Davis Golf Course

With 25 years of teaching experience, I have had the opportunity to work with many types of golfers from ages 4 to 90 years old using a variety of teaching strategies. I have taught at Davis Golf Course, Cherry Island Golf Course, UC Davis, and also Sacramento City College. As well, I am one of just a handful of PGA professionals in California that have received their Certification in Instruction from the PGA. My job is to work with you in reaching your golfing goals, while making the process enjoyable and informative. I like to focus on one or two skills per lesson, and give you drills to practice at home. After the lesson, I encourage my students to seek me out to help them if they have questions or problems. I offer an assortment of lessons types including: group lessons, individual lessons, junior lessons and clinics, college golf courses through Sacramento City College, player development programs, and semi-private lessons.

Individual private lessons with Mark are available year-round. For adults the cost is $40 per lesson, or six lessons for $200. The cost of private lessons for juniors is $20 per lesson. These lessons may be scheduled through the Pro Shop at the mutual convenience of the student and Mark. It is requested that lessons be scheduled at least three days in advance.
