How young of a golfer can participate? Is there a minimum age?
We have taught players as young as 4 years old. Parents of players under the age of 16 must accompany their child as a paying adult. We do make exceptions if your child is an experienced player. Please contact us if you have questions regarding the best learning environment for your child. In many cases a private session is recommended.
I’m here on vacation and would like to attend, but my spouse doesn’t play and we are trying to do things together. Any ideas?
Yes, bring him or her along! We often work with couples where one person plays a lot and the other has hardly, or never, picked up a club. You’ll learn together and have fun while working on your own individual development with our coaches. It’s a great way to spend time together, and you’ll be developing new skills and improving your golf game at the same time.
How can this help my life off of the golf course?
The Seven Principles of Golf have parallel applications to life off the golf course. During a round of golf, a player will encounter many challenges and adversity, but those who continue to play one shot at a time always complete their round with a combination of great shots, difficult lies and hazards along the way. Applying these experiences on the golf course can help you face challenges in life and achieve what you want.
I get nervous when I tee off. Can you help?
Absolutely! If you get nervous when you’re on the tee, or if there are people watching, or if there’s a lake in front of the hole, you’ve come to the right place. We’ll teach you how to block out these distractions so it’s just you, the ball and the hole.
I didn’t bring my clubs. Are rentals available?
Rental clubs are provided complimentary for the Spirit of Golf Clinic, and we offer low rental rates if you plan to play a round afterwards.
How can I buy Spirit of Golf Academy merchandise?
Spirit of Golf Academy merchandise is for sale at the end of your clinic or lesson. All of our instructional books and DVD’s are available at our Amazon store.
Do you have gift certificates?
Yes. Gift certificates are available for lessons as well as merchandise. In accordance with Hawaii state law, gift certificates are valid for two years.
How far in advance do I need to book a lesson?
We try to accommodate everyone, but unfortunately this is not always possible. The success of our program relies on the small sizes of our clinics, so we recommend booking in advance. View our Reservation Policy.
Do you have a kama’aina rate?
Yes. You must have a valid Hawaii state driver’s license. Please call the school directly for these rates and to see if you qualify.
Do you offer corporate/group rates?
Yes. We offer corporate and group rates which include customization specifically tailored to your needs. Darrin and his team of coaches offer corporate and group clinics. Please inquire directly at (808) 887-6800 or email info@spiritofgolfacademy.com.
