Learn To Play Golf

Hello, I want to learn to play golf and I believe Thailand is an economical place to do it. I've been on holiday to Thailand so I know a bit about the country. Does anyone recommend a decent location where I can learn golf and have a holiday too? Thanks

Thailand is very expensive to play golf - green fee, caddy, fee, caddy tip, caddy drinks....will run you 2,000-5,000+ thb on most courses.

In terms of learning to play, lessons are available at most driving ranges, usually at 1,000 thb (for 30-40 min).

OK Bud, Can I use a bar girl as a Caddy and provide her with a packed lunch? That should save me some cash in terms of tips, drinks and Caddy fees. It would be just the green fee and teacher then.

Errr...nope. The golf club supplies the caddy.

Also so worth noting that the chances of a bar girl agreeing to walk around a golf course are slim...Thai gals avoid the sun like the plague.

I doubt that.

Or if by 'bit' you really mean a 'bit'.
