The local layer of golf coaching

Most golf instruction lives behind a clubhouse: a long driveway, a credential wall, and prices you only learn after you ask. birdieyard puts coaching back in the neighborhood — coaches who teach where players actually live, at prices shown in plain sight.

How coaches are vetted

Every public coach profile is reviewed by the birdieyard team before it earns an eligibility badge.
  • Coaches confirm they are 18 or older.
  • The team reviews PGA/LPGA credentials, GHIN handicap claims, or self-reported coaching experience.
  • Profiles show the proof players care about: real photos, reviews, response time, lessons taught, and repeat students where available.

Where lessons happen

Lessons are booked by the hour and taught wherever works for the player and the coach.
  • A coach's own backyard setup or home simulator.
  • A driving range, a course, or a quiet local park.
  • Your backyard, with a portable net the coach brings.

What players can expect

Everything on birdieyard ladders to four promises.
  • Affordable — a real coach at a neighborhood price, with hourly rates shown up front.
  • Convenient — book the hour you actually have, close to home.
  • Comfortable — a first lesson that does not feel like a country club.
  • Trustworthy — know who you are meeting and what it costs before you book.
