Swapfolk / Skills / Golf

Golf lessons in Austin, traded instead of paid.

Find someone in Austin who knows golf and wants what you know. You teach them your thing, they teach you theirs. A trade, not a lesson you pay for.

Austin opens at 30 founding members.

Golf lessons in Austin cost more than almost any other skill on this list, and a beginner needs several before the game is fun. The city also has thousands of low handicap players who learned from someone and would happily pass it on for a skill they want.

What a golf swap looks like

Session one is at the range: grip, setup and making solid contact with a seven iron. Then short game, then a few holes on a muni with your partner walking you through course management. Range sessions usually happen at one of Austin's municipal courses. In return you teach your thing, usually over coffee afterwards.

Questions about golf swaps

What does the first golf swap cover?
Usually grip, setup, and making solid contact with a seven iron on the range. After that you and your partner decide what to work on next.
How much do golf lessons cost on Swapfolk?
Nothing in money. You trade a skill you have for golf. Paid sessions may be an option later, but the trade is the core of Swapfolk.
Where in Austin do golf swaps happen?
Wherever the two of you agree: a coffee shop, a park, a kitchen, a gym, a studio, or on video. Most swaps meet somewhere central, east or south, and the form asks which part of Austin you are in so matches are close.
What can I trade for golf?
Anything you are good at. The people offering golf on Swapfolk have asked for website help, languages, marketing help, cooking and music, but every list is different. Put what you know on the form.
