Practise Area

New Academy Practise Area

Save between 1 and 2 shots per hole!

If you want to maximise your enjoyment and minimise your scorecard there is only one answer - practise, practise, practise!

It's all about what you Practise!!

Some golfers mistakenly think that just going up the range to 'get their eye in' is the answer. Sadly, this is not the case. What happens is that you develop and embed bad habits. The right answer to increasing your enjoyment and improving your game is to combine coaching with practise. Learn how to play the shot correctly and then practise what you have learned.

70% of Practise Time on Short Game

Another challenge for amateur golfers is that they place the greatest emphasis on distance rather than their short game. However, top golfers and coaches agree that this is holding them back.  They conclude that about 70% of your score is decided by how good you are with your short game shots! That's right 70%!! That number alone should motivate golfers to work more on their pitching, chipping and putting skills.

At Princes Risborough Golf Club we decided to do something about this and we built a purpose built practise area to Bruce Loome's specification.

Have Fun Developing the 'Smart Shots' to a Better Scorecard

Smart shot coaching examples

We have developed a new Academy Practise Area - enjoy knocking from 1 to 2 shots off of your scorecard per hole by practising some simple guidance.

At Princes Risborough Golf Club we have put the fun back into learning and coaching great golf - it's a lot easier than you think. Simply practice doing the right things and you will improve. Or you could practice without direction - well what did Einstein say about the definition of insanity? "doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result".

If you are a Member, access to the Academy Practise Area is currently free with your membership - but you need to book at golf reception.

So why not book a lesson with Bruce, simply click here - increase your enjoyment and improve your scorecard! or sign up to one of our 'Try Before You Buy' packages.
