1. Private Instruction

If there is a part of your game that needs specific attention, schedule an hour or half-hour session with one of our PGA professionals to get you back on track.

2. Playing Lessons

Having trouble translating skills into scores? Take a playing lesson and learn course management, shot selection strategy, and mental techniques that can help shave off a few strokes. We will also take an opportunity to brush up on your rules and etiquette as well.

3. Group Instruction

Gather your friends and family members for one or two days of group golf instruction with Arizona’s #1 AimPoint instructor, Gordon Bennett. AimPoint is a tour-proven green reading methodology allowing any golfer to read greens like a pro.

4. Club Fitting

Golf equipment has changed dramatically over the past few years. Playing with poor-fitting equipment can make your game a struggle. A proper-fitting set of clubs, however, can help you maximize your skill level and better enjoy the game. Any golfer, regardless of ability, can benefit from custom club fitting, whether you need a new set or adjustments to your existing ones. By using the FlightScope X3 or Trackman III launch monitor, the most advanced Doppler radar tracking for golf, we provide the most accurate data and thus, the best fit custom clubs. Our staff are certified fitters for Titleist, Ping, and Callaway equipment.
