Happy Holidays from the Nelsons! 

The late, great, golf teacher Harvey Penick once said," If you are a golfer, you are my friend".

Dear Friends,
The growth of my brain cancer has "taken a toll" on my left side, making it difficult to stand for any length of time, and at times, hard to walk.  My heart is willing, but my body is telling me to take a little time off, rest and enjoy the holidays with my family.

Thank you for all of your prayers and support, and I look forward to see you back on the lesson tee soon.
I will be returning calls after the 1st of the year and hope to start our "09" January winter program.

I also want to thank you for allowing me to be your teacher, my pleasure and honor.

"For the love of the game",
Larry & Family

Congratulations to Larry on being voted as one of the top three instructors in Minnesota by his fellow Professionals as listed in Golf Digest!
