In anticipation of this weekend’s Bishops Invitational Tournament, we’re excited to share the first three videos in a new ongoing series of course tips and tricks featuring Golf Instructor Barrett Kelpin.
In each video, Barrett tackles common challenges from real spots on the course—places our members frequently find themselves during a round on holes Two, Four, and Fifteen. He walks you through practical strategies for how to approach each situation with confidence and precision.
Scroll down to watch the videos, and if you’re interested in working with Barrett to improve your game, feel free to contact him directly at: 269-447-9101 or barrettkelpin@gmail.com.
