It gives us enough time to evaluate your full game, identify your priorities, and build a personalized plan. Choose the Total Game Analysis when you want a deeper evaluation, have competitive goals, want additional short-game testing, or would benefit from a TPI Mobility Screening." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Is this a golf lesson or an evaluation?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "It is both. We begin by evaluating your game so we are not guessing about what needs to change. Your coach will also introduce relevant adjustments, drills, and concepts during the session. The primary goal is to diagnose the most important patterns and give you a structured plan for improvement." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What should I bring?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Bring your golf clubs, golf shoes or athletic shoes, and anything you normally use while playing. You may bring your full set, but do not worry if you are a beginner and do not own every club. Wear clothing that allows you to swing and move comfortably." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What skill level is required?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "None. We work with beginners, recreational golfers, juniors, competitive players, and experienced tournament golfers. Your assessment will be adapted to your current skill level and goals." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Will you change my entire swing?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "No. Our goal is not to erase what makes your swing unique. We identify the patterns that are affecting contact, ball flight, consistency, or physical comfort, then focus on the changes that can create the greatest improvement." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What technology do you use?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Assessments may include Foresight launch-monitor data, high-speed video analysis, skill testing, coaching-app feedback, and TPI movement screening when included in the selected service. Technology supports the process, but your coach will keep the explanation clear and practical." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What is included in the TPI Mobility Screening?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The TPI Mobility Screening evaluates golf-specific movement patterns that may influence your swing. It can help identify restrictions, compensations, stability issues, or physical tendencies that affect how you rotate, load, and produce speed." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What is the Short Game Deep Dive?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The Short Game Deep Dive adds more detailed testing around pitching, chipping, bunker play, distance control, contact, trajectory, and shot selection. It is a strong choice for golfers who lose a significant number of strokes around the green." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What happens after the assessment?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Your coach will review the findings, explain your highest-priority areas, and recommend the most appropriate coaching or training plan. You are not required to purchase a package, but eligible students who enroll in a lesson package may have their assessment fee credited toward the plan." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Can I book with a specific coach?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes. Available coaches and appointment times will appear during the booking process. The BGP team can also help match you with the coach best suited to your goals and schedule." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Where are assessments held?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Assessments are held at Beyond Golf Performance at Balcones Country Club, located at 8600 Balcones Club Drive, Austin, Texas 78750." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What if the weather is bad?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The BGP team will contact you if weather or facility conditions require an adjustment. Whenever possible, the session may be adapted, moved to a covered training area, or rescheduled." } } ] } --- [![Beyond Golf Performance golf academy logo](/assets/bgp-logo-C26AK3hu.webp)](/) [About](/about) [Our Services](/programs) [Shop](/shop)[Blog](/blog)[Contact](/contact) [Golfer Login](/auth) ![Beyond Golf Performance coach analyzing a student's swing with Foresight launch monitor at Balcones Country Club in Austin](/assets/assessment-banner-BDBEzxdL.jpg) EVERY PLAYER NEEDS A STARTING POINT # Stop Guessing.
