What is the quickest way to lower my score?

» Without doubt the easiest way to get rid of strokes is to improve your short game (100 yards and in). We offer clinics dedicated specifically to this area of the game. It is not uncommon for an average golfer to shave 5 to 7 strokes off their score with an improved short game.

I'm thinking of purchasing new clubs. Should I take lessons first and get fit for clubs?

» We recommend taking a lesson or better yet signing up for a package before ordering a new set. This way your swing will be improved and the custom fit set will match your "new" swing.

I have a five year old child who loves golf. Should I sign him/her up for lessons?

» As a general rule of thumb, we see the age of seven as a good starting point for lessons, but honestly, a lot depends on the individual child. The most important thing is that their first experiences with golf be positive with the majority of the emphasis on fun with improvement coming as benefit of their enjoyment. We offer discounts on our private lessons to juniors, age 15 and under. We also feel like we have one of the best Junior Golf Academies around. Check out our information on this website regarding our Junior Golf Academy.

I'm a 25 handicap who has been playing golf for some time. Will lessons do more harm than good?

» As long as you dedicate yourself to spending time working on the information that has been given to you, lessons will help your game immensely.  Our goal is to simplify your golf swing, not change it completely.

I've never played golf before but would like to learn. How do you recommend I get started?

» We offer beginning golf clinics which are perfect for those just taking up the game.  Classes last four weeks and cover the fundamentals of a sound golf swing along with rules and etiquette.  Clubs and practice balls are included in the price.

What are the benefits of video analysis?

» Video analysis allows you to distinguish between what is real and what is feel. Many times you may feel like you are doing one thing, but in reality you are doing something quite different. By using video, the learning process is simplified and made quicker by defining the root cause of your problems. Also, seeing changes in your swing while taking lessons will keep you motivated with the visible progress you are making.
