PUERTO VALLARTA, MEXICO
 
The practice range is much more than a place to warm up at the TaylorMade Invitational. We are extremely fortunate, to say the least, to have not one, but three of the nation's top teaching professionals in Puerto Vallarta for the week. Don't miss a chance to catch up with them on the range, and by all means don't be shy. These top professionals enjoy working with pros and amateurs alike.
