Schedule Lessons For Warren Bailey
After a short stint away from golf, Warren returned to the golf industry by working at Brookview, in Golden Valley. In addition to private lessons, he again handled all the junior and group lessons.
Winters were spent working at golf courses in Florida and Texas, a two year stint at Redwood Falls Golf Club and then another two years managing the Golf Galaxy store in Roseville. In addition to his teaching at Island Lake, Warren also went to work at 2nd Swing Golf and became a certified Club Fitter.
Warren’s teaching method revolves around each individual golfer. Every golfer’s swing is different, so the goal is to create a golf swing that works with the physical ability of the golfer and provide processes to build a more reliable swing.
He emphasizes fun and plenty of humor. While you might need about 30 seconds per shot of serious concentration, the rest of the time you should be enjoying being outside and playing a fantastic sport. Click the link below to schedule an appointment with Warren Bailey.
