Adult Golf Lessons in Austin, TX

Who our adult golf lessons are for

A large share of BGP students are picking up the game as adults. Some are complete beginners who want to feel comfortable on the course with friends or colleagues; others played years ago and want to rebuild a swing that stopped working. Every plan is built around your goals, delivered without judgment, and paced so each new skill makes sense before the next one arrives.

You'll be coached by the Beyond Golf Performance team — TPI-certified coaches delivering golf coaching, led by former professional golfer Francis Biondi — at Balcones Country Club in northwest Austin.

Your first session: the new student assessment

Beginner golf lessons for adults start the same way as every BGP plan: a 60-minute Initial Assessment at Balcones for $150. If you're brand new, your coach uses this hour to find a comfortable grip, setup and motion and to show you how practice will work. If you've played before, it shows exactly where strokes are going.

• A 1-hour full-bag look at putting, short game, wedges and full swing
• Foresight launch monitor data and video swing analysis
• A clear plan for what to work on first, plus your first fixes
• A custom training program and REPS app access

How coaching works after that

From there you follow The Pathway, our step-by-step structure of eight phases. Each phase is five one-hour sessions: one TPI body session, three technique sessions and one on-course session, so new skills are tested on real holes and not just the range. Most golfers move through a phase every 6–10 weeks.

Video analysis and Foresight launch monitor numbers make progress easy to see, even for beginners who don't yet know what a good shot feels like. A single one-hour lesson is $150. Prefer to learn with others? Group clinics run $100 per person.

Between lessons you practice with REPS, our practice app. Tell ChatBGP what you want to work on and it builds a personalized practice plan from the same drill library our private students use. The free plan includes 3 personalized practice plans and 1 Video Swing Check each month, and Swing Checks are reviewed by a real BGP coach.

Getting comfortable on the course

When you're ready, a playing lesson takes coaching onto the course at Balcones — real shots, real decisions, and course management you can't learn in a hitting bay. It's often the step that turns range confidence into enjoying a full round.
