New to Golf
3 One Hour Classes

New to Golf is a great intro to the game of golf for those that are curious to see what golf is all about.  The series of three one hour classes are best suited for those who have never played before and those that have a little more experience looking to improve upon their skills.  Classes will cover basic fundamentals i.e. how to hold on to the club (grip), how to position your feet and body (posture), and how to perform the basic swing.  As the series of three classes progresses students will dive deeper into how to control the direction of the ball by understanding what influences the balls direction.  All classes are taught by Ron Sagara, a PGA Class A Professional, with 27 years of teaching experience at Mariners Point.  Equipment will be provided if needed.
