| July 08, 2008 | | The Vail Golf Club will host an all-day seminar Friday, July 18 to provide participants with preparation techniques to apply skills perfected on the range to the course. | This $250 seminar will provide individual assessments of player's physical strengths and weaknesses, strategies to improve their mental game and plans for the most efficient practices possible. (Limited to 18 participants) The seminar will take place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and will be lead by Vail Golf Club Head Professional Jeanne Sutherland who has taught Champions Tour players, Ladies Professional Golf Association members, National College Athletic Association All Americans and Junior All Americans. Instructors joining Sutherland include, Jennifer Orr, a Titleist certified golf fitness instructor and licensed physical therapist and John Elliot, Ph.D., who currently works with elite performers in the business world, professional baseball and basketball players and the Professional Golf Association (PGA) Tour. According to Sutherland, this is this summer's only all-day seminar the golf club will offer and it will provide players with more in-depth, one-on-one instruction than a typical golf lesson.
The Vail Golf Club, which is operated by the VRD, is nestled at the base of the Gore Mountain Range and presents golfers with a unique 18-hole, par 71 course at 8,200 feet elevation. The golf club is open to the public and offers a full service golf shop, group and corporate outings, professional instruction, launch monitor, driving range, practice area, club storage, golf swing analysis, club rentals, demo days and an on-site restaurant, Happy Valley Grill.
