I was playing at Palmer a couple of months ago and the other golfer introduced the third player as his coach. I thought he was kidding but it turned out to be 'Steve', the pro from Hilltop Driving Range. Apparently they have lessons that includes rounds with the pro.

I swung by Hilltop, it's on Rolling Acress just south of 466 behind American Legion Hall, and it's a nice set up. They have a few mats for hitting drives but most of the teeing area is sodded, which is exactly what I'm looking for. They have some nice targets out on the range with a treed background. When I was there the pro giving lessons was down at one end and didn't interfere and I didn't pick up on any talking going on around the tees. I would call it a pretty decent driving range, they also have a putt-putt and some batting cages for softball hitting.
