 TEACHING TOOLBOX

  • YOUR GAME.

    CAPTURED.

    ANALYZED.

    TrackMan 4 captures every detail with astounding precision. That’s club and ball data including impact location. It’s full ball-flight numbers. Normalization for all conditions. With video analysis and data tailored to you. And with no markers required, it’s convenient, quick and seamless. That’s clever.

  • Full driving range with target greens? Got it. Putting Green? Got it. Chipping Green? Yup, we have that too. Do you need to work on your bunker play? We have bunkers. Uneven lies? No worries. Let’s just say that if there is a part of your game that needs work, we have a spot for that.

    Not enough good news? Ok, we have more… Our facilities are currently receiving a major upgrade/renovation. All the stuff that makes the Traverse City Golf Performance Center so great is getting even better!

  • All the cool stuff you can do outside, you can do inside too. We have private indoor teaching bays that any of our professional golf instructors can utilize to bring you the best possible learning experience. Each private teaching bay is equipped with TrackMan 4, video equipment, and large display screens. All of your scoring records are in danger.

  • Weather got you down? We are here to lift you back up. Golf is a year-round affair here at the Traverse City Golf Performance Center. We have a large indoor putting green surrounded by chipping areas. The view? A sea of private TrackMan 4 hitting bays and a comfortable lounge. We don’t have a bunker inside but don’t think we aren’t wild enough to add one… hmmm…
