Learn Golf with Kyle
💰$156 weekly lessons
I’m a proud graduate of the Campbell University PGA Golf Management (PGM) program, class of 2012, and have been passionate about teaching golf since my high school days, when I started helping my coach run junior camps. I was fortunate to serve as captain of my varsity golf team all four years and earned All-State and All-Section honors as a junior and senior. Golf has always been a big part of my life, but nothing means more to me than family. I’m a down to earth family man, happily married to my amazing wife of 10 years. We’re raising two wonderful kids, a fun-loving 4-year-old son and a sweet 9-month-old daughter along with our energetic chocolate lab.

Youth players
Working with kidsWhen working with kids recommend the child be at least 5 or 6 and has the patience and attention span for at least 30 minutes. Been teaching junior golf for a long time and it’s all about keeping it fun and easy to understand
