Texas State University Head Men's Golf Coach, Shane Howell, invites junior golfers to the Bandit Golf Club this summer for an experience that promises to be rewarding for any young player looking to improve.

 

Coach Howell and his staff provide three hours of morning instruction at the practice facility, where they cover everything from pitching and putting, to bunker play and the full-swing.  Campers are grouped according to their age and ability, and instruction is specifically tailored to meet the needs of each group. 

 

Following lunch (included in camp price), campers head out on the course for 9 holes.   The staff accompanies the campers and provides instruction under real playing conditions.  It's here where the campers can put their newly acquired skills to use.  This combination of range and on-course instruction ensures that each young golfer will get better regardless of his or her starting point.
