Frequently Asked Questions

How much should I charge for private golf lessons?

Private golf lessons typically range from $50-200 per hour depending on the instructor's credentials and location. PGA-certified pros at private clubs charge $100-250+, while assistant pros and independent instructors charge $50-100. Your price should cover the instructor, facility fees, range balls, and leave at least 40-50% margin for overhead and profit.

Are group lessons more profitable than private?

Group lessons typically generate more total revenue per time slot because you spread instructor costs across multiple students. A group of 4 at $40/person earns $160/hour versus a private at $100/hour. However, private lessons have higher per-student value and attract serious students who book more consistently. Most successful programs offer both.

How should I price junior clinics?

Junior clinics are typically priced 30-50% below adult group rates because parents are price-sensitive and juniors require more patience. Charge $20-40 per student per session for groups of 6-8 kids. The real value is building future adult students and family memberships. Many clubs subsidize junior programs as a long-term investment.

Should I include range balls in the lesson price?

Yes, include them. Bundling range balls into the lesson price simplifies billing and feels more premium. The cost per session is typically $5-15 - a small portion of the lesson price. Charging separately creates friction and makes the lesson feel nickel-and-dimed. Factor the cost into your pricing and advertise 'all-inclusive lessons.'
