Happy Fourth of July everyone! With it falling on a Wednesday, we've been celebrating for a week already. Golf outings, cookouts, and parades; what a great time of year. I hope everyone is enjoying it as much as we are.

Also, for those of you who collect scorecards, I've posted about ten new ones on our sister site. They include (among others): Bighorn, Torrey Pines, CogHill, Harbour Town, Castle Pines, and many others. To view them, please visit:http://ogsgolf.com/golf/scorecards.html

This month, I also received an email from a gentleman who is interested in becoming a golf instructor. He has a few questions that I couldn't help him with. Please take the time to read his posting, and if you can help, please do.

Can you give me any advice or help ??

I am currently looking to change my career and hopefully become a golf instructor either in the U.K or the U.S. After browsing the web I have come across several organisations that offer such training for this and I wondered if you could recommend any one particular organisations. The four that I have found are:

1, U.S.G.T.F
2, P.G.T.A.A
3, P.G.T.G.A
4, LEARN TO TEACH GOLF (BILL SKELLEY & CHUCK EVANS)

They all seem to offer similar packages of a similar price, some require a playability test to pass whilst others don't. Can you recommend any of these or do you know of any others?

I am currently living in the U.K but I will be willing to relocate to the U.S or anywhere else in the world. I have a handicap of 15 at the moment but will be looking to improve on that.

I very much hope you can be of any help, or that you can put me in touch with someone that can, as I am very determined and eager to accomplish my dream. Look forward to hearing from you.
