Black Diamond Announces Partnership With John Jacobs Golf Schools And Academies

Using cutting-edge video analysis software, the schools will provide members of this Florida community with in-depth swing analysis.

Black Diamond, Lecanto, Fla., announced its new partnership with the John Jacobs Golf Schools and Academies.

John Jacobs Golf Schools (two- and three-day) cover every facet of the game from full-swing video analysis, to short-game technique, to trouble shots and uneven lies. The Academies teach through a variety of customized programs tailored to students’ needs.

Both the Schools and Academies are open to members and golfers from surrounding areas in search of premier game-improvement curriculum.

“Black Diamond is one of the most sought after golf experiences in the world,” says Doug Egly, General Manager. “Our partnership with John Jacobs Golf Schools and Academies provides members with instruction commensurate with our facilities.”

Founded in 1976 by John Jacobs and Shelby Futch, the programs have graduated more than 500,000 students at 100 locations across the world.

Using cutting-edge V1 Pro video analysis software, John Jacobs Golf Schools and Academies provide in-depth swing analysis. The software’s companion, the V1 Golf App, allows lessons to be recorded directly on students’ smartphones where they can take advantage of slow-motion playback, side-by-side swing comparisons with tour pros, a full suite of drawing tools, view video drills and tips, and more.

“We are looking forward to working with the membership and guests of Black Diamond to create a one-of-a-kind learning environment in which their games will thrive,” says Cliff Lawson, vice president and director of instruction for the John Jacobs Golf Schools and Academies.
