Golf Lessons at Emerald Greens GC by Barry Wallin PGA

Greetings golfers!

Winter has finally relented and spring is here. YES!! The golf course is in great shape, and I am opening the lesson books for both group and individual lessons. While it is going to be a busy time getting caught up, I am really looking forward to helping each one of you to play this great game better and enjoy it more!

Registrations for the summer camps are filling fast. This summer promises to be another awesome time of helping kids learn to love the game of golf!

I do have some good news to share. I received word recently that I am going to be inducted into the Minnesota State High School Golf Coaches Hall of Fame this coming June. I owe an incredible debt to the Furlong family, owners of Emerald Greens, who have provided such amazing facilities, resources, and support for our junior program these past 15 years. It has directly led to the success of my team, the Rosemount Girls golf team, whose home course is Emerald Greens.

Here are the links to the lessons pages:

Thanks again, and hope to see you soon!
