The Golf Lab
Starting in January 2013, our sessions are with Eric Jones at the back of the Pleasanton driving range, at The Bridges Golf Club in San Ramon, or at Mariner’s Point (maps are below). Our San Carlos location closed on December 31, 2012.
Our phone number remains the same: 650-654-1770.
You can send email to Leith Anderson at leithander@gmail.com or reach him by cell phone at 650-743-2816.
You can send email to John Ruark at jwruark@yahoo.com or reach him by cell phone at 415-497-7627.
You can send email to Bob Pegram at bobpgolf@dslextreme.com or reach him at 408-871-9983.
Leith is continuing with current services including checking your club specifications and determine which specs fit your swing as well as doing “bag gapping” so you know your distances with each club, playing 9 holes with you to see your strong and weak spots, working on ball trajectory, backspin, etc. Leith and John provide outdoor Edel wedge fitting at either the practice area at Mariner’s Point in Foster City or the back of the driving range at Pleasanton (see directions below). Edel wedges are the most advanced wedges available. Both Leith and John provide Edel putter fitting.
John Ruark also works with you to increase your putting skill and also works with the Focus Band so you can learn to stay “in the zone.”
Eric Jones, two time long drive champion and PGA Pro, has a thorough performance-based approach to improvement that is described here: http://calgolflab.com/blog/2013/04/12/edel-wedge-fitting-and-free-coaching-program-intro/
and the current schedule is here: http://calgolflab.com/blog/2013/04/12/schedule-for-eric-jones-performance-based-golf-most-important-shots-clinics-on-saturdays/
If you are meeting Eric, Leith and John at Pleasanton, the location and directions are as follows: exit I-680 at Bernal in Pleasanton. Go east (away from the bay), turn left/north on Valley Ave., turn right/east at Gate 12 and go to the back of the range on the left (where the asterisk is).
If you are meeting us at The Bridges, go east (away from the bay) from I-680 on Bollinger Canyon Road. That is two or three miles north of I-580 and a number of miles south from Highway 24. Turn right on South Gale Ridge Road and right again into the parking lot for The Bridges.
If you are meeting Leith or John at Mariner’s Point, directions are: drive to 3rd Avenue exit on I-101 (just north of the San Mateo bridge), go east toward the bay approximately a mile. Mariner’s Point Golf is on the left.
