Brian Petoletti
HEAD GOLF PROFESSIONAL, PGA ASSOCIATE
The best part of my job is being able to help those who share the same passion for the game of golf! Whether your passion for golf is just emerging or it’s been a part of your life for a while, I welcome the opportunity to help you improve your playing and enjoyment of the game. Instruction can be a bit overwhelming at first; there is a lot of communication and sharing of key fundamentals to help each student build a simple and consistent swing. To help with that, I have found sending follow-up emails after every session is invaluable. Lesson follow-up emails include a summary of “Key Points” taught during that lesson, video swing analysis (if taken), and drills to help you reinforce “new” learnings.
Each of us has our own swing; what I have found to be most important is:
- Is the clubface angle square at impact?
- Is the club’s path coming into the ball down the line when striking the ball?
- Is your swing simple and repeatable?
Ian Rudd
ASSISTANT GOLF PROFESSIONAL
Growing up in Issaquah, Washington, Ian played golf for Bellevue Christian High School. After attending Washington State University as a Music Education major, Ian was redirected on his career path towards the Golf Industry. After spending five years with Dick’s Sporting Goods as a club fitter and service specialist, he spent one year with The Home Course in DuPont, WA, and quickly discovered how fulfilling and fun the golf industry can be to work in.
Once transitioning to Indian Summer, Ian spent one year working in the golf shop and one year with the ground’s crew and has now transitioned into the pro shop to be the Assistant Golf Professional. Ian loves what he gets to do every day, and teaching is his #1 passion in life.
“The feeling you get from seeing a student achieve a goal of theirs as a direct result of their time working with you is the most rewarding in the world, and I look forward to having the opportunity to improve your golf game.”
