  • The Haney Project: Charles Barkley

    Posted on March 22nd, 2009 Ethan No comments

    I’ve been watching a bit of the Haney Project on the Golf Channel and am pretty impressed with the progress that Charles Barkley is making on his swing.  

    They showed some old clips from 1994 of his swing and he had great action.  But his friend said he thought it was the tv cameras that have made him nervous and allowed his swing to get tentative and decompose.  

    One of the great things about lessons is that with proper instruction, anything is possible.  And not only in golf lessons, but in educational tutoring, tennis lessons, snowboarding lessons, music lessons and all other types.  

    The other great thing about lessons is that for me, as soon as I experienced even a little bit of improvement, my appetite for getting better grew and grew.  Excitement builds about getting better, smarter and more talented.

  • Book a Lesson in its 3rd year…

    Posted on February 12th, 2009 Ethan No comments

    We find ourselves in our 3rd year of booking lessons and we face an economy like we’ve never seen in our lifetimes.  As we continue down the road providing lesson booking and marketing service, we are revisiting our pricing model.  

    Money is tighter than ever and we want to stabalize pricing so that we don’t go bankrupt and you don’t go bankrupt.  

    Stay tuned for some updates coming RE: pricing. 

    Looking for golf lessons in Minneapolis?  There are plenty of options out there!
