Get Golf Ready
Get Golf Ready offers expert instruction designed for new golfers, with four easy, fun and affordable lessons from our professionals. You’ll enjoy learning the basics of golf - rules, etiquette, fundamentals and navigating the course. By the time you “graduate,” you’ll have the tools necessary to get out and play with confidence! Real, on-course playing opportunities are the best way to increase your comfort level, and that’s what makes Get Golf Ready so much fun.
Get Golf Ready 2
Get Golf Ready 2 offers a curriculum that is a continuation of Get Golf Ready. This program is designed for the intermediate golfer looking for instruction beyond the beginner stages. During this five lesson program you will gain knowledge in more progressive topics including putting strategy, equipment fitting, trouble shots, course management and much more.
Ladies and Senior Clinics
Our “LADIES ONLY” and “SENIORS ONLY” Golf Clinics provide players an avenue to learn golf in a non-threatening environment, with other like-minded individuals of all levels. Students will rotate through stations of different topics, and will finish by playing on the course. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet others who are learning golf and no equipment is neccesary.
One Day Golf Schools
One Day Golf Schools are designed to help improve all aspects of your golf game. The program will help you better understand how to effectively and efficiently improve your putting, chipping, pitching, bunker play and full swing. Instruction will be followed by on-course instruction and LUNCH IS INCLUDED.
Specialty Clinics
Wedge Clinics - Did you know that two out of every three shots occur from within 125 yards of the hole? The key to scoring is learning the secrets from 125 and in. Join Legacy Ridge and Titleist, TaylorMade, Ping and Mizuno for a Wedge Clinic. You’ll receive two hours of expert short game instruction that will help you in all critical situations – chips, pitches, bunkers, flops and more. Every attendee will also receive a personalized new wedge. This is truly one of the best investments you can make in your golf game in 2019 – Don’t miss your chance to truly learn how to shoot lower scores!
Tips and Sips- Join us for an hour with current friends (or sign up to make new ones) to learn some of the basics of golf in a casual atmosphere. The wine bottles are opened and available throughout the clinic. Once the clinic is finished, we like to move the fun to the patio to finish off the wine (maybe have some more), enjoy the view and have fun hanging out together!
