Private Lessons
Private lessons are the most effective way for advanced junior golfers to take their game to the next level. With one-on-one instruction, each session is fully tailored to the student’s individual goals, strengths, and areas for improvement.
Whether the focus is on swing mechanics, short game performance, course management, or tournament preparation, personalized coaching allows juniors to make faster and more meaningful progress.
Cost: Private lessons starting at $70
Semi-Private Lessons
A 30 minute semi-private lesson for two people with PGA Director of Instruction Patrick Ackerman.
His teaching style focuses on adapting to each player’s natural swing, physical limitations, and goals, helping students make steady and lasting improvement.
An additional $10 fee is included for the second person.
Clubs can be provided if you don’t already have them, and Patrick can also help guide you toward the right equipment when the time comes.
Cost: Starting at $225 for three lessons
On Course Lessons
On-course 3, 6, or 9 hole lessons with Patrick provide a unique opportunity to learn the game in a real playing environment. These sessions focus on course strategy, shot selection, and decision making while helping golfers better understand how to manage different situations they encounter during a round.
Playing alongside an experienced instructor allows students to gain valuable insight into club selection, reading lies, navigating hazards, and developing a smarter approach to each hole. These lessons are also a great way to build confidence and learn how to turn practice skills into better on-course performance.
