Feature:Ultimate Learning Experience
Sea Island Resorts
Situated on the Intracoastal Waterway, the Sea Island Golf Learning Center has to be the prettiest spot anywhere to work on your game. It’s easy to get distracted as you hit balls or putts, but instructors like Jack Lumpkin, Todd Anderson, Gale Peterson and putting guru Mike Shannon will make sure you stay focused.
With the way these experts dissect your faults, the center is the Mayo Clinic of golf. Bring your ailing game here and you’ll leave feeling, if not necessarily playing, like Tiger Woods or Davis Love III, a local who works with Lumpkin and frequents the range.
For the best results, choose the center’s Three-Day Golf Improvement Plan, a 16-hour, holistic evaluation and instruction school. During the first day, the instructors, along with sports psychologist Dr. Morris Pickens and fitness director Randy Myers, will assess your game, body, mind and equipment. Prescription in hand, you then spend the following two days in a two-to-one student-teacher ratio working on the designated weaknesses.
Should you need a break from all that technique and theory, you’re at the heart of one of the best golf resorts in the world. So you can relax at the beach, go to the spa or enjoy a steak at Colt & Alison.
More likely, though, the Learning Center will inspire you to keep working on straightening out that slice.
