The best way to learn golf is also the Easy Fun Affordable pathway into the game.
What is 1ClubGolf?
1Club Golf is as it says golf with only 1 club used from start to finish doing away with the need to buy a set of clubs, bag, and trolley making it cheaper and easier to learn.
For this pathway we have the Smart Club which has been especially designed to make learning intuitive rather than having to take on lots of new information.
For well over 100 years this was the path into the game for many players including the great Seve Ballesteros who famously became the best player in the world after starting with just 1Club. Seve’s story is by no means unique with over 95% of golf pros we surveyed having started with just 1Club hitting the ball around a field or out oncourse following a parent. These golfers learned to play the game first developing an understanding of the skills they needed to progress and a love for the game.
In fact, starting with just a single club has many benefits aside from the financial ones. Firstly, as a new golfer you can get the opportunity to get to know just 1 club its length, weight and loft which will help you more quickly find the center of the club and learn to predict where the ball may go. Secondly, it’s a taster allowing us to get you straight out on the course playing the game with the skills you already have to see if you like it. Rather than committing a lot of time and money to learning how to use a wide range of equipment and techniques. Thirdly, it saves time on the course because there are no decisions as to what club you’re going to use and no gear to drag around it’s a more liberating form of the game.
With 1Club golf you choose your golfing pathway which can be anything from staying with just the Smart club enjoying the social and physical benefits of golf. Or progressing all the way to a full set of clubs and competition play, the decision is totally up to you. No matter what you choose starting with the 1Club pathway will give you the best foundations in golf setting you up for success in the future.

Smart club
You will be given a Smart club to use for the session which has been especially designed to make learning easy. If you can let your instructor know if you are left or right-handed that would be a help but if you don’t know they will help you in making the best choice. The Smart club has a grip with a flat edge on top where we place our thumbs to help us hold the club efficiently; it also has a circle in the middle of the clubface to indicate where we would like to hit the ball.
Safety
Golf is a safe game however due to the nature of the club and ball there are a few guidelines we need to follow to ensure we avoid injury and have a great experience. Before swinging a club check the surrounding area to make sure nobody is endangered of getting hit by the club or ball. When watching another golfer play stand 3 to 4m away never forward of the golfer, it’s actually a lot like the off-side rule in soccer
Speed of play
As golf is a shared space it’s important, we move at a speed which allows everyone to enjoy their round. Whilst it’s a sport and we want to stay active it’s not a matter of running around the course but simply being organized. Watch where you ball and your playing partners finish up so you know when it’s your turn and you’re ready to play the shortest hit goes first so we stay safe.
Your ability
Everyone can already play golf if we understand what our current skill level is and gradually build. Your current skill relates to the length of swing we can make while hitting the ball in or near the circle on the clubface while it’s pointing at the target. On the putting green everyone can hit the ball with a small swing progressing the ball 1 to 5m and it’s perfectly natural that somewhere between that and a big swing you may have seen others make, you will struggle at first. The key to enjoying and improving is to find the level of swing you can make using it to work your way around the course it doesn’t matter how far it goes just keep doing it gradually building, if you do try a bigger one and its not successful go back to a smaller one so we can keep the game moving. Less thinking more doing is the key.
Course care
Golf courses are beautiful places kept in amazing condition for playing golf and as golfers we all need to play our part in keeping them that way. For every shot we play apart from the putting green the club should at least brush the ground in order to hit the ball in the circle which is where you will get you best results. This can especially on bigger shots result in a divot which we need to repair by filling with sand which you carry around in small buckets provided at the start of play. All care should be taken not to hit the green with the club when putting as this is a highly manicured part of the course that needs to roll true for golfers.
