Start Smart Golf

This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.


Start Smart Golf is a developmentally appropriate introductory golf program for children 5-7 years old. The program teaches children proper golf skills in a fun, non-competitive environment.

Start Smart Golf prepares children and their parents for on-course play without the threat of competition. Age appropriate equipment from SNAG® is used in teaching putting, chipping, pitching and the full swing.


With Start Smart, every player must have a helper at each meeting to work with. Helpers can be a parent partner or sibling over the age of 13.
