I am interested in learning how to play golf. Anyone know any good areas of recommendation in the Wellesley, Weston, Wayland, Chestnut Hill, or Brookline area. What is the best way to hook up with others who play at my level? Susan

Susan, Monica Darling is at her father's course in Northboro(Juniper Hill) and is a Professional Golf Association(PGA) certified teacher. She is very good as a teacher and they maintain a practice area there for those who take or have taken lessons. It's a great game. My wife is back at it after a 15 year lay-off and my one daughter has played for over 20 years. It has turned out to be a great investment in family fun/harmony. Enjoy. Tom | |||||
575.2 | DAVE HEUSER AT WAYLAND | FAVAX::COVIELLO | Wed Apr 12 1989 13:16 | 12 | |
HI: DAVE HEUSER at the Wayland Country Club offers two series of instruction. The one that I am in is a mini-series that consists of three, one-hour class lessons on the fundamentals. It cost $25. total. He also offers continuing series throughout the summer. I think they consist of six or eight hours of class lessons. He arranges these lessons through the Recreation Departments of local towns. Wellesley and Natick are two of them, you could probably reach him at Wayland to find out his remaining schedule. Good Luck. Joe C. | |||||
575.3 | I recommend Leo J. Martin | CSDPIE::GRYGLIK | When's our tee time? | Thu Apr 13 1989 13:38 | 12 |
Susan, Another good place to check out is Martin Memorial (or Leo J. Martin), the MDC public course at the junction of RT 128, the Mass Pike, and RT 30, in Weston. Every year they offer lesson specials for beginners and experienced golfers that is below the going rate. The pros there are PGA pros and if it matters to you, a ladies' pro (her first name is Sue, I can't recall her surname) was added to the staff. There is also a driving range there for practice after your lesson which is very beneficial. Mike |
