What makes it special?
No one wants to sit in a classroom and listen to someone talk about the rules, right? (I mean, poke me in the eye why don’t you?)
The format is designed to cover all the major rules, which ensures you go home feeling more confident about how to apply the rules to your advantage out on the course. And there’s always plenty of time for your questions!
Golfing Girlfriend?
Golf should be fun rather than intimating.
The On-Course Rules Experience is a fun time on the course, and a fabulous way to learn the game of golf.
Get your teaching pro involved and we’ll add a clinic for short game or bunkers, or perhaps a 9 hole round.
Let’s throw in a trunk show, cocktail hour and now we’re talking!
Gather a few of your golfing girlfriends and we’ll set up an event that fits perfectly for your group.
If that sounds like something you would want, reach out!
Country Club?
Want to help your ladies better enjoy the game of golf and gain more confidence? We tailor the level of the class to your ladies’ experience level and include delightful demonstrations, Q&A’s and laughter.
Being on their home course allows the students to apply what they learn immediately, which enables them to retain the information.
We often add a short-game clinic featuring your PGA teaching pro or a guest instructor, followed by a cocktail hour, trunk show or other social activity
If you’d like to help your ladies learn the rules, and show them how much they’re valued at your club, let’s chat!
