My goal is to provide the highest quality instruction where each student is taught based on his or her learning style, physical attributes, and personal objectives.
Welcome to my website. My name is Gary Lipelt, I have been playing golf for more than 30 years and teaching golf for over 17 years. I turned professional in 1993 and have been a Class A member of the PGA of America since 1998.
As a PGA Professional I strive to help golfers of all ages and abilities from beginners to aspiring tour players achieve their goals. With years of playing and teaching experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge about the golf swing and the game of golf to each lesson I teach.
I have been fortunate to work with some great students of all skill levels. Some of my past and current students have gone on to receive college scholarships, become PGA Professionals themselves and even play on the PGA Tour.
I get a great sense of satisfaction helping my students reach their goals, whether that goal is to lower their score or handicap, to play professionally, or just learning the game.
As one of my students, you don’t just receive a golf lesson you receive a personalized instruction plan that takes your current playing level, personal objectives, physical attributes, and learning style into consideration.
Take a look around the site and feel free to contact me if you have any questions or special requirements.

Overall your swing looks pretty good. There are just a couple of things to work on to elminate some of the miss hits you are describing.
First take a look at these two images, you and an un-named PGA Tour player. Notice the difference in arm position. You looked like you’re forcing your arms too close [...]
Set up looks pretty good, maybe take a look at weight distribution, looks like knees are a bit to far out towards toes, try getting your knees directly over the balls of your feet which will bump your ass out a little past your heels.
Backswing looks better. The club is on plane much farther going back. BUT you [...]
