New GOLF Academy LOGO

Vision Quest Golf Academy

Hi...My name is Jacques Panet-Raymond and I am a PGA Master Professional leaving a golf academy to develop my own. I have been specializing in developing young talent to fulfill their dreams. I mostly work with a few very serious golfers on a very personal basis....the "Jerry Maguire" concept....less clients and more personal attention.

I am looking for a logo that will be work on stationary and business cards, but more importantly will eventually stand alone without the need for the words, "Vision Quest Golf Academy". I will be using the logo on the bottom of golf bags which will be seen on TV during tournaments, Hats, shirts, etc.

I would like to be able to have a logo that incorporates the name but also can eliminate the name and stand alone. The stand alone logo should be catchy, classy, possibly colorful, but should entice people to ask..."what does that stand for" or "where does that come from"?

My Academy is unique in that I offer the highest level of instruction AND I have a close relationship with all of my students. Tha majority of which are young juniors playing high level tournament golf.

I do not want to use clip art and I am open to all forms of design from modern art to cartoon to symbolic, etc.

My #1 audience is parents of golfing children in the community. They are looking for an instructor who their child would connect with and who they can build a relationship with. They want the best for their kids at a good price. Who doesnt?

#2 Audience is the kids themselves. When they see the top golfers around wearing the logo it will speak volumes allowing me to increase my fees and profits in the long run.

I would like something in the logo that shouts "GOLF" whether it be a ball, or club(s), or Flagstick, hole....something that obviously associates with golf.
Be CREATIVE. Maybe incorporating the 3 elements of training I use...Mental, Physical, and Golf Swing???

I also wear a hat that has become a trademark...it is in the picture attachment for your info. It may be used too.
