Traditional In-Person Lessons At Forty Niner Country Club

Traditional In-Person lessons with Derek take place at the Forty Niner Country Club in Tucson, Arizona. The most common sessions run 45 minutes in length, however you can book as much time as you would like with Derek. More information on that can be found below.  All lessons include videos, pictures, and notes to help the student best retain the information learned. Lesson follow ups will typically occur at the end of the lesson where Derek can airdrop you the videos from the session, or delivered as soon as he is able. Due to very high demand, no package discounts are currently offered.

Several types of lessons are available, from in-person standard golf lessons to online lessons.

If you need to cancel or reschedule a lesson, please let Derek know as soon as you’re able. Late cancellations and “No Shows” are subject to cancellation fees and may result in no longer being able to schedule lessons.

All lessons can be pro-rated to fit your time slot needs.

(Sunday’s and Thursday’s) These times need to be worked out with him. If you’d like to see him ASAP, contact him and let him know it’s an “EMERGENCY/SQUEEZE IN LESSON”. He will work to get you in as soon as possible, and or if you’re in town for a certain amount of time and he’s already booked. 

Playing Lessons

Email Derek for more information and setting this up. This can be challenging depending on the time of year and how booked up the Forty Niner Country Club is. Students should be flexible when trying to get on the course with Derek. What typically happens is students will book an amount of time to be on the course with Derek, they go to an opening they find on the course and play holes for the amount of time booked.
