SMART Golf & Fitness Instruction

The ultimate comeback story. Today, we are incredibly proud to spotlight Ray, whose dedication to his post-surgery recovery is an inspiration to our entire community!

Coming back from a hip replacement surgery can feel daunting for any athlete, especially when your sport relies so heavily on rotation, hip stability, and shifting weight. What started as a careful, intentional return to movement with our team has evolved into a massive physical transformation.

Since returning to training, Ray has made incredible strides in both his mobility and overall strength, translating directly to massive wins on the golf course.

Ray’s progress is the perfect testament to what happens when you trust the process, commit to the program, and put in the work to build a durable, athletic body. Hip surgery didn't bench his game, it just set the stage for a stronger comeback.

Ray, we are so proud to have you as a member and can't wait to see you crush it on the course all season long! 🙌

Lock in your short game! 🎯⛳️ Our focus all month long has been on mastering your short game, because roughly 40% of your shots on the course happen on the green. If your putter isn't perfectly calibrated to your unique stroke mechanics, you are giving away strokes on every single hole.

That’s why this month, we are giving away a FREE Custom Putter Fitting (club not included) to one lucky winner!

Most golfers grab a putter off the rack based on "feel" or brand name. But a true Tour-level putter fitting utilizes the advanced data and high-speed tracking technology of our Putt Deck to measure the microscopic margins that matter most. Stop guessing on the greens. Let data build your confidence from the inside out.

How to Enter:

1,000+ square feet of pure short game precision. ⛳️ When we say we don’t do band-aid fixes, we mean it. You can't master your scoring zone on a basic, static putting strip.

That’s why every single SMART Clubhouse location features a massive, 1,000+ square foot dedicated chipping and putting green complete with state-of-the-art PuttView technology.

PuttView turns the green into an interactive learning environment by projecting the exact break, line, and speed of your putt directly onto the turf. It completely eliminates the guessing game, giving you instant, visual feedback on how a ball reacts to different slopes.

Stop wasting strokes inside 100 yards. Whether you’re training in Lincoln Park, Lombard, or Northbrook, our short game areas are engineered to build real, data-driven confidence where it matters most.

When you pair dedicated effort with data-driven coaching, the results speak for themselves. We are proud to spotlight Jon, who has been training at our Lincoln Park facility under the guidance of golf coach Case and fitness coach Chris since early 2025!

When Jon started his journey, he had a clear mission: increase clubhead speed and eliminate the physical restrictions that were holding his swing back.

By utilizing our TPI-aligned physical screens, Chris built a scientific, data-driven training program to optimize Jon's biomechanics. Over the last 12 months, the headline metrics have been absolutely staggering:
💥 Clubhead Speed: Increased from 107mph to a blazing 114mph!
🔄 Thoracic Rotation: Increased by an incredible ~100%!
🏌️‍♂️Internal Hip Rotation: Improved by 70%!
🙌 External Hip Rotation: Increased by ~60%!
🦾 External Shoulder Rotation: Gained ~30% more mobility!

Jon’s massive gains in power and speed are the direct result of unlocking true mobility and stability in the gym. By freeing up his hips, thoracic spine, and shoulders, he can now move efficiently, safely, and powerfully on every single swing.

Jon, your dedication to the program and trust in the process is inspiring to our entire community. We can't wait to see you translate this elite athletic development into lower scores all season long!
