Evaluation

In the multiday programs, our evaluation begins before you even arrive, with a personality and learning assessment you complete online from the comfort of your home. This test provides insights into how you learn best: by seeing, by hearing, or by doing. Knowing this allows our instructors to communicate information to you in a manner that helps you effortlessly understand each concept.

Your arrival at the Golf Learning Center begins with a half-day assessment of your golf abilities in all areas of the game -- including the full swing, short game, putting, fitness, psychology, and club fitting. An instructor studies you at a series of stations -- driving, iron play, chipping and pitching, bunker shots, and putting -- to create a handicap of each individual skill. By analyzing this data, along with determining your personal goals, the instructional team develops a focused lesson plan unique to you. One student might go from the evaluation straight to two days working on the short game, while another might spend half the time driving and half the time working on bunker shots. Since we never start with a predetermined lesson plan, you are assured a program specifically designed for your needs.

Contact the Golf Learning Center, 912-638-5119, to book an appointment for your evaluation. 

Fitness

Your swing is as unique as your body. Size, weight, age, and injuries help determine your flexibility and power -- two key components in consistently executing your ideal swing. Fitness expert Randy Myers specializes in evaluating golfers' body types. By analyzing your physique, he can create an individualized fitness program to improve your physical ability to play the game.

Most players seek a fitness program in order to grow stronger for increased distance off the tee. But what's the use of adding power if you hurt yourself and can't play at all? Randy emphasizes the role of proper stretching in injury prevention. He also helps you understand that your body changes as you age, requiring you to stretch and exercise differently. With his personalized program, you have the tools to keep your body performing at its best, so you can play your best.

Golfers of all ages and ability level have benefited from Randy's more than 15 years of golf fitness expertise.  By appointment. 

Mental Approach

Sometimes a player's biggest obstacle to playing consistently at the highest level isn't his swing at all. Our sports psychologist, Dr. Morris Pickens, uses on-course observation to gauge how your behaviors help and hurt your play throughout a round. His personal sessions provide you the tools to think effectively, practice purposefully, and play your best no matter the pressure. Regardless of your current ability, you can raise your on-course performance by learning the right mental approach with the aid of Dr. Pickens. By appointment. 

Club Fitting

Our Club Fitters professionally fit you to play your best, whether adjusting your current clubs or analyzing you for a new set of clubs. The technology in golf equipment is changing every day. As this technology continues to progress, it is becoming imperative that golfers be fit for the golf clubs in which they are investing their money.

A qualified Club Fitter can evaluate your current equipment and make recommendations for adjustments or recommend equipment that you would be best suited to purchase. Our certified Club Fitters are equipped with the state-of-the-art fitting equipment and launch monitors. A large selection of the latest clubs from the major manufacturers is available for you to try during your visit. By appointment. 

The Sea Island Golf Learning Center is the only school in the nation with three of Golf Digest’s " America’s 50 Greatest Teachers" — Todd Anderson, Jack Lumpkin (also inducted into Georgia Golf Hall of Fame) and Gale Peterson (LPGA, PGA member). Renowned fitness trainer Randy Myers and distinguished sports psychologist Dr. Morris Pickens round out our multidisciplinary team.

Appropriate golf attire is required in the clubhouse, on the course, and in practice areas. Collared shirts must be worn at all times.
