CAREER SERVICESCONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGEfair and challenging hole locations candecrease significantly. We all try to avoidsetting up unfair hole locations, butwhenever you try to challenge the best ofthe best, what first appears fair can sometimesbecome unfair. So, the best advice Ican offer is to try to be tough. Yet, when indoubt, always try to lean on the conservativeside in setting hole locations.The most enjoyable aspect of settingup any golf course is to try to create thinkingopportunities for the game’s top players.This same philosophy can be used atevery PGA members’ facility. Study yourgolf course, and take a look at the landingareas to see if they offer players the optionof hitting a driver. Many courses dictatewhat club players must hit off the tee, dueto, say, an extremely narrow or necked-infairway. So, take a look and see how thishole might play if that area was widened.If a player is allowed the freedom orchoice to hit a driver, he is more likelyto hit the ball into places that are not sopleasing, but still allows him to potentiallymake more birdies or pars. This is theessence of how we attempt to set up ourPGA Championship golf courses.While we do not want to be a factorin the design of the course, we strive tobring out all the challenges that it mightoffer. This may mean, for example, wideningor adjusting a fairway to make sure thefairway bunker(s) are more in play, especiallyso that offline shots will more likelyland in the bunker -- or at least the bunkerwill play more into the mind of the golfer.Setting up a golf course for a PGAChampionship or your own club’s medalplay should be a fun and challenging job.I constantly look for ways to improve theplayability and challenge of our Championshipcourses, even if it means sometimesthinking outside the box for ideasthat even the host club did not previouslycontemplate.I always try to remember that theChampionship is for the players participatingin it, and the focus should not beon the people who set up the course. Theyshould be in the background -- hopefullylistening to how the players enjoyed thechallenge of the course -- as it was designedto be.TO-DO LISTSKEEP THEM SHORT AND MAKE THEM GREATBY MIKE LAWSONAre you a “to do” list maker? I am, almoston a daily basis. Most list makersfind that it helps to keep themfocused on what needs to be accomplished.Some experience a lot of satisfaction fromscratching through those completed tasks!Most of us have a lot of things that wewant to accomplish inboth our work careers andpersonal lives and thereis not nearly enough timeto do them all. That’s whywe make lists, to separatethose regular things we’dlike to do, and eventuallywill, from those things thatwould be good to complete,or must be completed, todayor in the very near future.As a result we get alot of “good” things accomplished.But here’s a suggestionthat I want to sharewith you. I came across thisstatement a while back: “Ifyou want to do the great,you must first choose not todo the good.” Our time is finite.To do the great thingswe must make the time. Wedo that by deciding not todo some worthwhile, fun orgood projects so that we canconcentrate on the greatermission. Successful peoplemake decisions about whatthey are not going to do, aswell as what they are goingto do, and then get on withit.So the next time you sitdown to make your “to do”list keep it short and highlightthe great things. Linethrough those good thingsso you don’t become distracted,and you will be ableto focus on achieving yourgreatest goals.PGAPROFESSIONALSAs always, call me if I can be of help toyou.

GOLF & BUSINESSLOYALTY IN COURSE MANAGEMENTHOW INDUSTRY HILLS HAS TRANSFORMED ITSELF INTO A WORLD-CLASS FACILITY THROUGH TWO DECADES OF STEADY LEADERSHIPBY ART GUEVARA, PGA | HEAD PROFESSIONAL, INDUSTRY HILLS GOLF CLUBCONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGEsuccessful teaching career is being able tomarket yourself to golfers, to build your clienteleand your reputation. Hardy says thatword of mouth is the greatest marketing aPro can do for himself or herself.“The number one way you get bettermarketing is to get better results fromyour students. Golfers are scared to deathof [Teaching Professionals] because they’rescared of not improving or even gettingworse. When word starts circulating thatthere is this Pro down at this course andhe’s got a whole bunch of people that havegotten better, that’s like winning the lottery.”In addition to word of mouth, PGAProfessionals benefit greatly from workingwith players of the highest skill levels.When a student suddenly wins the ClubChampionship or receives a scholarship toa top University, the Teaching Pro’s reputationrises.“There’s a whole crop of young teachersout there that are good, and are goingwww.scpga.comWhen I think back on what a facilitylike Industry Hills Golf Clubhas meant to me both personallyand professionally, I realize that I am trulyblessed to be a part of a reformation that hasbeen years in the making and will now soonbe realized.Our Director of Golf, David Youpa, andI have a front-row seat to watch the evolutionof a public resort, daily-fee golf coursetransform into a five-star rated golf and hotelfacility. Our hotel is now independentand we just finished a $45 million face lift.The two famous golf courses went througha similar renovation, costing a combined $15million. The changes in this facility are trulyremarkable, and David and I feel honoredthat our owners had enough confidence in usto get better. I want to encourage them tokeep teaching good players and show interestin them. Go to the tournaments theyplay in, show your students you’re interestedin them when you’re not on the clock.It shows other people you have a commitmentto your students.”“If you want to become known as agreat teacher, you have to see yourself as ateacher. This is my life’s work, which meansit’s more than just making a buck.”Jim Hardy was honored in 2007 forhis dedication and service over the last 40years to the PGA and to thousands of playersaround the country. It was truly a humblingexperience for him to be named thePGA National Teacher of the Year.“It’s a wonderful honor. To be recognizedby your peers is probably the highestdegree of recognition you can have. Itmeans a lot because of the award winnerswho have gone before me, who have allbeen very worthy people. An award likethis is given over an entire lifetime of work,and in that regard, this award is very meaningful.”SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA PGA PROGRAMto keep us employed and a part of the incrediblechanges in our facility.In thinking about our 17 years of workingtogether at one facility, I can reflect thatit took perseverance and pride in what youdo in order for us to be here so long.I say perseverance because dealing withthe public on a daily basis can honestly bevery tiring. The demands of public play opposedto member play can certainly be verydifferent.The public is very unreliable in termsof loyalty to the facility. During the periodof construction we did not receive the supportof public play and, understandably, wesuffered economically. Our member playtapered off as our construction went fullsteam.The pride in what we were doing wasthe main reason we have stayed ahead of thecurve. I had many conversations with Daveand the one thing that we needed to pass onto our assistants was that the pride they havefor their work will be realized as a whole andthis will make the difference.This pride I talk about covers customerservice, member relations, playing the gameof golf and, finally, promoting the game.What, may I ask, is the definition of thephrase “promoting the game of golf ”? Thisis my first question to all prospective newhires at Industry Hills. Obviously, some getit and some need time to understand it. Thisall cycles back to the pride in your work.Having pride in what you do will carrythe golf professional to the heights that awaitthem. It certainly has been great to me and Ihave the proof to show for it.09

