My son is making great progress in just a couple of lessons and most importantly he’s really enjoying learning. Tom has been great and exactly how I wanted his introduction to golf to go.

I recently had the pleasure of taking lessons from Tom, and I can honestly say that he is one of the best golf instructors in Dallas. He has a great knowledge of the game and is able to explain each concept clearly so that I can understand and apply them during my rounds. He has a great teaching style that is both patient and motivating. Highly recommend Tom!

Tom is an experienced instructor who knows how to tailor his teaching to each individual student. Tom is always available to answer questions and has really helped me to improve my game. Highly recommend!!

Tom is a great instructor. He has great knowledge of the game but also has great patience as an instructor. The thing that impressed me is he took extra time to go to the PGA store with me to help me select the right clubs based off where my game was at currently. If you are looking to improve, Tom is your guy.

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonNormally in the first lesson I want to focus on grip and balance because without those its impossible to build a good swing.
Lesson 11+From here we look at special shots like chipping bunker shots and putting
Lesson 4-10At this point i want to bring in targeting and learning to make sure you are aimed at the target and can hit that target
Lesson 2-3Lesson 2&3 is swing basics and ball position. We then move on to basic shots and start to build a reliable repeatable swing

Working with kidsWorking with kids is different but rewarding nonetheless. I want to give them the basics but always stay positive. Its so easy these days for kids to get down on themselves when they stumble or fail. I often use the sandwich approach by complementing them on something they did right then look at something to fix and then come right back and talk about another positive thing they did.
What you need to bringI highly recommend bringing your own clubs as well as a bottle of water. In the fall you might want a pull over that keeps you warm but allows you to swing freely.
What I can bringI have a used set of clubs that beginners can use to start with but depending on the students height they may be too tall or too stiff. I strongly encourage students to bring their own clubs because your swing can change drastically if you are using the wrong equipment
