PRIVATE GROUP LESSONS:$55.00 per person-1 hour lesson (3- 4 golfers per group) An excellent opportunity for a small group of a similar ability level to receive instruction. Wheter beginning or trying to break eighty, this small group approach is most effective in helping each participant lower his/her scores. Focusing on specific group needs, the instructor will aid each individual as in a private lesson. The advantage clearly being economical as this lesson is one full hour in duration.

Designed for those who want what the tour players have; equipment that maximizes the players ability. Through the use of the Flight Scope Launch Monitor, we can pinpoint exact diagnoses for swing failures. Angle of attack, spin rate, smash factor, horizontal and vertical launch, are some of Flight Scope’s capabilities. With all of the mathematical factors in a golf swing, sometimes this approach can show what they naked eye cannot catch!

*$50 fee will be waived with purchase of new equipment.

We offer the most comprehensive, state-of-the-art professional swing analysis available today!

Some of us need a visual aid to learn something new. We may say your swing is steep, or your swing too much with your arms, and to lead with your lower body. What does all of this mean? See for yourself. Sometimes what we are actually doing is far different than what we perceive we are doing. That’s where the video comes into play.

See first hand, why you may be told that your take away is inside or you release the club too early. The video analysis features a video of your swing with comments by one of our golf pros. They will guide you through your swing, and pinpoint inaccuracies and flaws. Your will receive a digital copy of your lesson to watch at home.
