DG MASTERY
DG Mastery answers the question " how good can I get? "
Our Mastery program is dedicated for our older and most invested players, marking a transition from deliberate play towards deliberate practice; chiseling out and fine-tuning critical factors in technique, situational awareness, and physical - mental readiness.
DG Mastery is for our students that seek golf competency for life all the way to a successful campaign at the high school, college, and professional ranks.
DG Mastery - Lake Bluff is created and run by DiscoverGolf Founder Richard Franklin. Richard Franklin is widely regarded as one of the top junior golf coaches in the country with over 20 years experience working exclusively with juniors.
“ DiscoverGolfs Mastery Program is one of my favorite programs. As I tell our Mastery students .. golf is the easy part , its learning the master’s tendenies that matter most. What does that mean ? Can you snap into focus when its called upon you ? Can you have the courage to not care what others think about you when youre trying to get better? Can you forge your own style , your own sense of self reliance ? Our Mastery program is different than most .. we don’t pin up our college scholarships … we simply invite kids 12 or over to use golf as a medium for self mastery and are looking to answer to the question “ how good can I get ? ””

Supplements for 2025/26 Mastery Programs:
Membership Access : Its one thing to learn the swing , its quite another to independently forge it. For our most serious players , we offer keyless entry to use the facility during non - class time.
Private Coaching : Our group training programs are crucial for comprehensive covering of all skills and is the backbone of the Mastery Program. Some of our players would do well with supplemental private coaching for additional refinement and or a deep dive into a certain skill dimension.
