Group Golf Clinic Series

This will be a five session clinic available to men, ladies, and couples. It will include all portions of the golf game including full swing, short game, putting, trouble shots and bunkers. It will be geared towards the golfer at the ability level they arrive. The focus will be to help golfers learn simple, repeatable ways to get around the golf course in a fun and effective way. At the end of each session, the participants will have a practice frformula to work on their own game between sessions. A special benefit of the series will be session 5. It will make use of the Hyatt’s 20 TopTracer bays to virtually play one of a variety of golf courses in the US or around the world. A thorough clinic flyer is available and will describe each session in detail. To receive one of the flyers, email Dick Logan, PGA @ dickloganpgagolf@gmail.com
