5 Years of Progress with Our Members. From the First Store in Gotokuji to Nationwide Expansion.

Mitsuhashi Pro & Ai Shinozaki Pro Appear! A Talk Session Addressing Amateur Concerns.
As the main content of the event, we invited two popular professionals, Yoshiichi Mitsuhashi, who has gained immense support on YouTube and other platforms, and the accomplished Ai Shinozaki Pro.
Based on questionnaires collected from members in advance, the talk session focused on practical themes such as "specific methods to increase driving distance" and "mental management techniques to overcome tension during rounds," which many amateur golfers face. Participating members eagerly listened to the explanations from the top professionals' unique perspectives.
