Scott Schulte, PGA-Certified Teaching Professional

The days are getting longer, which can only mean that the season soon will be firing back up. We all owe it to ourselves to start strong — and leave all the shanks at home. For those of you who wish to get the most out of the new season, today's feature is for you: One 60-minute private lesson with PGA Professional Instructor Scott Schulte.

Certified by the PGA to help you improve your game, Scott Schulte offers you a piece of the knowledge he's gathered over the course of his 10 years of teaching experience. He has helped golfers of all ages and skill levels improve their golf game and fine-tune their swing mechanics. Throughout your private lesson, your swing will be recorded and analyzed using the V1 swing software.

This powerful tool allows you to see every piece of your swing in precise detail, and can even compare your swing to your favorite PGA Tour players. When coupled with expert guidance from Mr. Schulte, you'll be able to identify, isolate and control your bad habits and emphasize the good. Best of all, you'll be able to take home a DVD copy of the video you compiled during your lesson, meaning you'll have plenty to keep you busy during the off-season.

These private lessons are scheduled in advance at one of two locations: The Orchards Golf Club in Washington or CJ Barrymore's in Clinton Township.

While working with PGA Professional Instructor Scott Schulte, you will reinforce the fundamentals of the golf swing, discover your most egregious faults and learn the the optimal positions for each segment of your unique swing, helping to give your game a strong start in 2011.
