Practice with the Pro

This is not a lesson!! There will be none to little supervision during his practice.

This is your chance to practice at the same time doing the same drills, using the same training aids, and learning by watching and emulating the PAC’s only teaching professional.

The cost is $10 / session payable directly to Mark. If you are not a current short Game Center passholder, you are required to pay Pacific Springs the $13 daily fee prior to arriving at the practice area.

Mark’s philosophy is that practice without purpose is mostly useless. For many of you, there is a simple reason why your driving range and short game practice doesn’t translate to the golf course. Come learn and see for yourself how to make your limited practice time more fruitful.

Mark’s practice schedule will be posted in the golf shop each week or in pga coach. Please sign up ahead of time so he knows how many stations to set up prior to. The earlier the better but last- minute stragglers will be welcomed.

Meet the Pro: Mark McElligott

Mark has been playing golf for more than 50 years. He is an associate in the PGA teaching and coaching track which he should be completed with next year. Mark competed competitively as a young junior but stopped due to his love for many other sports. He always had golf in his life as he raised kids, moved up the corporate ladder, and ran his own business alongside his wife until selling it and retiring a few years ago. Through much of this time, he coached multiple sports. Besides coaching our PGA Jr League, Mark also coaches both the boys and girls' tennis teams at Skutt High School. He is available for personal and group lessons and loves to do on-course lessons the most.
