Golf School Awards
Has anyone here ever "done" the John Jacobs Golf School or the Nick Faldo Insitute programs at Marriott? I'm leaning toward cashing in some Marriott points for the Jacobs school and would appreciate any input as to quality, what to expect, etc...
Thanks.
Thanks.

did you use your points for one the Marriott Golf awards?
If yes, was it worth burning your points for it?

I own at Shadow Ridge and have done one of the one day at the Faldo School There.
Small class size (4).
Great program and pacing.
We would work on something and then he would work with each of us. It seemed the moment I was ready to ask or get some more info he was there.
Also, they did a video at the end and reemphasied what we worked on
Not just a video but he recorded everything he said and basically resaid all the tips he had given me.
I put that tape in every so often to work on a bad ahbit that had creeped back in.
It was work the money as it was only about $10 more than green fee and included a free day of golf.

I'll let you know next spring as I didn't do the John Jacobs school this year due primarily to procrastination.
