Direct peers

• Leadbetter Golf Academy: Leadbetter Golf Academy is a globally recognized premium golf instruction brand with locations in multiple countries. Comparable to GOLFTEC as a premium international instruction brand serving serious golfer segments.
• Butch Harmon's School of Golf: Butch Harmon's School of Golf is a high-end instruction brand operated at multiple premium courses, focused on elite and serious recreational golfers. Comparable as premium instruction, though without GOLFTEC's proprietary AI swing capture.
