Welcome to the September edition of The Scoop, your source for information about what’s happening in the GOLFTEC community. Inside, we highlight some amazing Members including Ryan Ploetz, who recently shot his first round of even par! Ryan has been improving while taking lessons with Ian Hughes at GOLFTEC Grand Rapids in Michigan.  We also want to congratulate the father-son duo of Chris and Mark Ellertson, who took home the trophy as Member-Guest Champions at Chris’ club. This included a round of 61 in the scramble format. Great playing!

Top 100 Teacher Nick Clearwater joins us to talk about what to look for when using your launch monitor at home, and how to be effective when you practice and play in the virtual world.

GOLFTEC has had the privilege of working with two incredible ladies who played for Team USA at this year’s Solheim Cup! Rose Zhang had one of the best amateur golf careers ever before turning professional this year, and Allisen Corpuz is a major champion after winning the U.S. Women’s Open this year at Pebble Beach.

Nick also dives into the The GOLFTEC App showcasing one of the premiere features – on-course GPS. He takes a look at one of the holes at Marco SImone, site of this year’s Ryder Cup and demonstrates how players might play that hole this week. This is a great tool for everyone to use as it can help you with course management and save you shots during your round. Download the app today!
