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.
