Princeville's 18-hole Prince course and 27-hole Makai course will offer free golf lessons in May as part of the PGA's Free Lesson Month. Resort pros will provide personalized 10-minute lessons any day, with reservations.
Lessons will be tailored to the golfer's level of experience. Beginners will receive a brief introduction to golf, casual players might get a few tips to improve their swing, and avid golfers can fine-tune a specific area.
PGA Free Lesson Month is part of PGA's Play Golf America program. Participants can win prizes from the PGA, including a two-day golf getaway at the PGA Golf Club in Port St. Lucie, Fla., and a custom set of Nike golf clubs. To enter the giveaway, go to PlayGolfAmerica.com, download the Free Lesson Month Card, and bring it to the golf lesson for the pro's signature.
