Playing the game of golf can be a lifelong endeavour. Even at the highest level of Professional golf, players that make a living playing this game are seeking the advice and guidance of swing, mental and physical coaches.
I have a passion for the game of golf. For thirty-two years, I have played this game competitively in six Canadian provinces, seven American states and Mexico. I have been a member of the Canadian P.G.A. since 1991 and have focused my career on instruction and coaching exclusively since 2002.
I know that improvement is a combination of more than one thing:
- Improving your knowledge of your golf swing
- Not the golf swing that you see on T.V. or in books, videos or magazines.
- Knowing what, when and how to practice
- Proper practice will prepare you both physically and mentally for the golf course
- Understanding your physical limitations
- What your body can do now, as oppose to what you think it can do
- Fostering your spirit of the game – what drives you to become better?
- Do you want to spend more quality with your spouse?
- Are you trying to achieve a personal goal?
- Are you required to entertain clients and play golf as part of your Profession?
- Is improvement for lifelong enjoyment of the Game?
My services include GROUP LESSONS for Juniors and Adults, CLINICS to sharpen specific parts of your game and PRIVATE COACHING to meet any individuals schedule and personal needs.
Both Group and Private programs involve improvements to swing and short game techniques. But they also address your knowledge and understanding of these skills, the mental disciplines required to maintain clear and focused thoughts, emotional stability to manage highs and lows during practice and play, tactical and on-course strategies to suit your skill set.
Here are some guidelines for you to choose which lessons are right for you.
If you are learning the game, focus your lesson on solidifying your fundamentals:
- Grip – your connection to the shaft and club face
- Stance – your connection to the ground
- Posture – permits the body to move with the greatest efficiency
If you have some experience, focus your goals on improving your knowledge of your game:
- How your starting position affects direction and contact
- Understand conditions of impact
- Why routines are important
- Are all of your clubs correctly fitted to suit you, versus you making adjustments to suit your clubs
Advanced Players can use my years of playing and tournament experiences to prepare them for new challenges. Whether it’s learning a new shot or ball flight, improving your scoring abilities or changing your thought processes, I can guide your journey.
