Hi everybody,

Here is my story in a nutshell.

I'm 52 years old. Been playing since I was 16. At times years ago I've played fairly well. High 70's to low 80's.

I haven't played much at all in the last 10 years. I'm looking to get back into the game but I need some quality PGA instruction to guide me.

Does anybody have any experience with PGA teaching pro's near Savannah, Georgia?

Thanks for your help.

Chuck

I'd imagine you could make the short trip to Hilton head and find some great instruction.

I'd call Amanda Workman at Savannah College of Art and Design for some advice.  I used to go to high school with her.  She's pretty sharp and might have some leads for you.  Tell her Kris sent you.....unless you're creepy.  Then just say you got an anonymous tip .

At age 52, and not having played much in the past 10 years??  You need PGA Master Professional Don "The Swing Surgeon" Trahan. He teaches at Old South Golf Links in Bluffton, SC between Savannah and Hilton Head.  PGA Tour player D.J. Trahan is his son.

I would like to recommend you contact Ed Dennis at the Black Creek golf course. The course

is located off I-16 in Ellabelle, Ga., about 20 miles outside of Savannah.  Ed is a PGA instructor

and will listen and plan your practices for your style of play. As a golfer who shot a real 100+,

I'm now scoring in the 80-85 range thanks to the lessons I received from Ed. Ed's # is 912-858-4653.

    • Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow. 
    • Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills. 
    • That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness. 
    • Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.    
    • Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
