What You'll Get
Besides improving one's game on the links, personalized golf instruction enables highly accurate paint flinging and better-aimed javelin throws at passing comets. Aim for the stars with this Groupon.
Choose from Three Options
- $49 for one swing or putting evaluation (a $165 value)
- $99 for two swing or putting evaluations and a full-set analysis (a $415 value)
- $199 for two swing or putting evaluations, a full-set analysis, and three private lessons (a $955 value)
During an evaluation, students choose between a full-swing analysis and a putting analysis. Sensors strapped to the student's chest, waist, and lead wrist chart the body's torso twists, and an infrared transmitter clipped to the club captures the motion of the club's head, offering easy-to-understand feedback. The V1 digital-coaching system can also compare swings to that of a PGA professional, with an instructor using the compiled information to identify areas for improvement.
The second option of this deal supplements swing and putting info with a full club analysis, and the third option follows up the evaluation with three private, one-hour lessons.
