**A little about your PGA Professional
We at Thruway Golf Center are very proud to introduce our new PGA Professional, Craig Knight. Craig is originally from the area, growing up and graduating from Forestville High School in the early 80's. He was a great athlete here in Chautauqua County and well known. He lettered in Football, Basketball and Baseball for 3 straight years at FHS. He picked up golf when he was 16 and took his first lesson from local great Jack Schubert at Shorewood CC, but did not really pursue the game in high school.  Craig went to college at the University of New Mexico where he studied Physical Education, played basketball for 1 year, then transferred to Eastern New Mexico and played on the Tennis team for 1 year there. Craig came back to Western New York in 1993 and worked at Tri-County that season and got his first taste of the golf business. He then decided on a career as a Golf Professional and moved to Florida in the early part of "94" where he promptly passed his PAT (players ability test which is a prerequisite for becoming a PGA Professional), then continued his studies and received full membership in the PGA of America (the largest working Sports organization in the world) in 2000.

Craig has worked at several prominent clubs in Florida as well as the New England area and Conewango Valley right here at home. While in Florida, he worked for and studied under some of the top 100 instructors in the country such as Mike Bender and Craig Shankland. He has been around and learned from some of the legends of the game like Sam Snead, Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. He has taken lessons from and picked the brain of some of the greatest teachers in the history of the game. People like David Leadbetter, Eddie Merrins (the "Little Pro"), and Bob Toski. He has played golf and received on course advice for such greats as Paul Azinger, Rocco Mediate and Tony Jacklin who won the US and British open both in 1970). He has developed a teaching philosophy that is second to none and he is here to share it with you.
