Hollenback Golf ClubGolf Venue in Wilkes Barre, PA

I have traveled all over the United States to attend numerous golf academies in order to learn and understand all aspects of the game. The National Academy of Sports Medicine in California for Golf Fitness Specialist training. The PING Academy in Arizona for club fitting and club making/ repair. The Titleist Performance Institute in California to become a Certified Instructor Pro. The Butch Harmon School of Golf Instructors in Las Vegas to learn from one of the greatest minds in golf. I began my journey as a PGA apprentice at the age of 14 at an offcial PGA recognized Golf Academy. Now at 38 years old, I am the 1st Assistant Pro and Head Instructor there. I have worked in all areas of golf to provide students a vast understanding of the game but more importantly, how the industry works. I currently compete on a pro tour and while at events, I like to meet reps and other coaches so I may keep up with the latest emerging techniques and equipment developments in the game. My goal is to get you to play GOOD golf. And with my approach to the game I assure you that whatever skill level you are, we will enhance it together through a clear understanding of the secrets of the game and our hard work together!! My students on average with my program have shaved 10-15 strokes per round off of their game after working with me. I look forward to helping you enjoy the game you love even more!!!

"My son had the pleasure of working with Kris during his high school golf seasons. I can confidently say that his golf game improved—and so did his ability to laugh at himself and overcome the mental roadblocks that come with the sport. Lessons were always relaxed, very relevant, encouraging, and just the right mix of helpful instruction and good humor. Even on days when his swing/golf game had a mind of its own, he left the lesson feeling motivated, smiling, and anxious to put into practice the lessons that he learned. Kris is a great teacher who knows how to make golf enjoyable while still helping you get better. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to improve their game without losing their sanity!
