Let me help you to be the best golfer you can be!
​
Over the past 40 years I have learned that the golf swing although complex has some simple but very important fundamentals that must be achieved to make it more efficient and natural.
I try to take all my students to the next level by understanding their goals and working with what I see in front of me. It is important to me to not only point out the problems but also to clearly explain a solution to help them improve. I want each of my students to be able to understand their golf swing, so they can know how to practice and improve on there own. My instruction is tailored to the student’s personal goals, their physical capabilities and or limitations and their knowledge of the game.
​
“Don’t simply tell a student what he is doing wrong – that’s not much help. You must explain to them what they should be doing, why it is correct, and the results it will produce. Then work really hard to get it across so they understand what you are talking about.” Ben Hogan

Tuesday Night Two Man
Get your partner and come play in our fun two-man partner league every Tuesday night from the start of May until the end of September.
​
You and your partner play a different team each week. All matches are 9-hole match play, where your low-handicap player has an individual 9-hole match against the other team's low-handicap player. The higher-handicap players of each team have the same individual match. Matches start after 5:00 pm each week with scheduled tee times.
Points and handicaps are tracked for the season, ending with prizes and a wind-up dinner (provided for free by Chef Karla!)
Thursday Night
Men's Skins Games
This is a fun individual men's league every Thursday afternoon/evening. You don't have to play every week, but your chances of winning great prizes increase the more you play!
​
To play every Thursday, you have to play in at least a threesome of participants (for verification), but we encourage larger groups (as long as you play fast enough!) Scores are registered each Thursday and based on your nights play, you have a shot at winning skins. The value of skins increase the longer holes are carried over.
​
You don't want to miss many Thursday's because this year we're tracking the entire season's statistics and we have great prizes in a bunch of categories!
​
The season runs every Thursday beginning in the first week of May until the last week in September. Weather permitting we sometimes start a little earlier or extend the season. At least 12 players have to play on a given Thursday for play to count towards season stats. It's a benefit to play in poor weather because provided there are at least 12 players out, your chances of winning will improve!
