“SAM Puttlab gives me the ability to accurately pinpoint the single root cause to the solution I provide for my player. This flat out creates clarity for the players’ mindset over the ball,” Lanyi remarked.
Bernie Najar
PGA Master Professional Bernie Najar, Director of Instruction at Caves Valley Golf Club in Maryland, works with top golfers including three-time World Long Drive Champion Kyle Berkshire and U.S. Junior Champion Bryan Kim. Using a fully equipped SAM PuttStudio+, Bernie delivers precision stroke analysis, synchronized high-speed video, projected drills and games, and advanced ball tracking to players at every level.

Formerly Mexico’s National Golf Coach for eight years, Dylan now uses a state-of-the-art SAM PuttStudio+ at Golfusion in West Palm Beach, Florida.
“Putting is still over 40% of your score and the most used club in your bag. Every player owes it to themselves to seek out a certified SAM Putting Coach to accurately assess their strengths and opportunities. Having this cutting-edge SAM PuttStudio technology at Golfusion has significantly increased our business’ revenue as well as quickly elevating our students’ skills. It’s definitely a Win-Win,” Ross noted.
