Golf Academy

"We have taken all of the elements already used in our Golf Club House building and charming Golf and Lake Cottages to ensure this facility blends in with the natural surroundings of Cuscowilla. We are very excited to have Lynn Blake, from Lynn Blake Golf join our Teaching Center, who along with Jarrod Clark and his Assistant Pro's now have a year round facility to share their knowledge and skills with all of our golfers to assist them in mastering their game."

The 2,200 square foot building is located on the back of the driving range and hosts 6 open hitting bays for year round all weather golf practice, as well as an indoor teaching area complete with state of the art cameras and computer software programs for swing analysis and a Club Lounge with guests' amenities and an open stone fireplace.

Along with Cuscowilla's Head Pro Jarrod Clark (PGA Certified Instructor), Wayne Watts (PGA Certified Instructor) and his Assistant Pro's, Lynn Blake will be teaching at the new learning center. Having taught more than a dozen PGA Tour players, Blake is an experienced teacher and Certified Instructor in the sport of golf and he looks forward to joining the Cuscowilla Golf Team to help Cuscowilla property owners, members and resort guests perfect the game of golf.

Lynn explained "from the beginning, we had a dream: To create a world-class teaching facility staffed by world-class instructors on a world-class golf course. I am excited, humbled and challenged by our mission and can hardly wait to welcome each of you to our new learning center and onto the cutting edge of golf instruction." "My system – and it is a system, not a method –– is unique because it is based on alignments, not positions. Those alignments are based on geometrical relationships and the laws of force and motion, not on ‘expert’ opinion. They are also simple and easy to see and learn. The problem with Position Golf – as opposed to Alignment Golf –– is that it is possible to execute a prescribed position perfectly, yet still miss the ball. Each of the Three Zones – body, arms and hands – have definite assignments and alignments to execute. The end result of our training is a coordinated and aligned golf stroke that the ball respects. For our students, that means improved ball striking, lower scores and more enjoyment of the game."
