I graduated high school in Colorado in '98, and I played golf all four years. Our coach drove us around and basically said "go putt," "hit the range," or "go play nine." I don't remember any instruction whatsoever during my time. Our team was decent, but I don't remember us ever winning anything. My senior year I think I averaged 74 or 75 per round, and I was third or fourth ranked on the team. None of us were country club brats, but I worked at one for my junior and senior years. I think a lot of the modern training practices started just after I graduated high school, when Tiger Woods, technology, and new health trends revolutionized the game.
