    Then again golf is known for added value as you usually hit more shots in a round than you expect and what should take 3hrs goes for 41/2 hrs +.

    Golfers are deluded if they think a 30 min lesson is enough. And I think golf coaches know this. They charge $50 for a 30 min lesson, let it run overtime and the golfer walks away thinking he is the best bloke ever, comes back again, and tells all his mates

    Golf instructors on the most part look pretty similar to council workers leaning on their shovels. They do have lots of accesiores though.

    Problem is, most hackers wont practice, I could give most golfers a quality lesson in 15 minutes, provided they put the time in practicing.

    For every 1 hour lesson I have done throughout my life, 15 minutes I would say is 'lesson', the other 45 minutes is simply supervised practice.

    If it was me I wouldn't have a lesson with Roger.
    If it was me I'd email/send to cloud Roger a short video of my swing, ask Roger to identify the areas needed correction, which area he would start on first and why, ask if he was available to check my progress in between lessons in person or on skype and what readings I should do or avoid. Of course all of this necessitates Roger knowing my golfing ambitions and how much time I have for practice and playing as well as any physical limitations that might impede my progress. Is Roger available for text messages or emails in between lessons? Can I call him if I am not sure of something?
    That's what I would do.
