Private lessons are available with Head Pro, Ed Tripp, or Assistant Pro, Rich Emmanuel. It is the best way to get the individual attention that a player needs to take their game to the next level. Lesson time must be scheduled directly with the pro. Cancellations of scheduled lessons must be made at lease 24 hours in advance or payment is required.
