Private Golf Instruction at Village Greens


We have a simple, proven way to improve your game whether you are a beginner, junior, medium or low-handicapper. Lessons of all kinds are fun and affordable...we believe that learning to play golf shouldn't break the bank.

Private Lessons are always the most effective way to improve. We provide a proven three-step formula:

  1. Identify the tendencies
  2. Determine the cause
  3. Prescribe the appropriate plan

Playing lessons are available for those who are excellent "range players", but can't seem to score well on the course. We feature semi-private lessons as an economical way to learn the game with a few of your friends, or a terrific way to bond with corporate clients in a relaxed, unique atmosphere. Have a friend you'd enjoy learning with? We will set you up in a group of two to six students which will focus on a particular area of the game, including some one-on-one, to tune you up on a personal basis. Did you know that discussing your progress and practicing with your friends after a group lesson is a great way to improve your game?

Village Green's Golf Professional Biographies


Brandon Evans - PGA Head Professional

Brandon has been the Head Golf Professional at Village Greens for the past 7 seasons. He is a graduate of the Professional Golf Management Program at Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Michigan where he earned the Dr. Gary Wiren Award for graduating at the top of his graduating class.

Brandon's objective is to maximize his student's playing abilities and enjoyment in the game of golf. Through an extensive knowledge of ball flight laws learned under some of the game's greatest instructors, Brandon can analyze and identify the positive attributes of one's swing as well as those factors which are preventing an individual from achieving their potential.

Once a diagnosis is made, a customized improvement plan is created based on a number of factors, including the students desire and availability to learn and practice and the ideal manner (visual, auditory, or kinesthetic) in which they assimilate the information given to them. He also believes that the fastest and most effective way to improve one's score is through a greater understanding and proficiency in the short game.

"In my experience, as well as others (a conclusion made after many discussions with those who also have had Brandon as an instructor) Brandon Evans demonstrates exceptional teaching and coaching insights. He assesses student's needs, targets problems, analyzes shortcomings and teaches skills necessary to master the game. Brandon's keen analysis helps students maximize their own unique physical capabilities, minimize liabilities,and helps them adjust accordingly. Brandon also helps students prepare mentally / psychologically so that more enjoyment can be had from their experiences on the golf course. Whether a beginner or seasoned player, Brandon helps students grasp the nuances of a better golf game as well as more enjoyment from the golf experience. He is a brilliant analyst, teacher and the best kept golf secret in the Chicago area."
Stephanie Parkinson - MWGC Club Championship Flight Champion


"I would like to commend Brandon Evans on his golf teaching skills. When I first went to Brandon for lessons I was new to the game but I was determined to hit the 80's by my second year. I'm here to testify that with the help and instructions from Brandon, I recently achieved my goal. I shot an 89 on August 14th and owe it all to Brandon. His teaching method and ideas were perfect for me. He gave me the tools and skills that I could work on even when I wasn't being watched by him. I trusted his judgment and it has paid off. Now all I have to do is continue down the path that Brandon has shown me and I'll soon be in the 70's. I do believe this."
Shawn Pipes - 20 Handicap (and falling)


"Thank you for making another season of Sunshine Golf great. You make so many wonderful opportunities for the participants possible. I enjoy watching your staff take ownership of the programs and make the experience fun for the participants and themselves. I appreciate everything you do very much."

Marc "Woody" Woodcock - PGA Teaching Professional


Marc “Woody” Woodcock is entering his 13th year as a PGA Class “A” Professional. After winning the Junior College State Tournament he accepted a Golf Scholarship to Northern Illinois University. He was a contributing member of the 1985 Mid American Conference Championship Team. Woody went on to play on the Mini-Tours in South Florida for two winters while spending the summers becoming a PGA Member through the Village Links of Glen Ellyn. In 1996 Woody became the Head Golf Professional , a tenure he held until 2000. During the next 6 years he owned his own indoor instruction facility helping students of all abilities and levels. Also co-hosted 5 Televison shows on CLTV with golfers calling in for “Live” Instruction.  Woody guided four of his junior students to all-state honors and  two College golf Scholarships.   Woody has worked with Mac O’Grady and Mike Bender and credits these as well as Dr. Jim Suttie as being influences on his teaching.

His teaching philosophy is to teach the fundamentals and show the students ball flight laws and principles.  This can be done by showing how and why the ball curves and how swing path and clubface angle cause the ball to move left or right, forward and straight as well as low and high.  My goal is to teach and guide you on to why this happens and together we figure out the best way for you to get the most out of your ability.  We do this through communication, drills, and video if needed. You would be amazed how easy this can be accomplished!    There is no substitute for practice as long as it is with a purpose.  Then we take your game to the course and free up your mind to allow you to perform with targets and different obstacles.

Woody has Completed 10 Marathons with his best time 2:59 --- Anybody up for Speed Golf!
