(Part I explores the Bird Golf Academy golf schools in Arizona and California.)
DESTINATION: ARIZONA
One of Bird Golf’s three golf schools in Arizona is surely calling your name.
In Phoenix at https://www.birdgolf.com/locations/arizona-golf-schools/ , Bird Golf Academy could not be more proud that it is the official golf school at the fantastic Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass. In addition to the stunning accommodations at the Wild Horse Pass Resort (including the acclaimed Kai Restaurant and Aji Spa and Salon), Bird Golf Academy students get to enjoy the incredible Whirlwind Golf Club, which was selected as one of the Top 25 New Golf Courses in the United States in 2004 and was home to the PGA Nationwide Tour Gila River Classic.
Consistent with its Phoenix counterpart, Bird Golf’s Tucson golf school, https://www.birdgolf.com/c-locations/tucson-golf-school/ is similarly exceptional. Housed at the Hilton Tucson El Conquistador Golf & Tennis Resort, this golf school allows you to enjoy the Elements Spa, hiking and biking trails in the Oro Valley, and the amazing Epazote Kitchen & Cocktails restaurant. And the golf courses are, if possible, even more impressive: two superb Championship courses are The Conquistador and The Cañada. Here, you will be able to enjoy private practice facilities, amazing golf courses in a mountainous atmosphere, and the exceptional instruction from some of the best golf instructors in the country.
The final stop on the Arizona tour is Sedona at https://www.birdgolf.com/c-locations/sedona-arizona-golf-school/, held by some to be the most beautiful city in the United States!

DESTINATION: CALIFORNIA
Wine tasting in Napa Valley on you or your significant other’s bucket list? Look no further than Bird Golf Academy’s Napa Golf School at Hiddenbrooke https://www.birdgolf.com/c-locations/napa-golf-school-at-silverado-resort/ .

Looking for the ever-fantastic weather of southern California? Bird Golf has three exceptional golf schools to choose from for the perfect golf school vacation, including Palm Springs, San Diego, and Santa Barbara.
The Classic Club in Palm Springs https://www.birdgolf.com/c-locations/palm-springs-california-golf-school/ is surely calling your name.

Your stay in San Diego will be equally fantastic.

Our final stop in California is the Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort in Santa Barbara wine country https://www.birdgolf.com/c-locations/santa-barbara-at-alisal-ranch-river-course/ . The resort encompasses an amazing 10,000 acres!
