A Day at Camp
Most participants in this camp will hit more golf balls during the 4 days than they will any other time, a golf glove will help so the hands won't get too sore. We will cover every aspect of the game including golf course etiquette, rules of golf, the short game, iron play, woods and putting. The goal is to develop proper golfing skills, boost self esteem, and to adopt a positive competitive attitude. Golf clubs and balls, during camp sessions, are provided by Paradise Golf.
