Nationally Recognized Golf School Expands to La Quinta/Palm Springs

Golf Made Simple

La Quinta, CA- Golf Made Simple has announced the expansion of their nationally recognized Golf School into the La Quinta/Palm Springs area of California.  Rated as #3 in the country by Men's Journal, Golf Made Simple is led by PGA professional, Marc Solomon and his certified Instructors in St. Augustine, Amelia Island, Tampa and Boca Raton, Florida – along with San Diego and Lake Tahoe, California. 

Golf Made Simple is excited about their new partnership with the beautiful Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta, Home of the 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 PGA Tour LG Skins Game. This 18-hole championship Southern California golf course has been played by Tour Players such as Tiger Woods, Annika Sorenstam, Adam Scott and Fred Couples, along with Phil Mickelson, Fred Funk and Mark O'Meara.

“The unique teaching philosophy of Golf Made Simple will be an amazing addition to this area and our facility,” says Brandon O’Neill, general manager at Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta.  “We are very proud to offer this type of golf school – their personal instruction mirrors the type of high-quality experience we try to offer our guests each and every day.” 

The philosophy of Golf Made Simple is what you would expect – simple.  Instruction focuses on improving a Golfer’s natural swing so that they can learn to swing smoother and establish a more consistent golf swing without having to change their grip or stance.  Golfers learn how to generate one consistent golf swing for all 13 irons and woods as opposed to having a different swing for each club.  In fact, 92% of Golfers who come to Golf Made Simple looking to break 90 for the first time have been successful in reaching their goal.

Golf Made Simple will be kicking off the opening of their La Quinta/Palm Springs location on November 30^th, 2007 with their first 3-day class.  3-day classes will then continue every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, along with Friday, Saturday and Sunday –through May 28^th, 2008  Wataru ‘Wat’ Tomita, one of Golf Made Simple’s top instructors (and who is fluent in English and Japanese), will be leading classes at La Quinta.

Accommodations have been set-up at the new Embassy Suites that also offers additional accommodations in their beautiful casitas. With a pool, fitness center and full breakfast each morning – you can’t go wrong. Then add that you’re right across the street from Old Town La Quinta with Clint Eastwood’s Hogs Breath Saloon – and you’re in good hands.

Some people may ask why Golf Made Simple wanted to have their Palm Springs location at the Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta when there are 130 other golf courses in the Coachella Valley.  One of the reasons they chose the Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta was because of reputation.  Golfers will not pass up the opportunity to play and learn on a PGA Tour host venue – especially a golf course that hosted the LG Skins Game four times with Tiger Woods participating twice!

Set at the base of the majestic Santa Rosa Mountains of Palm Desert, California, Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta is a Gary Panks-design that insures challenge and reward for players of all skill levels.  This award winning golf course also boasts a teaching area for Golf Made Simple, a short game teaching facility, target greens, and PGA Tour quality putting greens.   

Recognized as one of the world's premier golf course regions, and just off of Route 10, La Quinta is an ideal destination get away for Golfers looking forward to simplifying and thus improving their golf game with Golf Made Simple.  Every year, Golfers from around the world make their annual migration to the Palm Springs area during the December to May season for guaranteed warmth, sunshine and green golf courses.  Golfers can enjoy all the benefits of a GMS program in Southern California (including 3 nights lodging) with package rates that start from $1,549.

Golf Made Simple offers 3, 5 and 7-day classes with a maximum of four golfers per class to ensure a customized experience.  Each day Golfers will have 9-holes of On-Course Instruction with their Instructor to integrate their improved ball-striking techniques into their on the golf course game, along with learning to establish their personal PLAN.  In addition, once the Golfer gets back home, the GMS Instructor For Life program guarantees that each Golfer receives free customized advice, tips, drills and exercises for the life of their game.  It’s Golf Made Simple.  Please visit www.GolfMadeSimple.com and http://www.trilogygolfclub.com/laquinta for more details.
