Little Linksters Youth Summer Golf Camps

The City of Santa Fe’s week-long summer golf camps welcome children, ages 6 to 12, an opportunity to learn the game of golf by learning from certified teaching professionals. Instructors teach the basic techniques of golf including golf course rules and etiquette, fundamentals, instruction on putting, chipping and full swing, how to read a putting green, and on course practice and play. No previous golf instruction is required prior to enrolling. All groups with 5:1 student-teacher ratio; golfers receive individual attention. Space is limited to 20-25 students per camp to allow for hands-on instruction.

What’s the perk of enrolling?

Children registered in the calendar year’s Little Linksters Youth Summer Golf Camps may visit the golf course post instruction — FOR FREE AND UP TO 5 TIMES IN ONE CALENDAR YEAR — with a paying adult. This perk is in large thanks to the annual FORE KIDS golf tournament fundraiser that donates all proceeds to youth scholarships. (RULES APPLY — call the pro shop at (505) 955-4402 for more information).

Kirk Mackie

From private swing lessons to coaching, playing lessons, junior clinics and group lessons, I have been teaching golf in Santa Fe for 15 years. My focus is making a difficult game feel simple. Everyone learns differently so I use drills, mirroring, and explanations while you swing away on the driving range.  By building a repeatable swing we enable quality feedback and predictability.  Expect me to ask, “What are you thinking about?” Random thoughts lead to random results, and we won’t ignore anything on the road to improvement. See me at the course, come to the Saturday Morning Clinic or call for a lesson.
