By Mike Jamison

ORLANDO, FL (Oct. 19, 2004) – Eagle Creek Golf Club in south Orlando is the new home to the renowned Graves Golf Academy.

Based on the swing theories of the person Lee Trevino called "the world’s best ball striker," Moe Norman, the Graves Golf Academy offers a variety of learning experiences.

Eagle Creek Golf ClubTim and Todd Graves' goal is to help each student reach his/her true potential, and they utilize their "Seven Principles of Golf Improvement" to do just that.

"We are proud of our new relationship with Todd and Tim Graves," said Gary Piotrowski, General Manager at Eagle Creek. "They bring a level of professionalism that we strive for each day here at Eagle Creek. It is a nice match."

The Seven Principles teaching philosophy employed by the Graves Golf Academy allows golfers to gauge their games in each specific area compared to a scratch golfer. By understanding and applying the Seven Principles, golfers can focus on areas of weakness in their games and work to strengthen their strongest areas to shortcut the process of achieving goals.

The Seven Principles are:
  1. Develop a Sound, Repeatable, Powerful Swing of Ease based on Moe Norman’s Golf Swing. (Single Plane / Straight Line Motion)
  2. Develop an efficient Short Game (50% up and down)
  3. Become a good Putter (Under 30 putts per round)
  4. Build or buy Clubs That Fit your game
  5. Learn to Play on the course using developed skills (Course Management)
  6. Learn How to Practice efficiently
  7. Learn How to Think

Eagle Creek, the outstanding new Ron Garl/Howard Swan design, is located just minutes from Orlando International Airport, and course officials made sure golfers can take full advantage of the prime location.

They are making it easy for travelers to schedule their final round of the golf vacation at Eagle Creek by offering first-class clubhouse facilities – men’s and women’s locker-rooms with showers, and an outstanding restaurant with quick-service meals.
