Golf is a "Lifetime Game".  It is probably our only truly lifetime sport.  You can play it from the time you can walk until the day you cannot walk.  The object of golf is quite simple.  Hit the ball from a starting point (tee) to an ending point (green) in as few hits (strokes) as possible. While the concept is simple, playing the game can be complex i.e., rules and performance frustration. Golf has three parts, learning the game, playing the game, and watching the game on the professional tours. PGA Professionals focus on teaching and playing the game.  Pine Ridge offers an outstanding area to learn as well as a beautiful course overlooking Loch Raven. The professional tours stimulate fan interest.  You may have watched the TV commercials "These guys are good", "These gals Rock" which, help develop interest in the game.

"Golf, a good walk spoiled" said Mark Twain.  If he had "Swing View Pro" technology he might have thought differently about his quote. Learning golf is a four step process. Build your foundation with fundamentals...grip...posture...alignment and stance. Develop a swinging motion, feeling the club-head which matches your physical attributes. Test your swing in competition i.e. local tournaments. Enhance your swing with a golf specific fitness program.

Seeing is truly believing.  Once you see your weakness you can make the necessary changes to change your game.  Video has the following advantages: You can see your swing tendencies in a number of different ways. Through drawing tools you can see your strengths and weaknesses. You can compare your swing to a Tour Player. We can burn a CD or email  video swing for you.
