As an alternative to taking golf lessons with your local professional, you might want to consider attending a golf school/clinic instead.  Golf schools can range from 1 to 4 days and clinics are typically limited to a day or less.   It's best to review the various golf school websites to better understand what's included in each package.  Different types of golf schools are available to address different types of golfers.  For example, schools are available for individuals, couples, women only, juniors, or parent/child.  Use the following links to get information about some of the best and most popular golf schools and clinics in the United States.
