Is there a place to obtain email addresses for TV golf pro's??

I find "Meet the Pro's"...........but no email contact information.

I struck out as well. Maybe a call to the course in question could provide an email address.

I've searched multiple times, without any luck.

Even tried a few guesses, based on the typical employee email address in TV ... all have been returned at "undeliverable".

On a positive note, I can usually get the resident professional on the phone, when I've tried.

For whatever it's worth in my experience, Mark Verkey at Palmer is head and shoulders above any of the PGA Professionals in TV. He's always available and always responsive.

Brady Godfrey at Mallory Hills, seems similar to Mark.

I've talked (or tried) to talk with most of the other PGA Pros on campus ... the experiences weren't productive. Maybe I caught them on a bad day or they were under the pall induced by El Nino.

Years ago..............I emailed the Havana Pro Shop with some feedback.
The Pro replied and thanked me for the info.

I was going to send a note to Chase at Glenview, but unable to find the pro shop or his email.

They are well hidden.

I played Glenview with 2 Guests, yesterday. It was in the best condition of the year. Definitely #1 in TV in my opinion.

I've never been impressed with the staff/operation at Glenview.

Glenview's maintenance crew is gone south as of this week, so things may change up there.

I was there as well................maybe I was hitting into you.

I was going to let Chase know of an event yesterday.
I see him on Facebook, but that's a personal account.
Still searching for his work email address......without calling.

I've seen a few posters that are "in-the-know".....so I thought I would ask.

No. If you had, you wouldn't be in any position to be typing today.

There was no one there, yesterday. Played Talley - FR around noon. Played in 3:58 and never saw anyone, until we were on 16 (7) on FR.

It sounds as if you might be looking for lessons? The issue tends to be that unless you go to the academies, facilities are limited. Especially if you want video or a trackman.
As a 30 year and current PGA professional, which there are probably a hundred of us living in The Villages, try to find an instructor that makes their living by teaching, not running a golf course and also teaches. I worked a while at Sarasota Practice Facility and they do a good job. The teachers only teach, use video and trackman. Short game area and putting green. Don't limit yourself to the villages either. I volunteer at Continental as an ambassador to get range and playing privileges.
Steve runs all instruction there and has other instructors that teach. They are easy to get to, but not by golf cart. You would likely get lessons anytime you're available, not when the teachers are available. There are also many people saying they are professionals, teaching at some of the villages practice areas and pitch and putts. PGA Professionals will have ID cards but it is frowned upon by the PGA of America for us to teach at a facility without permission of the facility.
Hope this helps someone reading this.

Go to golf the villages.com, “contact us”. If you fill out the form it will be directed to the appropriate person, or during office hours call one of the numbers shown. A friend works in the golf admin office and told us this when we asked how to complain about a specific situation.

Exactly...was told to do this too when we were charged 3 points for not playing on a cart path only day. Got it changed by head man who email was directed to.

All of this is by design. They want you to go through the channels. If any of the golf pros had their emails published on the site, they’d become admins and never get out of the office.

Too late, that's all they are...........pro shop office managers.

Just curious if anyone knows if this is David William's job? It's not clear from the Org Chart, what this position is.

"Manager of Golf Operations
Village Center Community Development District - The Villages, FL"
