Saddlebrook is located in Wesley Chapel, FL which is about 40 minutes or so north of Tampa. I did a 2 day golf school through a website called https://www.floridagolfschoolvacations.com/ – you can choose where you want to do your school and you can choose the number of days and the dates that you want to do your school. It’s very flexible and prices seemed pretty reasonable so I booked it. They have a lot of positive reviews on google as well.
My coach was a guy named Alex and he was really good. He’s a former instructor at the David Leadbetter Academy and also competed a lot as well.
For 2 days we spent the morning on lessons with him looking at my swing and making adjustments and such. Then we had lunch. And then we played 9 holes in the afternoon before calling it a day.
For the 9 holes, I played this time and he watched over me to give me tips out on the course. It was valuable to have him out there with me to give me advice and talk me through my swing, etc. Since I had just gone through some swing changes in the morning, my play wasn’t so good though…but you know, these things get worse before they get better.
The course itself is very nice. It wasn’t crowded so it was a good pace as well. There is some water, etc.
Saddlebrook is a nice resort so it looks like a nice place to stay with a nice pool, etc. It’s also a boarding school for golfers and tennis players, etc. so there are some students around as well.
