| Description |
Kip Puterbaughs Aviara Golf Academy
Ranked One of America’s Top 25 Golf Schools by Golf Magazine
Improving your golf game begins with learning the fundamentals of the golf swing. At the Aviara Golf Academy learning center, you’ll see frame-by-frame stop action video footage of the games’ greats. You’ll learn that though their golf swings look different to the naked eye, there is a “common denominator” of proven fundamentals that all great players have.
That is exactly what we teach. The proven fundamentals. The first step in building a consistent swing that will work for you is learning what has worked for the world’s top players for years. Our state-of-the-art learning center was designed expressly for teaching golf and is located at the luxurious Four Seasons Resort Aviara.
