English term or phrase: a bunch of
Contexte : interview d'un entraîneur de golf

Okay, with a player, like a guy who will play two times a week and he will go on the course most of the time he will go on the course, so where will you start?
With the golf flight or golf swing, or?
I usually start on the range, like yesterday I taught all day at X and it was it ***a bunch of**, I think the lowest handicap I worked with was maybe like a 10.
And I spent most of the day on the range and it was like our lessons, since this is a very traditional kind of format of lessons.

Je pense à "un peu de tout"

Merci pour vos suggestions

une bande de golfeurs du dimanche


Explanation:
Un index 10 signifie grosso modo que le joueur réalise le par sur la moitié des trous et fait bogey sur l'autre moitié : c'est correct sans être génial. Préféré à "une bande d'amateurs" (qu'ils sont) car cet extrait donne l'impression que le prof a un langage relâché et semble aimer chambrer.
