Maximize your game
Echo Falls is proud to offer individual lessons, group instruction and clinics to help take your game to the next level. Lessons are provided by PGA professionals on staff with Echo Falls Golf Club. Be sure to inquire about corporate golf clinics, which are perfect for companies who wish to utilize golf as a vehicle to entertain customers or team build within their organization.
Teaching Philosophy
Our instructor believes instruction should be based on accomplishing students’ goals. Students and the instructor should work together to determine what the students’ goals should be, develop an agreed upon plan, and follow that plan.
Swing Philosophy
To effectively make solid contact consistently, the golfer must be in balance throughout the entire swing. The golf swing is different for each person and instructions should be given taking a golfer’s physical characteristics into consideration.

Brian Flugstad
Teaching Professional, Brian Flugstad brings over 40 years of experience in the game of golf from his first set of clubs when he was 6 years old to high school golf, amateur golf, collegiate golf, professional golf and now as a teaching professional. All these experiences have helped shape his philosophy, “There is no universal way to swing a golf club and it is better to build golfers and just golf swings!”

He enjoys teaching all facets of the game from full swing, short game and course strategies.
