Significant on-course improvement is within every local golfer’s reach
Centennial, Colo. (May 3, 2013) – GolfTEC, the world leader in golf improvement, is opening its newest center between Harbison State Forest and Lake Murray in Columbia, S.C. The new Columbiana Center is located inside the Golfsmith store at 252 Harbison Blvd.
GolfTEC Columbiana will be celebrating their Grand Opening along with Golfsmith on Saturday, May 4. The event will include great instructional clinics, free demo lessons and chances to win great prizes.
Every golfer wants to shoot lower scores, hit the ball longer and straighter, and have more fun on the course. And now that is possible, thanks to GolfTEC, which already has more than 170 improvement centers in North America, and has given more than 4 million lessons since teeing off in 1995.
Most lessons are taught one-on-one in private, indoor bays that maximize the learning experience. GolfTEC utilizes proprietary teaching technology and the skills of its Certified Personal Coaches to help golfers improve their skills and increase their enjoyment of the game.
The Columbiana facility, which will open with two hitting bays, is under the direction of veteran Certified Coach Jim Hackett, who has taught more than 1,000 GolfTEC lessons. Hackett and his staff will use the company’s proven Proven Path to deliver maximum improvement and lasting results to players of all ages and abilities.
GolfTEC’s proprietary g-SWING system combines digital video with motion measurement, capturing body positions at 24 different points throughout the swing. A simple RED-YELLOW-GREEN display guides instruction and reinforces swing changes.
But the lesson doesn’t end at the center’s doors. Using the personalized, online Player Performance Center, every student can review his lessons-including full video and the coach’s instructions-anytime and anywhere over the internet.
“It is exciting to bring this new level of golf instruction to the Columbia area,” said Hackett, a member of the PGA of America who has been teaching for 19 years. “We are looking forward to helping area golfers enjoy the game more and shoot better scores.”
