Swing Into Spring Clinic




Today was our first "Swing Into Spring" golf clinic for women. 31 ladies attended the clinic where they enjoyed lunch, learned from Maureen Melleky, a registered Physical Therapist, and finally, dodged the rain outside getting tips on the full swing, putting, and chipping. The ladies were treated to a fascinating presentation by Maureen who is a certified Body Balance For Performance Specialist. She ran the group through a series of strength and flexibility tests showing how the body is supposed to be used in the golf swing.


The rain held off just long enough for everyone to get out to the Lyman Orchards Practice Facilities and get a few tips from our Pro's. They were treated to full swing tips from Dick Bierkan, chipping tips from Dave Christenson, and putting tips from Jason Beffert. The pro's were very impressed by the improvement throughout the day.

The next Ladies event will be at Lyman Orchards Golf Club on June 18. There will be a free clinic at 7:30 am for all ladies signed up for golf. The golf event will start at 8:30. If you would like to play but still may not feel ready to play the golf course, come to Lyman Orchards on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 5:30 to learn the etiquette in a non-intimidating environment.
