DG Mastery
DiscoverGolf’s Mastery program is a natural progression from DGWee- DGPlay. “Mastery” is dedicated to juniors most intrinsically motivated towards a pursuit of golfing excellence. Their emotional – physical – mental investment is met with a more “deliberate – explicit” style of coaching dovetailed to SERIOUS PLAY , zero sum , and increasingly individual and competitive scenarios. “ Play theatres” are now “training grounds”; environments geared toward finding the “sweetspot” of play – focus – and goal attainment.
