T
he Cobra Driving School at Monarch
Beach Golf Links offers three unique in-
struction opportunities for junior
golfers over the summer. Here's a look at the
three programs and some of the highlights:
DRIvE, CHIP & PuTT CAMPS
If you watched this year's Masters,
then you probably saw some of the
young, cheery faces of kids from
around the country who competed
in the Drive, Chip and Putt National
Finals at Augusta National.
There are local qualifiers scheduled
throughout Southern California for next
year's championship, but the camps at
Monarch Beach are the only known schools
that focus exclusively on improving those
skills, and include simulated competitions.
"Each time juniors go through a session
they can see their numbers improve," Director
of Instruction Seth Glasco said. "It gives them
a chance to see where they stand."
The camps are $400 for juniors ages 7-17,
and also include video analysis, equipment
assessment, mental toughness training, cus-
tom training aids, a Puma shirt and hat, and a
one-hour private follow-up lesson.
RICKIE FOwlER DRIvIng SCHOOl
These five-day camps run two hours per
day, and focus strictly on hitting the driver —
but there's a Rickie Fowler touch.
As part of the school, participants ages 12-
17 receive an orange custom-built Cobra Bio
Cell driver with an orange grip and
headcover to go with their orange
shirt and hat.
Entry is $699 per student.
TEE-gOlF CAMP
This is a fun camp that serves as an
introduction to the game. Kids ages 5-8 use
SNAG equipment (Starting New At Golf),
which includes oversized plastic clubs with
large club heads and tennis ball-sized golf
balls.
Kids participate in games and activities that
— with the help of PGA professionals — help
them learn the basics.
"We want to get the kids to fall in love with
golf," Glasco said. "Just get them swinging at
a golf ball and watching it fly."
The camps run two-and-a-half hours a day
Monday-Friday, and there are morning and
afternoon sessions available in July and Au-
gust. Each camp is $285 per child.
HEy, KIDS!
