The Opportunity: Escape the 60-Hour Grind
Are you a country club assistant tired of folding shirts, washing golf carts, and working 70-hour summer weeks for low pay? Or a former competitive collegiate player looking to build an elite instruction business inside a state-of-the-art facility?
We are offering a stable, highly competitive year-round base salary for just 30 scheduled operational hours a week. Outside of those hours, you have full access to our flagship technology to teach your private clients, retaining a significant portion of lesson revenue.

- Provide expert assistance on data tracking, video swing analysis, and virtual course strategy inside the simulator bays.

- Tech-Savy: Deep comfort with or eager willingness to master modern launch monitor metrics (ball speed, launch angle, spin axis, club path).
