Sandbaggers Golf SpotGolf Venue in San Jose, CA

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:)

" Sunil has been helping me with my golf game since 2022, and the progress I’ve made has been incredible. His understanding of swing mechanics is amazing, and he has helped me improve every aspect of my game, including my short game. Thanks to his coaching, my handicap dropped from 20 all the way down to 9. What I appreciate most is that he worked within my limitations and focused on small adjustments that made the biggest difference. I highly recommend Sunil to anyone looking to improve their golf game. On top of being an outstanding coach, he’s a genuinely great person to work with—friendly, approachable, and always smiling!
