Get Your Game in Shape for Spring At Dana Rader Golf School This winter is the ideal time to work on improving your golf game for the spring season. Instead of putting your clubs away, build a lesson program into your schedule now. That way you can make your golf swing and game ready when warmer days arrive. At the Dana Rader Golf School, we suggest the following ways to winterize your golf game: • Begin a specifi c golf fi tness program that sustains you through the holi- days when the average person gains 10 pounds. • Purchase a series of lessons (or ask for it as a holiday gift) and then dis- cuss your golf goals with one of our instructors. A lesson series not only saves you money but provides a specifi c golf plan for you. • Plan small but attainable goals for practice, remem- bering that short, more frequent practice sessions are more effective than long hours of practice and long intervals between practice. We suggest planning an hour each week to practice the short game and full swing, and then one day a week play at least nine holes. The Dana Rader Golf School has heated hitting bays and is open to the public for practice during the winter months. By following a specifi c, measurable winter golf training program, your golf game will be in great shape come spring. Call Julie Cole, director of instruc- tion and managing partner of the Dana Rader Golf School, today for your personal consul- tation at 704-542-7635.
