I too found Deanna to be friendly and courteous, and yes, she is Patrick's wife. She always had a friendly smile, remembered my name, and gave me extra golf balls for the price of a small bucket. And she was an incredibly hard worker. If she wasn't answering the phone, doing things on the computer, she was out picking up range balls, or you name it. I imagine if you weren't playing by their rules, and got spoken to for it, it might color your perceptions about the staff there, but my spouse and I found her to be terrific. As far as spouse coaching, mine would assist with my swing, but we'd do it at the end of the range, where they had a section marked off for that type of thing, where no one was around and we wouldn't bother anyone. I hope the new owners/managers continue with that practice.
