Hello! I'm a beginner golfer and am looking to go on a trip where I can play a bunch to improve! Does anyone know of any type of adult golf camp where I could for like 3 days to a week to just play and take lessons, preferably near New York or somewhere in Texas? Thanks!

It might be tough in the COVID-19 times, but plenty of instructors have offered golf camps. Dave Pelz, for example, had putting and/or short game camps.

Your best bet right now is to contact an instructor you like and want to work with and see what kind of custom thing they might be interested in putting together for you.

I've done that for a few people this year already.

Look up "The Original Golf School Mount Snow".  It has been literally decades since I went there.  It is a reasonable drive from NYC (located in southern Vermont).  I suspect there are similar programs in Texas.

I would not recommend "Mount Snow" or any other "golf camp" unless one is very much a beginner.  Group instruction is fine for picking up the very basics but once one has played a bit, individual instruction directed at your personal game is going to produce better results.

I know that Pinehurst in NC does multi-day golf schools, and I know the both the golf course and the resort's hotels are open for business.

Same area as Dave mentioned above, Pine Needles has a golf academy and something they call a Golfari (I think it has a more social aspect as well). I haven't done the academy, but have played both Pine Needles and Mid Pines and they are great tracks.

Players play, tough players win!

      I played in a scramble that got rained out. The day was forecast for rain and my 3 partners bailed. I went anyway as I took the day off and did not feel like going to work. Not sure how many groups showed up, but I was assured that I could hit all four shots if I wanted. Long story short: I played 13 holes and was nine under with a couple holes at the end where I was having trouble hanging on to the club due to the rain. If I hit a drive that I deemed acceptable I did not hit another. I probably only took 3 or 4 mulligan tee shots on par 4 and 5 holes. Approach shots I probably hit at least two sometimes 3. I don't recall missing a GIR. Once on the putting surface is where I shined with 4 attempts. I was amazed at how successful I was on these long putts when I had 4 balls sitting there and then hit them in quick succession. One would go high, then one a little low and then the third or fourth would often drop. I "won" the event and got some nice prizes. I was a bit embarrassed by it all.
