I usually will pay special attention to the short game, positive routines, and on course play. Then to laugh and have a lot of fun!
• THREE DAY GOLF SCHOOLS FOR juniors and adults. We schedule these 3-4 times a year with invited guest instructors.

Regardless of what part of the game we are working on, the Flightscope X3 Launch Monitor, TV monitor, Smart2Move Force Plates, Boditrak Tour and V1 Sports Video Systems with two Baffler Machine Vision Cameras, alignment aids and mirror are always set up and available for use in every session. Further, I have a privately designated 20,000 square foot teaching space on the range that includes a two-bay Covershot and building. This space has full access adjacent to our private short game areas and putting greens.
Additionally, because improvement of the game is linked to proper fitted golf equipment, an important component of my teaching is based on starting with clubs that fit the student and their game. I became a certified club fitter to provide the student with the best fit club for their game. In every session, I pay special attention to my student’s clubs for a correct fit so that the club produces the result the student is expecting. To provide first-class and reliable fitting, I have a complete PING Fitting cart in my building with all shafts, grips and heads from the new G430 designs to a full women’s GLE3 fitting set. Moreover, the Edel Putting System is included in my putter fitting system and US KIDS’ CLUBS FULL SETS and Fitting system for our junior program. I also have Titleist and Calloway clubs for fittings and sales.
