Any recommendations for a golf instructor in Houston?
He would need to be beginner friendly, I am terrible.

Thanks.

what part of town are you in?

For a beginner, I might look for a GolfTec that's convenient to you. It's not "cheap" but their lesson + practice packages are on sale right now. They sort of have a canned swing they work with, but it's good enough to get you started. With the practice sessions, you can practice indoors, mostly on your schedule, with real-time video playback.

Right near downtown off Allen Parkway.

I like Golf-tec as well. I'm much more a visual learner than listening to coach telling me what I'm doing wrong but I cannot see it. Maybe it's from years and years of watching golf, so I sort of know what a swing should look like.

I have been told the woman that does lessons at my club is outstanding - I've yet to use her but feel like I might pull the trigger on some short game lessons with her. She's in the LPGA hall of fame as an instructor. Deb Vangellow

Go Memorial Park golf.

Like others have said, for a beginner check out GolfTec , you have three locations close to you. Go for a swing evaluation to see if you like the tech but it's basically a sales pitch to get you to sign up and buy a lesson package. The downside is the price per lesson credit and you have to prepay your lesson credits. If you don't use them the credits expire.
