
since the crib and now
counts the No. 1 ranked
woman golfer in the world,
Lydia Ko among his students.
David runs clinics all over the
country and will devote his
total concentration to your
feeble golf swing for $3,500
for a three-hour lesson.
Mark O’Meara convinced
Tiger Woods to leave Butch
Harmon and give
HankHaney
a try back in 2004. Tiger
being an excellent student,
won a few more majors with
Hank’s swing. When Haney
split with Woods, after Tiger’s
messy public divorce, he even
wrote a tell-all book to make
a few more bucks. Haney has
also had a golf tutelage reality
show on the Golf Channel,
but was never able to quite
fix Charles Barkley or Ray
Romano.
If you would like a lesson
with Tiger’s former teacher, it
will run you $15,000.00 for a
full-day.
