There has been some great golf on the television this year and you will notice how professionals get their shot distances consistently correct. This is not just down to the help they get from their caddie but by knowing exactly how far they hit each club.

Next time you are on the range, go through this simple process. Hit 6 balls with each of your Rescue club, your odd numbered irons and each of your wedges. Make a note of the average distance for each club and those averages will give you the distances in between the odd irons for the even ones too.

About 2 hours of your time will be rewarded with more accurate clubbing for the rest of the season and lower scores as a result.

Hi, I’m Lee Johnson and via my golf instruction website I am going to explain how I can help you, your friends and your family get maximum enjoyment from the great game of golf. Since 1973 I have been helping hundreds of golfers achieve their goals. The teaching skills I employ have been developed through studying and teaching golf and applying my own passionate and very personal style. The seeds of my career in golf were sown at a very early age and this is how it grew to where it is now………….

Played golf since the age of four.
Capped for Scotland at U18 level in 1972
Gained my PGA qualifications in 1976
Was a head golf club professional from 1977 to 2004
Surrey junior coach since 1987
Established the ‘Lee Johnson Golf Academy’ at the Drift Golf Club, Surrey in 2004
Awarded ‘Fellow’ status by the Professional Golfer’s Association (PGA) in 2005

So, with a wealth of experience to draw upon, and a learning environment at The Drift GC which matches my pupil’s needs, my focus is providing you with the best possible tuition.

The Drift Golf Club (www.driftgolfclub.com) provides the perfect location for the ‘Lee Johnson Golf Academy’. Situated in East Horsley, Surrey, the Drift GC is just 4 miles from the M25 junction 10, and is within 10 miles of both Kingston and Guildford.

Covered mats, a grass teaching tee (summer) and a short game area are complimented by the 18 hole Par 73 course, all of which are vital components to successful and enjoyable tuition.
Academy membership is available and a great way for novices to get started.

My structured golf tuition comes in various forms which I have detailed for you on the TUITION page and please remember, my teaching is available to everyone, across all levels of ability, there are no ‘Private’ signs at the ‘Lee Johnson Golf Academy’.

So if you would like to get your game back on track, or take it to another level, give me a call now. I look forward to working with you and helping you get the most from this great game.
