Pro Tip Tuesday is a social media initiative that showcases your skills as a Golf Professional to help bring exposure to you and your facility. The Association wants to give golfers a reason to check out the PGA of Alberta Instagram account, including your own! We will start posting Pro Tip Tuesday submissions in January.

How do you become a part of Pro Tip Tuesday? 
All you need to do is create a quick tip video between 30 seconds to 2 minutes and submit using the Dropbox link below. One video will be posted per week during the off-season beginning in January.

In addition to golf instruction tips, we are allowing other categories of submissions for Pro Tip Tuesday including the following:

• Fashion tips - Types of apparel to wear on certain days, clothing accessories, latest fashion trends, etc.
• Technology tips - Different technologies to utilize to improve game, technology features most golfers are unaware of, new technology in the golf industry, etc. 
• Rules of Golf tips - New rules in the game, common rules the average player is unaware of, proper rule procedures, etc.
• Etiquette tips - Things the average player should be doing on the golf course, how to best fix a divot/ball mark, pace of play etiquette, etc.
