Private Golf Lessons & Coaches in Parker Ford, PA

Unlock your golfing potential with personalized instruction. As an amateur golfer with 35 years of experience, I tailor my approach to suit your individual needs. I blend proven techniques with an engaging style to help you achieve your goals.

I always start a lesson with a new student with the understanding that not all players learn the same way. For my visual learners I employ V1 Golf Video analysis which we can also send to the student so they can review it between lessons. For my kinesthetic learners we use a variety of training aids to help them feel the differences with actual body motions. For students that are audio learners we will have more of a conversation and explanation discussion that will also include a bit of quizzing to help them remember our processes. While lowering scores and hitting your clubs farther are important, I also like to asses the student’s goals and aspirations that will help guide them to be a better player and create a more fun and enjoyable atmosphere with their game.

With a lifelong immersion in golf, I bring over 40 years of experience, including competing as an NCAA athlete. My passion is to help students of all levels reach their full potential while enjoying the game.

Since being introduced to golf at a young age, I have been passionate about bettering myself and others at the game. From playing at the high school, college, and playing in professional tournaments, I have spent the last 7 years as a caddie. While the winter months would bring me to the tropics of Jupiter, Florida, the arrival of my son this year has given me the motivation to help better the greater Philadelphia and Lehigh Valley areas full time. I have a unique approach- I will not hook you up to wires or devices or stress about what your swing speed is, as no two swings are the same. Golf is 90% mental, and I will help you master course management while teaching you how to address each and every shot. You cannot get better at anything by sitting around, so let’s use these cold winter months to personalize YOUR game through the eyes of a caddie, so that your friends and family will be shocked this spring when you tee it up!

Having grown up playing golf alongside my uncle, who worked for the Ryder Cup, I was fortunate to witness numerous professional golfers in action. This exposure fueled my passion for the game and instilled in me a deep appreciation for its intricacies. With a wealth of experience in teaching children, my approach prioritizes creating a fun and enjoyable learning environment while imparting essential golfing skills.
