The STG Golf Coaching System

Find the shots you’re losing. Fix them. Prove it.

“I coach the whole game, not just your swing: technique, skill, playing strategy and practice. Together we find where your shots are going, fix the cause and prove it with data.”

Steve Thomas, PGA Fellow Coach

Every change measured, and reviewed with you
01

Find the shots

Start with how you score, then measure your ball flight and swing against the benchmark for your handicap.

02

Pick one change

The smallest change with the biggest effect. One clear priority, not a list of ten things.

03

Coach it

Targets, drills and training aids, with technical detail only where it helps.

04

Prove it

Every change is checked with data, and you retest against the benchmark to prove it.

Your questions, answered

Do you coach in person, online, or both?

Both. In person, Steve coaches in Shropshire at three venues: the Shrewsbury School Golf Studio, Chip Golf Studio in Telford and Wrekin Golf Club. Online, he coaches golfers anywhere in the world through video analysis and the STG members area.

Which option is right for me?

If you live near Shropshire and want hands-on coaching with TrackMan, start with a lesson. If you are further away, or want coaching that fits around your week, start online. Not sure? Book a free 15-minute call and Steve will point you the right way.

Is coaching right for my level?

Yes. Steve coaches beginners through to low handicappers. Every golfer starts with how they score, measured against the benchmark for their handicap, so the coaching is set at your level.

How much does it cost?

Lessons are £85, monthly plans start from £70 a month and 9-hole playing lessons are £199 with the green fee included. Online coaching starts from £99 a month, and a Single Swing Review is £99.

What happens in the first session?

Steve starts with how you score, then measures your ball flight and swing. Together you agree one clear priority, and you leave with a plan for what to practise and how.

How quickly will Steve reply?

Within 48 hours, for lesson enquiries and for online swing reviews.

Do you run golf trips?

Yes. Steve runs a five-night training week at La Manga Club, Spain, with coaching, skills testing and on-course strategy. Airport transfers and drinks with meals are included. Flights are not.
