The core of any golf instruction program is its instructors and their ability to create a comprehensive work plan. The elite teaching staff at Hank Haney Golf is comprised of some of the finest golf instructors from around the world, some of whom have been learning from and teaching with Hank for over 20 years. All instruction is based on the practical, technical experience and formal training of swing plane mechanics taught through the Hank Haney Certified method.
At Hank Haney Golf Academy at Mission Hills Haikou our approach is to personalize instruction for each student to increase knowledge, confidence and control of the swing. Hank believes that it’s not just fixing one area. It's understanding the swing as a process and developing a personal, comprehensive and systematic approach to improve your game.
We’ll help each student understand the game as a “process,” which is comprised of all the different areas that make a successful player including fullswing, shortgame, course management, mental training, and fitness. You will learn the importance of ball flight, how to recognize your own swing flaws as they occur and how to make corrections. Our goal is to help you play better and to understand why. This individual formula for improvement is what makes our students stand out.
