John Hughes Golf returns to Florida for fall and winter schools

John Hughes Golf is shifting back to central Florida after a sold-out summer residency at Omni Homestead Resort in Virginia. The Orlando-based instruction company says demand for one-day and two-day schools near ChampionsGate will rise as winter visitors arrive.

Why it matters: - John Hughes Golf expects strong seasonal demand from Florida’s winter golf market as snowbirds return to central Florida. - The company’s in-person schools, virtual coaching and free online resources give golfers multiple ways to get instruction before peak season fills up.
