BRIAN PETOLETTI, PGA Associate
Head Golf Professional | Lake Spanaway Golf Course

The best part of my job is being able to help those who share the same passion for the game of golf!  Whether your passion for golf is just emerging or it’s been a part of your life for a while, I welcome the opportunity to help you improve your playing and enjoyment of the game.

Instruction can be a bit overwhelming at first…there is a lot of communication and sharing of key fundamentals to help each student build a simple and consistent swing.  To help with that, I have found sending follow-up emails after every session is invaluable.  Lesson follow-up emails include a summary of “Key Points” taught during that lesson, video swing analysis (if taken) and drills to help you re-enforce “new” learnings.


Each of us have our own swing, what I have found to be most important is:
 
  • Is the clubface angle square at impact?
  • Is the club’s path coming into the ball, down the line when striking the ball?
  • Is your swing simple and repeatable?
