Get Golf Ready 2

Get Golf Ready 2 is an adult intermediate group class that is geared towards golfers that have taken “GGR 1” and/or would like to take the next step in their golf game. Get Golf Ready 2 will focus more on the getting the club face square at impact, the path the club takes during the swing, how the body works to produce power and different shot shapes. Video analysis will be used to help illustrate these points.

This is a 4-session class with time spent on the driving range and short game area. The classes are limited to 6 students with two instructors for full classes. A minimum of 4 students are needed for the class to take place. Payment is required at the time of signup. You may cancel up to 48 hours before the class begins for full refund. To sign up, please call David Putney, PGA Head Golf Professional at 916-817-8104.

Head Golf Professional

David grew up in the Pacific Northwest playing golf starting at a young age. He was able to play golf on a college scholarship in the Pac12, and eventually try his hand on the mini-tours in Florida and California. Once the mini-tour days were behind him, David began the process to become a Class A PGA professional and gained membership in 2004. Along the way, David has learned to play and give lessons from some of the best instructors in the Pacific Northwest. Since turning 50 in April of 2023, he won the Northern California PGA Senior Match Play Championship.  David also qualified for the 2023 National Senior Club Professional Championship held in Florida and finished in the top half of the field.  

David focuses on the fundamentals of a golf swing, and understands that each person swings the club uniquely, and incorporates swing principles to help each student improve their game.

The quickest way to lower scores is to develop the fundamentals working from the hole backwards. About 50% of a golfer’s scores will come from putting and chipping within 10 yards of the green. Come see me for a quick 30-minute short game lesson.
