With decades of experience playing and approaching a decade of coaching, I am deeply immersed in the world of golf. A member of the Colorado Golf Association and boasting a USGA GHIN Handicap in the single digits. I'm now focusing on helping others. From receiving repeat special invitations to prestigious events like the Golfweek US Senior Challenge to participating in PGA-sanctioned events, I've now transitioned into coaching. Hailing from Ventura County, CA, I developed an enduring love for the game from a young age. Today, I find myself even more passionate about golf, honored to coach others professionally. With patience and understanding, I tailor my instruction to each golfer's unique learning style, swing, and goals, ensuring the easiest route to success. Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out, I'm here to help you elevate your game and follow your passion for golf.

Can you say 'optimistic.' Well its how I feel after a series of lessons from Mr Powell. You totally understand me and my abilities. We worked at a pace equivalent to my game. This has been a pleasing experience. I don't mind spending big bucks on new clubs now, b/c Im certain on one thing, it'll be money well spent, similar to my lessons with you. Knocking 'em straight and bending the ball now too, never thought that was possible. But draws are now my go to (getting those much needed extra yards to be competitive at the club). Way to go James, please be free to share my words to hopefully help others. Appreciate ya!

'I am grateful to James for helping my 10th grade HS kid with their golf instruction. They had aspirations to make the HS golf team (next year as a Junior). James worked with us for 20 sessions over 2 months; low and behold, they made the HS team. What makes us so appreciative, is my kid had only played recreational golf for a couple of years. So James' instruction coupled with my kid's desire, made it a success. If you have the chance to book with James, I suggest you do so'

I can't say enough good about my coach JP. He met me at a location away from his normal coaching golf courses. That was impressive. Things got better too. He allowed the use of his own extra set of clubs, left handed none the less. It's rare for someone to be as accommodating in this day and age. Oh and the lesson, super valuable. I'll be back for more.

My gratitude to you James is authentic. You've made golf fun again. After losing my husband (who was my golf coach for yrs), I did not feel I'd be back playing, ever. My group encouraged me to get back, and after our lessons, I'll be playing again. Your even-tempted care for this old lady's game was 2nd to none. One more time, thank you sooo much.

'A great big THANKS to JP (James). I finally beat my brother over 18 holes for the first time. It came down to chipping and putting. Which I've been less-than-average my whole life, till now. Thank you again. I was asked, ""Would I recommend James to friends and/or family"", I am enthusiastic to report YES, indeed I would.'
