Denny Appel, PGA-Certified Class-A Professional Instructor

Practice does not make perfect; it makes permanent, which means that the longer you wait to start practicing the right way, the more time you'll spend playing the wrong way. So, get started on the right track with today's feature: $25 for One 60-Minute Private Lesson with PGA-Certified Class A Professional Instructor Denny Appel at Four Seasons Golf Center in Columbus ($50 Value. Expires October 31, 2012.)

PGA-certified Class A professional instructor Denny Appel's teaching philosophy is simple. He believes the ability to improve comes with the desire to want to, and that keeping it simple is the best way to go about game improvement. Therefore, he reduces the complexity of the sport by teaching you to maintain your address position relationship to the ball and target line. It makes sense: If you're aiming the wrong way to start, your naturally going to try to correct with too much movement in your swing and wrists and an improper grip.

Denny has been a PGA member since 1980 and as far as teaching credentials go, he’s at the top of the list as a Class A PGA member in good standing. He’s a thinking lad, having graduated from Michigan State University with an undergraduate degree in sociology, and there’s a well-known saying that Denny abides by that you likely know, "Golf is not a hard game to play, but it is a hard game to be good at."

The above statement should apply to learning the fundamentals of golf, so by simply focusing on sound fundamentals like grip, address position, targets line and a few others – you’ve already covered half of the equation.

So many teaching professionals want to hook you up to the latest-and-greatest bells and whistles without teaching you the very fundamentals you need to walk away with for continued improvement. It's safe to say you probably won't be thinking about Denny on the first tee; however, it goes without saying that you will be thinking about the fundamentals that Denny taught you on your first swing.

Whether you’re a swayer, snap-hooker, slicer or you’re just looking to get as low as you can in the fastest time possible, don’t miss this opportunity to hone your game for the 2012 season with one of the best the game has to offer, with Professional Instructor Denny Appel.