Over 100 PGA Professionals attendedthis day-long seminar, learning from suchinnovative club designers as Bob Vokey andScotty Cameron.The objective of the day was to showhow golf instructors can best use equipment,club fitting, and fitness evaluations to enhancetheir teaching resources and improveresults with their students.Four sessions throughout the day focusedon different areas of the game, fromclub fitting and wedge design to putting andplayer fitness. Professionals had a chance toask questions, try out the latest club designs,and check out the most up-to-date technologyused in the golf industry today.Dave Phillips and Lance Gill hosted theseminar on golf fitness. This important, yetoften overlooked, aspect of the sport plays acritical role in determining a golfer’s abilityto produce the proper movement during agolf swing. An extensive physical screeningcan also help to bring any physical limitationsto the surface, and helps professionalsidentify and correct certain problems.The Titleist Performance Institute website(www.mytpi.com) offers specific, applicableinformation that golf professionals canuse to prescribe fitness programs to improvetheir students’ golf skills.Bob Vokey, a true golf legend who hasFor more information on The Drive,please contact Bill Crist, YamahaSouthern California District SalesManager at 760-798-0241.Or visit us atyamahagolfcar.com.PGA Professionals had a chance to try out the latest Bob Vokey-designed wedges on the private Titleist PerformanceInstitute putting and chipping area.10 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA PGA PROGRAM www.scpga.com

Attendees received training and information on thelatest in wedge design from the legendary Bob Vokey.been making wedges ever since openingBob’s Custom Golf Shop in San Diego in1976, discussed the history and technologybehind today’s wedge design. In addition toanswering questions from the PGA Professionalson hand, he talked about some of thetips that Professionals can use to help theirstudents improve the short game.First of all, as Bob said, “Bounce is yourfriend.” Most players will benefit fromwedges with more bounce.Second, not only has the design of theseclubs evolved, so has the use of them. Awedge is no longer considered just a rescueclub; it can now be used as a scoring club.Players should be outfitted with a full complementof wedges to fill in gaps and improvetheir short game skills.Also on hand was Scotty Cameron, creatorof one of the most famous line of putterson the market today. He went over someof the most important areas of putter designas well as what to look for when teaching astudent.Four degrees of loft at impact is optimalfor ensuring the best results from a putter.This allows the ball to release from itsresting position and get the best roll on thegreen. Scotty Cameron putters are milled toprecisely four degrees of loft, thus ensuringoptimal dynamic loft at impact with goodtechnique.www.scpga.comIn addition, a golfer’s eye position whenputting should be approximately one inchinside the ball position to help promote theproper putting path.Finally, the fourth seminar of the day focusedon club fitting, and was hosted by CliffWalzak, Greg Cesario and Glenn Mahler.They suggested having fitting clubchoices on hand to cover your anticipatedrange of player types, including a range ofhead styles, shaft flexes and weights. Usethese regularly as part of an overall instructionresource to enhance your students’ abilityto play their best.For iron fitting, Titleist recommendshaving choices that focus on both performanceand forgiveness, in shaft options thatinclude tour weight steel, lightweight steeland softer flex graphite.For driver fitting, Titleist recommendsoptions ranging from 8.5 to 11.5 degrees inloft and from 65 to 85 grams in weight. Activefitters should also consider lengths rangingfrom 44” to 45.5.”The Southern California PGA wouldlike to extend a big thank you to the staff ofthe Titleist Performance Institute for hostingthis great event.
