Hi! I’m Craig-a skilled instructor and patient teacher of golf, dedicated to helping students of all levels improve their game and enjoy golf:) I’ve competed in amateur tournaments around the world, gaining valuable insights along the way. My experience allows me to customize lessons for each student’s needs and skill sets. I have learned how to get each student, regardless of skill level, to square the club-face through impact which is the most important aspect of the golf swing. My Master’s Degree in Sports Psychology from Purdue University allows me to explain concepts in a way that my students understand. My goal is to empower each player to their full potential and ensure my students reach their individual goals. I truly look forward to hearing from you:)
