Players Elite Golf Academy, Orland Park

Since becoming a pro instructor in 1988, teaching professional Michael Camastro has fine-tuned the swings of students in more than 25,000 lessons. When Michael encounters a new swing, he looks for subtle adjustments he can make to improve it without disrupting the natural style of the students' form. To help reveal problematic swing habits or the translucent souls of any loitering poltergeists, Michael uses slow-motion video swing analysis in all private lessons, one of many technological teaching aids he calls upon to enhance his diagnostic powers. With a staff that consists of two head instructors and three assistant aces, Players Elite Golf Academy spreads score-shaving tactics and techniques in private, group, and imaginary golf lessons.
