South Lakes Golf Instruction

No golf workshop, school, clinic or individual lesson will take you beyond the skill and experience of the instructor. We have assembled a team of instructors unparalleled in the area in teaching, coaching, and playing ability. Not only can South Lakes Golf Professionals teach, but they all compete at the professional level locally and beyond. Nothing keeps an instructor more sharp and able to relate, than to experience the emotions and tension that come from competitive golf. They know what it’s like to bring the new swing to the first tee when it counts and they can help you do it too!

Our South Lake pros continue to hone their skills each week and utilize the best in classic and new golf instruction techniques. If you are looking to improve or have a question, talk with our pros. It could be the best thing you ever do for your golf game.
