The residents of the Bonita Bay Group community, TwinEagles, have a variety of interests and hobbies; however, it comes as no surprise that one of the most popular leisure activities is golfing. Since TwinEagles offers such a beautiful golf experience, many residents take advantage of being so close to the greens.
For many resident golfers, improving their game is always a goal; this is why TwinEagles is home to the Dr. Jim Suttie Golf Academy. This incredible, state-of-the-art facility is located within the TwinEagles community and teaches golfers, from novice to expert, the fundamentals for achieving a better game. The golf academy utilizes advanced digital computer and video swing analysis and balance machines that determine weight distribution during the swing. As if the academy wasn’t already technologically advanced, multiple cameras are used to record the various swing angles from the building onto the driving range, as well as floor-mounted monitors with split-screens that allow Dr. Suttie to match body type and swing style similar to a professional golfer.
General Manager of The Club at TwinEagles, Jay Severson, says, "We are so fortunate to have Dr. Suttie on our team. His forte is teaching, and this building was designed specifically to meet the needs of his academy. This program rounds out our instructional program at TwinEagles and gives us one of the best instructors in the world."
