Patrick and Dina also said they often make arrangements for customers who want to show their grandchildren the game by putting them off to the side in the area usually reserved for private lessons with the pros. Dina said to see her in the office and she would be pleased to try to accommodate you.

Again for reasons of liability and noise, they don't want you in the same hitting station with another person, adult or child.
Richie,

Thank you for such a good explanation. I know that when I was a new golfer, I did ind it distracting for other patrons to be providing instruction to their friends/family.
