Golf Schools In The Winter Make Great Vacations

By Mike Pedersen

Have you ever considered golf schools for a winter vacation? Have you ever looked out onto your nearest golf course and wished it would stop snowing? Or have you stood shivering in the middle of a rock hard fairway wishing all that frost would disappear and that spring would arrive? Why not take a winter vacation and combine it with some much needed golf instruction.

How do keep your game in trim for the new season. Unless you are a tour professional and travel to warmer climates for your golf in the winter, you either play a lot less or you take a golfing vacation. In winter, why not fit in some professional golf instruction with your vacation? A winter golf school is a great way of not only keeping your game up to scratch during the winter season, but also of ironing out all these niggling little problems that may have been creeping into your game.

Are You Unique In The Golfing World?

Unless you are unique in the world of golf, you could certainly do with a bit of golf schooling, and the winter is probably the best time to get it. Most people find that they reach a certain level in golf, and can go no further because they don’t know how to. It’s all very well reading books and watching golf videos, but nothing beats the personal attention provided by professional teachers. Some even provide one to one coaching.

It is important, however, to keep in mind that this is a vacation, and the golf is only a part of it. For your partner or family it may be not even that, and they will want something to keep them amused while you are out on the course or practice range satisfying your own particular needs. For this reason you don’t want a golf academy way out in the middle of nowhere. There has to be some alternative entertainment, and resort golf schools are ideal.

A winter golfing vacation in Arizona or Nevada is ideal for you and your family. Winters in desert resorts are warm and the golf coaching is excellent. There are some great golf resorts and golf schools in places such as Scottsdale, with the Nicklaus/Flick Game Improvement School at the Scottsdale Tournament Players Club, and Phoenix, with the Advantage Golf School which also operates from other locations in Arizona.

esert Golf Academies Are Busy In Winter

If you can get a deal with unlimited golf thrown in after your lesson, then what could be better? Great weather, great instruction and great golf. Your one single problem could be demand. Many winter resorts are in great demand due to their good weather. In fact, it is more comfortable even for the residents to play the desert courses in winter than it is in summer, and lots of people will have the same idea as you. You need to book as early as you can to have the choice of school that is generally available. If you have a favorite golf academy, that you have tried elsewhere and want to try again, then book this year for next year! The demand can be that high.

Golf schools are an excellent alternative to a normal golfing vacation, and whether it is spring, summer winter or fall, always give good value for money. How can you put a price on the improvement that can be made to your golf?
