I’m looking at lessons with a pro. They offer packs of 30 min (6-pack) and 60 min (3-pack) sessions. Is there a benefit to one over the other? Is 30 too short or 60 too long?

I’ve never taken lessons before, just played my whole life. I’m a mid 80s golfer trying to get more consistent and break into the high 70s.

Unless you’re a beginner I’d opt for more 30-minute sessions. Ideally you can just get in the track-man, take a few pointers, and then work at the range between sessions.

I worked at golf clubs, played collegiate golf and talked to tons of pros. Almost all of them would tell you that they are teaching for the first 10-15 minutes of a lesson and after that it’s just babysitting.

Both have their positives. It really depends what you need. A longer sessions can have you take more swings with different clubs and have them give you pointers before you do your own practice. The shorter sessions can focus on one small change to focus on before you come back. Both work just depends on the person.

See if you can mix & match - i.e buy the 6 pack and use 2 together for a 1 hour session & the rest 30 min

30 minutes is more than enough. 60 minutes will be them watching you swing for more than half the session…think of golf lessons as drinking thru a straw, not a fire house. Take small sips.

like

The only thing I can say about 60 minutes is you really need the first 10-20 to address the issue and attempt to resolve, the go do something else for 20, then come back and try to apply the changes “cold” the last 20.

Otherwise 30 is fine. Plus major swing changes generally will throw something else out of whack so more frequent is often better.

I appreciate all the advice! I’m going to go with the 30-min pack.

Is there an easy/efficient way to figure out how much you've contributed to vs earned in your Roth accounts?

The purpose of doing this is I want to use $10K of it, but want to prove that the $10K is from my contribution.
